• SmartPhantom update.
• Round table.
• A.O.B.

Notes

Present: HT, Juergen, Will, Ajit

• Gabor lens - JPo
  • Lens is disassembled.
  • Currently doing modification drawings to the lens before it is re-assembled.
  • Pump repair will cost £4k
    • Bearings damaged.

• SciWire - AK
  • Source tests did not produced scintillation light. Rate from the source was much less than expected.
  • Could test with collimated torch to investigate cross-talk.
  • Tests now concluded as lab space is needed for the SmartPhantom.
• SmartPhantom - HT
  • Discussing the aperture and frame thicknesses. Smaller aperture prototype resolved warping but aperture is a bit too small.
  • Test to illuminate a single fibre longitudinally.
    • Test optics, readout and image processing software.
• Round table - Will
  • Can spend more time on CCAP work.
  • BDSIM can't do injection and extraction.
  • Collating a list of things needed for the simulation.
  • FFA ring, need to think about how to implement the magnetic field.
  • Variable frequency cavities.
    • Could use a field map, have a 4D interpolator.
  • Space charge: can look at a simple component with and without space charge.
• AOB
  • New server
    • Nearly ready just waiting for the domain to be assigned.
    • JPo: ICT installed software and licenses on previous server.
    • Install Inventor.
  • Imperial account for Will
