For the uRWELL upgrade, a very modest R&D plan for prototyping a medium size uRWELL detector will go a long way in dissipating all the skepticism and fears for new technology.

<li>uRWELL will truly represent a major upgrade relative to GEMs on many levels (lower material budget, no spacer) at a lower cost and far lower construction risk, but it is a detector that was never ran in an experiment so far and many people have reservation
about it. <br>
</li><li>If we can build a small prototype of the detector we are proposing for PRad-II that could be tested in beam test within a year, we can demonstrate that it is a low risk high reward option even compared to the GEM that worked very well for PRad

Hi Dipangkar,<br>
<br>
Congratulations to All and especially to you for the approval<br>
of the PRad-II proposal with an "A" rating. The rating itself<br>
is saying many things!!!<br>
<br>
For the conditions: we kind of expected this outcome, we are asking<br>
a significant setup upgrade (~$6-7M), quite naturally they are asking<br>
to work with the Lab and find out how. The condition is packaged as<br>
both the micro-well GEMs and the HyCal upgrade.<br>
<br>
I agree, we have to insist for the HyCal upgrade, that is critical<br>
for this experiment and several others which will come later.<br>
<br>
For the DRad: the PAC decided to not give us both, so it is still<br>
alive. We will come to the DRad once we are very close (or done)<br>
with the PRad-II.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
