=====June 8, 2012 Meeting Minutes===== ===Present=== Zibi, Mike, Jack, Suwat, Rachel, Chris, Bill, Bec, Dan, Betty ====Group Business==== * Lab phasing out SSH client for something else * Deletion of experimental accounts: visiting people need a solution * Syracuse conference: if want to go, submit an abstract with results to Bill and Betty. * The theory library is moving/turning into an office. No meetings there any more * HiRA Lab updates: no internet yet. Zibi proposed a permanent solution and computer group will take care of it * We also have a proposal for the clean power * New HiRA silicon E came, Mike will check pin sizes * Work for undergrads week of June 18 when half of group gone: Mike typed up and sent to Bill and Betty * Rachel will organize HiRA cabinet to make room for TPC stuff. * Shipping out to storage: an ongoing project.... * In High Bay: get rid of miniball container/cart. Put lexan boxes onto roof * Send Brahms TPC to WMU * CAEN HV: put in locked cage on roof. * Lab watch: Suwat this week, all is good. Mike next week. * Upcoming experiments: RIKEN has only enough money to run two months not three. If that happens, we will probably get pushed back to the spring * REU student working with Suwat ====Updates==== * Dan: working on GEANT simulations * Rachel: For e05049: electronics issue on one bank of miniball. * Suwat: lexan sheet in for TPC * Jack: CRDC correction: slope and offset correction not enough,will need to correct nonlinearity as well * Mike: checking if low thresholds have caused weirdness in t/3He spectra. Look to see in centrality cut * Zibi: Ca+Ca spectra by centrality cuts. Systems see almost no sensitivity through mid-rapidity range
