Minutes of the BEAST meeting
Friday October 2nd 12:00 JST
Diodes:
Mosfets and RTDs were reported to be okay by Leon and
Ascelin. All the diodes, 12 modules (24 diodes) are all tested to be okay.
Drift Tubes :
Drift chambers (pulses) are essentially functional, but there
are some time-dependent and e-hut/module dependent
problems for a few channels. We have identified most of
sources, and eliminated some. Other problems will be
sorted out in coming days.
Haba San will try to prepare some lead shielding
for Beast preamps.
Sahu will make some source holders for Cd sources.
CsI(Tl) :
CsI group is working on their DAQ for Beast CsI.
Crystals will be available by end of Oct. Installation
will be early Nov.
KEK-B :
We requested Funakoshi San for the following :
(i) a Beast lattice that we can start with. The lattice
will be finalized by end of Oct. But before that,
he will provide a working(approximate) version soon.
(ii) to prepare a BPM and an RF pick up for
Beast trigger.(iii) to provide data file format for magnet
and vacuum parameters. These will be used and exchanged in
KEKB-BEAST database.
Now the priority is software - simulation, analysis and
KEKB--BEAST interface.
