10 minBeamtime support update
  • Kayla still running Mondays for now, but no more T/Th.
  • Detector readiness:
    • 2m.1 back at MFX (cal issues?)
    • Quads back at MEC  (Same cal issues?)
    • Return ePix100#7 for repair?
    • Receive/test ePix100 spares and side-look 1mm ePix10k
    • Baseline JF and 2M 'traveller' pages on Confluence.
      • Collect and analyze any remaining in-lab test data.
30 minPriorities ReviewAll
  • 2021 events:
    • Projects new starts:
      • VFCCD/ePixM downselect → implementation of REXS for 2.2 - April 28
      • SparkPix-S Phase II (full-size ASIC for sparsification, Tixel-based) Has passed PEC
      • ePixHR IV:  Prototype detector
      • TXI Detectors (2Mp and 140kp based on ePixHR @5kHz) CDR Closed out.
      • ePixUHR (130nm TSV structure to reach 100kHz)
    • Production:
      • spare modules (0.5 & 1mm) Module order in work, new sensor order out
      • Proposed 3d copy of ePix10k2m (pending)
      • Proposed spare quads for MEC (2)
      • Proposed in-vac ePix10k2m for CXI
      • Proposed ePix10k4m
      • Proposed UED detector upgrade (2kHz, 125um sensor)
    • RIXS-CCD/cooler test and verification (shipped archon and cooler to STA)
    • HiZ collaboration tests.
    • Outreach for R&D support (SparkPix-ED, SparkPix Delta).
    • Support effort for LCLS-II-HE instruments (performance verification/implementation planning)
    • SBIR effort for UXI.


  • Group priorities review:
    • Testing
      • Setup ePix10k, ePix100, JF smalls for test in lab
      • Review with TID the stitching progress, look for improvements (meeting 2/23)
      • Can we figure out what's wrong with ePix100/7?
      • RIXS-CCD cooler test/ship plan
    • Analysis
      • Gather and process relevant commissioning data for Mp travellers on Confluence.
          • Solid pedestals
          • Noise map
          • Response uniformity (mini-X cu-fluorescence)
          • Bootstrap gain (sealed source)
          • Linearity (signal injection)
    • Documentation
      • Complete on-line travellers for Mp detectors

    • Development
      • RIXS-CCD, review engineering note with w/NEH 2.2 
      • SXR Downselect prep.  May 1?

    • Lab 'commissioning'
      • DAQ
        • Storage nodes (ordered)
        • LCLS I/II compatibility
      • BIO for racks in chase (Chris to take over hounding)


Actions:


30 minStatus

Storage nodes/servers plus user computer upgrade on order

Si sensor order out through TID for next 10k production.

Anton has MCPs, expects first tests with Timepix this week.

TID tech mtg this afternoon.  Will send reminder with topic (cal/switching, TXI QE, thermal, Ge test setup, CO2 cooler infrastructure??)

Cal status summary pls, 


CH: 

  • Ran Quad 1 at different biases.  Working analysis.
  • Pedestal scripts not working since last last update.  Need Silke's help.  Permissions issue?
  • Need function to pull spectrum (histogram) for each pixel.
  • MPOD messes up above 200V, goes higher than programmed.

RA: 

  • Meet re cooling concepts...met with Jim re outside space: not much.

KP: JSA summary list circulated

  • XPP/MFX/XCS fibers due this week, other wise need ugly solution.
  • Small Rayonix testing can be done by others.
  • XPP/XCS power cable pinout (controls needs to tell us MPOD working)


KN:

  • Spare JF Power supply received.
  • Seb looking for low-intensity diode.
  • UED MPOD?
  • Rayonix pressure issue manifold replaced, refilled, monitoring.


PH:

  • MEC ran quads this weekend, fixed med was saturating.
  • MFX 10k calibration with hockey stick has been refined slightly..2% of pixels have noisy first switch, need more uptime to test.
  • Circular connectors tough to release...special tool?
  • UXI IoC update, need help from Dan to run in the lab.


BN:

  • Made updates to detector website, in work.
  • working with PH on porting PyRoot to Python.


KN

  • UED guys are set with new cables
  • ePix UED temp 63C
  • Sunday MFX finishes, 2M comes off, box delivered to MFX today.
  • XPP having trouble with pgp server hat runs 2M.
  • CXI fiber 450uW becomes 50-60uW, defect in port feedthrough sometime limits to 2uW(?), replacement flanges on order (8-9 weeks).


CH

  • 2m.0 last Friday looked good, charge-punch has recovered.
  • Measurements on sm 10k, pedestal application inconsistent in online ami, raw data is fine.
  • Still see dashed lines in pedestal config.


KP

  • RMA for MPODs
  • Lab cleaning tonight.
