GlueX TOF Meeting, April 12, 2012
Minutes

    Present:
      * FSU: Paul Eugenio, Sasha Ostrovidov, Randall Smith, Ian Winger
      * JLab: Eugene Chudakov, Chuck Hutton, Mark Ito (chair), Tim
        Whitlatch, Beni Zihlmann

Contract

    Mark finally got the proposal materials from Procurement. He will be
    sending it out to the Technical Review committee soon.

PMT Purchase

    Procurement received a bid from a vendor. Evaluation is underway.

Calibration and Alignment

    Sasha agreed to write something up about how we plan to calibrate the
    TOF. Mark suggested with a wiki page outlining the ideas; essentially a
    conceptual design of the calibration process. We will need something
    like this before the Software Review in early June. A full GlueX note
    should follow when plans are more detailed.

Technical Design Report Contribution

    Paul agreed to look over what exists now and update the appropriate
    section.

Mechanical Design

    Tim and Chuck presented a [22]new idea for the mechanical support. The
    new design was motivated by two requirements, (a) that we support the
    light guides at some point close to the PMT's and (b) that we not put
    pressure on the scintillator surfaces. This lead to a scheme where the
    light guides are supported at two points, one near the joint with the
    scintillator as in the previous design, but also with a collar just on
    the in-board side of the steel magnetic shield.

    Chuck will draw up another iteration of the concept and send it to the
    FSU design team for their review and comments.

    Once a design is agreed on, we will build a full-scale mock-up of the
    center section of the array to test the ideas. The counter line-up will
    be:
     1. full
     2. half-width
     3. half-length
     4. half-length
     5. half-width
     6. full
