      Hi Mauri,<br class="">
      <br class="">
      As far as I am aware, there is a problem using C4F8O in the LTCC
      because  the PMTs used are optimized for the light produced in
      that gas. The wavelength of the Cerenkov light is different for
      C4F8O than C4F10. The PMTs are optimized for the light produced in
      C4F10. Stepan reported this result after testing with the C4F8O
      gas several years ago.<br class="">

      F2 Chemicals is the only vendor of this gas that I am aware of.<br class="">

                                          this run. This amount of gas

                                          <br class="">
                                          Assuming an average leak rate

                                          time, an additional 175 Kg of
                                          C4F10 gas should be purchased
