1.) Chamber:
A series of
CAD drawings has been done representing the final design of the
GEM foils for the region 1 tracking system. The design is
based upon the conclusions made in a
previous report.
The report concluded that a
trapazoidal shape 23 cm high and 11 cm wide
would cover the elasticly scattered elecron envelope.
NOTE: I added 1cm in height to the CAD drawings for good measure.
2.)Readout electronics

trip in January to CERN in order to be trained on the
readout system and establish the infrastructure for a
purchase.
