Meeting Minutes April 20, 2012

Present

Zibi, Dan, Rachel, Mike, Suwat, Bec, Jon B, Jack, Bill

Group Business

Lab Move

  • Paul Z out today, wall connections are done, Zibi will look over them with Paul on Monday
  • Will not yet have eyewash station, so will move electronics racks and chambers and not put much on the left-hand side at first
  • Probably moving next week?
  • Will be doing STAR FEE testing next week, would like to use the new lab space

Scheduling

  • No updates on Intra
  • Lee is thinking of doing an experiment at TAMU with 4 DE and E detectors (no CsI's). Maybe we want to run in tandem?

Updates

  • Dan: GEANT code from Mike F, strange (not smooth) efficiency in neutron wall bars as a function of E.
  • Talked to MONA, recommended Menate_R… smooth efficiency curve!
  • Mike: Examining the geometric LASSA efficiencies, irregularities
  • Compare efficiency between Sn beams, energies, just protons, all particles… all curves different, mostly not smooth (would expect taking a ratio to make a smooth curve by cancelling out effects)
  • Bec has been working on TPC
  • Zibi: looking at pBUU calculations for Ca+Ca collisions with a stiff EOS
  • boosting the deuteron cross section by 4, does not change t, 3He significantly but influences p,n
