Agenda

Present:
Seamus, Caryn, Nickie, Bob, Ciprian, Josh, Kent, Juliette, Guido, Tyler

Parity run summary by Ciprian
- Read out beam monitors amd Lumi using VQWK modules
- Caryn and Tyler looking at data
- Halo motion mechanism did not work so commissioning did not complete
MOLLER commissioning completed
11 GeV send through the Compton chicane but background at the photon detector is above the specifications
Radiation Review
- 10^13 equivalent 1 MeV neutron spectrum requirement was even met during PREX-I where HRS power supplies were kept.
- PREX-I neutron flux was enough to blow opto-couplers but within the specs for silicon to prevent any radiation damages
- We need to have a coherent story for why we know PREX-II is better thatn PREX-I
- Still planning to have the collaboration meeting in end of January or February 2016
  - Priorities are radiation and activation issues during decommissioning, vacuum chamber design, Calcium target will be the serious issues, and various engineering items including septum and scattering chamber design
  - We also need to understand the PREX/CREX acceptance with SOS quads.

It would be nice to have real-time viewer for optics studies in commissioning (discussed in 01/16/2014 meeting)
