SJ, RR' and MH need to register for PTCOG.

JO:

• Group placement coming up with Valtech working on NHS patient data.
• Two HEP exams in January.
• Enrolled on Simon Arridge's Inverse Problems course.
• Working through CERN Geant4 examples.
• To Do:
  • Contact Adam Gibson and arrange meeting to discuss Birmingham scintillator measurements.
  • Ask Adam about building scintillator simulations in Geant4.

OM:

• Managed to run Clatterbridge simulation in Geant4:
  • Not sure if it finished properly...
  • MH suggests using smaller number of particles.
• Need to start working on BDSIM with CAD model:
  • Have already run 1 tutorial.
  • Will contact James Chappell to get contact details for Laurie Nevay.

FFF:

• Collated data for photodiodes: will put together presentation.
• Need to find out input specs of DDC1128.

SS:

• Analysed all data from Birmingham experimental runs:
  • Eyepatch data gives excellent match with Caen spectra.
  • Working on matching Caen and Lecroy spectra by minimising a chi^2.
• To Do:
  • Do binning manually in 4D histogram.
  • Scale spectra data for chi^2 fitting.
  • Retrieve tracker data from Tony Price.

LK

• Analysed some of the mixed beam data from Heidelberg.
• To Do:
  • Plan next Heidelberg test.
