Minutes

  1. Announcements, Minutes from Previous Meeting, Action Items:
    1. Minutes: Zisis reviewed the minutes,

    2. Expected Dynamic Range: Maria presented studies on the dynamic range.  Norbert added that the 64 channels HGCROC produces 5 W power, whereas the new 3x 108 channel will be around 6W.
    3. SiPM neutron irradiation test: Bo Gyeong gave a presentation on the irradiation test in Korea.  The performance of S13 and S14 SiPMs were compared.  Signals on oscilloscope, leakage current and I-V curves were presented.  Maria suggested that the numbers be converted to 1MeV-neutron-equivalent. 
  3. Any other business: none
  4. Action Items:
    1. Zisis to send Tegan’s acrylic light guide test results to KNU.
  5. Next meeting: 
    1. July 8 but this will be confirmed.
