So, we pursue the development of the sci-fi detector interleaved with the sample flasks. * AK presented the [raw-attachment:Simulations.pdf slides]. Points noted: * Two proton energy ranges to be considered: 130--180 MeV; 60--120MeV. Proton energy spread ~1.5%. * Dose rates over flask surface: 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 6 Gy. Delivered in spots of dimension 0.3x0.3 cm^2^. Each 'spot' has a fraction of the total dose, so that the dose to the flask adds up to the numbers given above. * Flask sizes: 3x1.5 cm^2^ and 8x5 cm^2^. * !SmartPhanton or iPhantom ... we discussed. Eventually, VB observed that iPhantom sounded too much like !EyePhanton. So, we've adopted !SmartPhantom. * Towards a concept and specification for end station; discussion: All * Working towards proposal for 'LARA' or a part of LARA on the timescale of Dec/Jan. * We '''agreed''' to work on a specification/simulation of the endstation since this was a critical piece of the specification for LARA. * HT would work with SG and be the interface to Impeiral for both the SmartPhanton and the LARA endstation design.
