SmartPhantom meeting: Wednesday 14^th August 2019, 11:00 BST

Notes:

Present: KL, JT, AK, HTL

1. Notes and actions from last meeting:
   • KL: Liaise to develop concept for polishing.
     • Ongoing. Keep action to make sure it stays in our minds.
   • KL: Define light exclusion scheme for 527.
     • Ongoing. Will use conbination of plastic covers. Need to liaise with occupants of 527 and the offices next door. AK will forward information to KL who will order additional material.
   • KL: Inform MP of present design of support mechanism and discuss/identify any issues.
     • Done. AK, HTL, and KL met MP on 13Aug19. The scheme proposed by LC was discussed and accepted in principle. It was agreed to propose the following modifications to LC:
       • Station 1 (counting from the beam direction) should be mounted independently so that it remains in a fixed, reference location during the exposures.
       • Stations 2 to 5 (assuming we use 5) should be mounted separately with a mounting arrangement that allows the required variety of positions to be used.
       • The mounting scheme needs also to have some fixing mechanism.
   • AK: Prepare paperwork necessary to gain permission to work with source in 527.
     • Ongoing. AK has been liasing with the RPA at Imperial to generate the necessary paper work. Outstanding items include the personnel registration.

2. Baseline schedule and progress against schedule: HTL
   
   • Progress against baseline schedule.
     • Points noted:
       • LabView: testing of code developed by AK using the stages in 527 did not work. LabView was not able to identify stages. Example executable works OK; so stages are OK.
       • Image analysis: essentially complete, at least for present stage of development.
       • Confirm with pottoing lab people afternoon.

3. Mechanical design/manufacture update: JT for LC
   
   • JT will contact OM to see whether the components have been dispached from the manufacturer.

4. Control system and SciWire readout update: AK
   
   • Main LabVIEW interface is being written. Issue is that the first test of communication between the LabVIEW and the stage.
   • HighSpec laptop now with AK and installation will begin soon.
   • No delivery time on second LapTop. AK will chase.

5. Simulation/analysis update: HTL
   
   • Simulation of Epoxy/Mylar for Potting.
     • See slides; points noted:
       • Prefered scheme (1mm resin on both sides of station) shows detectors absorb more energy. Scheme with mylar layer is better in that energy lost is smaller.
       • Scheme will be discussed Resin Lab people tomorrow.

6. Next steps
   
   • Assemble winding jig and prepare winding assembly by the end of next week.
   • Define potting scheme so that detailed design can be done when LC is back from holiday.

7. DONM
   
   • 21Aug19

8. AoB
   
   • None.

Summary of actions:

• KL: Liaise to develop concept for polishing.
• KL: Define light exclusion scheme for 527.
• AK: Prepare paperwork necessary to gain permission to work with source in 527.
• AK: Pass details of second laptop to KL so that delivery can be followed in AK's absense.
