This abstract will discuss the many improvement made to the Multi-wires (SEMs –Secondary Emission Monitors) design due to increased vacuum requirements driven by the NUMI beam line and future increase of beam intensity to assist in meeting HEP goals. At Fermi we have several types of multiwire configurations. Some of the nomenclature used for identification of the multi-wires is: Numi (modified Gloor2) See Fig. 1. Gloor 2 (Standard) see Fig 2 , 8 GEV (figure 3, Dual Plane (folding modification of the Gloor2). – see Fig. 4 & 5.
A few of the changes that were done are mechanical, material, and the process to build and install the detectors in the beam line will be discussed. Key Players in no specific order are: Dan Schoo, Rick Pierce, Wanda Newby, Gianni Tassotto, Doug Jensen, Manfred Wendt, Gary Crutcher, Randy Wyatt, Paul Gentry, Scott McCormick.
Some of the funding and/or experiments that aided in inspiring ideas: U.S. Dept. of Energy, Fermi, NoVa, Numi, University of Texas, and individuals who always like to improve things.
