  • Lab Update
    • Connected Side1-readout HV board. Took 20V data - looks good.
      • empirical NTL gain = 7.1, a little higher than expected 6.3
      • noised width reduced from ~130 eV to ~ 22 eV
    • Set up remote-control HV, took 100V data
      • Couldn't get power relay setup to work (this is a failsafe to turn off the HV supply if the DCRC control voltage disappears). Not sure this is necessary.
  • Priority Updates
  • General Updates
    • Himangshu
      • Implementing changes to initial fridge diagram
      • Run 71 partition and delay plots for suggestions
    • Shubham
      • Working on Geant4 k100sim simulation.
      • Played with the detectorConstrction.cc file on my local machine to understand the detector geometry.
      • Side view:
      • Top view:
      • Bottom view:
      • Github repo to evolving code: https://github.com/spandeyehep/k100sim
      • Adding sensitive detectors to the geometry.
      • Failed attempts to make Geant4 visualization work on cdms2 machine: Chad is suggesting to use a Docker or singularity container image file which makes it platform independent. Any suggestions?
