AWAKE Spectrometer meeting - 17/Jan/2017

Present: Fearghus, Lawrence, Matthew, Michele, Simon, Stefano

 

Stefano

- Optical table in final position in experiment: space to move around; note that ground is sloped.

- Done orders for (uncoated) mirrors this morning.

  -> Recovered mirrors from GIF facility and to send to Thomas Schneider for testing.

- Updated versions for supports.  Focusing on larger mirrors first.

  -> Contact ESO people for their opinion on design.

-> Check that components are perpendicular to gravity, ground, or ?  Mirrors should be aligned to screen.  No wedge ?  Check and discuss with design office.

-> UPS: will look into it soon.

 

Fearghus

- From Integration meeting.  Josh and Marlene want to put a table near the spectrometer.  It is on the other side of the optical line, but affects the (emergency) access route.

  -> To ensure this does not go through light path.

  -> "Access" tunnel (between hall and camera) is not needed for anything else and so we can block off as much as we like.

- Old aluminium window received and tested.  Is 1.85 mm.  Deflection at centre is 0.1 mm.

  -> Fearghus looking at effect of air gap and will include in his write-up.

 

Lawrence

- Latest workpackage description document circulated.

  -> Lawrence to update; then Fearghus; then Stefano; and then Michele

- Lens filter

  -> Lawrence to check, send around specification and Stefano to order.

- Scintillator screen

  -> Sent an e-mail to TMS Vacuum Components who also make these screens

  -> Need to phone Scintacor.

- Water cooler

  -> Waiting for quote.

 

Michele

- Working on document describing camera DAQ.

- Acquisition with OASIS / scope ?

  - Scope can save everything, e.g. recording for a day and then transferring to PC.

  -> Decide once Michele has been to CERN in February.

 

Simon

- Old model of spectrometer, with beam dump, camera a few metres away, etc. still in the CAD drawings.

  -> Detail, send to Fearghus and have them removed.

 

Next meeting: Tuesday 31 January at 11:00 / 12:00 (UK / CERN)
