Proton Calorimetry/Meetings/2022/04/21

Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meetings, 21st April

Saad Shaikh, Simon Jolly, Raffaella Radogna

Awarded oral presentation at CALOR conference in Brighton in May.
- Booked trains/flights/hotels for PTCOG, CALOR and Pisa conferences.
Submitted 30-month research log entry.
Will start optical isolation tests using unpainted sheets and fibreLED in lab from next week.
Simulation now counts photons by sheet. Able to fit data with Bragg and quenched Bragg curves.
- Also implemented photodiodes as a sensitive detector volume, however photons do not appear to propagate to edge of detector. Will investigate this.
- Will also look into extracting high-resolution Bragg curve using testEM11 GEANT4 example.
