Proton Calorimetry/Meetings/2017/10/04

Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meeting, 20th September 2017 (D17, Physics & Astronomy, UCL)

Present

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

ABF:

• Detector simulations now working:
  • Ported from SLC5 to SL6 (Geant4.10.2).
  • Bragg curve plot inside detector fixed.
  • Can read in output files from MH's Clatterbridge simulations.
• Have heard back from Hamamatsu regarding wiring for PMT bases.

RS

• Still working with Hamamatsu to provide PMT for single module:
  • Supply last dynode stages in PMT from 2 HV PSUs.
  • Concern over no limiting resistor between HV and dynode...

MH

• Welcome back!
• Courses start next week: will add in some Medical Physics courses.
• Will look into rerunning Clatterbridge simulations to provide input for Anastasia:
• Split beamline into 3 sections:
  • Up to 1st collimator (doughnut).
  • Between doughnut and stopper.
  • After stopper.

LK:

• Transfer talk almost finished: ready for inspection...

JS:

• Updated and corrected all Geant4 tutorials.
• SJ to create a page for Eclipse tutorials.
• Will take over from Matthieu running Clatterbridge simulations...
