PrimEx Software Meeting Minutes

January 26, 2005

Present

Eric Clinton, Mark Ito, Dustin McNulty, Marvin Payen, Mike Wood

Review of Collaboration Meeting

We noted with regret that there was no final decision made to create a webpage for accessing transparencies presented at the meeting.
Dustin re-emphasized the idea of doing a crude but complete analysis as soon as possible, rather than waiting for the final tools to be developed.
We thought that the main holding points for a crude analysis right now are
- flux measurement
- dead-time corrections
- methods for using veto counter information

New Software Release Needed

Mark will try to produce one this week.

LMS Gain Corrections

Dustin reported that obtaining reliable corrections from the LMS system will be much more complicated than originally anticipated. Some systematic studies will have to be performed before we can have confidence in a calibration scheme which uses the LMS. Ilya and he are working on this.

EPICS Skims

Dustin is close to producing a database table that will allow access to all of the EPICS information written in the data stream. He is also producing a PrimEx notes describing this project.

New Meeting Time and Place

We will be meeting every Wednesday at 1:00 pm in Trailer City, room 84. The number there is (757)269-7936.
