TPC meeting Nov 18, 2020

 

-hardware

 Alexei and Nicolai another test round on adding SF4 to P10 at outer sector in clean room. Had to use +65V to get same gain as P10. Still some issues if this is ok. And will do another set of measurements in 2 weeks or so

Also working to get laser system back into shape.

Tim is installing gating grid drivers. Flemming confirmed that David is involved in get the SC for GG up and running. We should contact him for progress.

 

-software

Presentation by Yue on further check on the 3He, 4He efficiency and issues.

Presentation is linked on meeting web page.

Presented nicely where the consequences show us where there are differences splittracks, 3He vs. protons. There is still no understanding how the change in pedestal should affects stuff.

 

Discussion on run-19 alignment. Irakli has done a bit more work; he and Yuri are having discussion. Yuri shows some preliminary work documenting the different mass splitting depending on library version and corrections applied.

 

No meeting on Wed 25 just before thanksgiving.

 

Xin would like to have an updated report at next S&C meeting (not 25 either)
