Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meeting, 23rd August 2017 (D17, Physics & Astronomy, UCL)

Present

Simon Jolly, Laurent Kelleter, Anastasia Basharina-Freshville

ABF:

  • Will start writing paper today.
  • Will clone git repository from CVS.

LK:

  • Working on transfer report.
  • Will generate plot to show comparison for layered calorimeter between measured light output, reconstructed quenched Bragg curve and Bortfeld formula.

Planning for Birmingham

  • Trip to Birmingham on 23rd (today) was cancelled due to cyclotron issues.
  • Rescheduled for Friday 25th.
  • Need to make measurements with each scintillator sheet at front of scintillator stack to calibrate light output:
  • + Arrange scintillator sheets with 3 mm sheets at the front and 3.8 mm sheets in the middle; remove 10  sheets.
  • + Make a measurement with the sheets in this configuration.
  • + For each group of 3 sheets, take the front sheet out, move the 2nd and 3rd sheets forward and insert the first sheet at the back of the group. So the 2 groups of scintillators that are grouped {(1,2,3),(1,2,3)} are now grouped {(2,3,1),(2,3,1)}.
  • + Retake the measurement.
