=====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
