Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meeting, 7th March 2018 (D17, Physics & Astronomy, UCL)

Simon Jolly, Dan Walker, Anastasia Basharina-Freshville, Matthieu Hentz, Jordan Silverman, Dan Walker, Laurent Kelleter

DW:

Had discussions with Tony Price (+Mariana) at Birmingham:
- Marian has extracted timestamps for tracker data.
- Should be able to match up events from scope with tracker events.
- Now having to deal bugs in tracker reconstruction code...
Tony Price confirms an energy of 28 +/-0.15 MeV.
To Do:
- Fix bugs in tracker reconstruction code.
- Correlate with scintillator pulses.
- Create 3D dose distribution.

JS:

Working on building CAD models of Clatterbridge beamline.
Certain components are not specified correctly or overlap: SJ has provided most up-to-date drawings he has; MH will do the same.
To import models into Geant4:
- Break each model down into constituent parts.
- Create assembly of all components made of the same material.
- Export this model as an STL-File (meshed CAD model).
- Convert each material STL-File into GDML.
- Import this meshed GDML file into Geant4 as given material.
To Do:
- Finish CAD model for MH's simulation.
- Define vacuum for initial vacuum tube.
- Rerun simulations to check differences in simulations with CAD components.

LK:

Finished 3D printed cover for bridge over ISDI sensor bond wires.
To Do:
- Install software on DAQ PC: DSLR software, EPIX card drivers and software, LabView, Aspect software (once we have it).
- Test sensor.

ABF:

Scintillator sheets now polished: most of the scratches now removed.
To Do:
- Install software on DAQ PC: Caen digitiser and HV.
- Packing inventory.

MH:
