2021-10-19 Detector Planning Meeting notes

• Rayonix kapton filter/shield found and installed yesterday(!)

• 2021 events:
  • Projects new starts:
    • ePixM project plan submitted, baselined in P6.
    • SparkPix-S Phase II (full-size ASIC for sparsification engine), on-track
    • ePixHR V:  beamline test completed.
    • TXI Detectors (2Mp and 140kp based on ePixHR @5kHz) Wafer purchase order placed, delay to delivery of about 3 months, other things likely to slip as well.
    • ePixUHR (130nm TSV structure to reach 100kHz), CDR completed, PEC approved start, project underway.
  • Production:
    • spare modules (0.5 & 1mm) Module order in work, new sensor order delayed.  First batch of no-ghost not yet received, now packaging and wirebonding.
    • Approved 3d copy of ePix10k2m: underway, November delivery (may slip due to module delay)
    • Approved spare quads for MEC:  underway, possible delivery this week(?).
    • Proposed in-air 2m/1mm project plan submitted to OIP.
    • Proposed UED detector upgrade, planning in work.
    • Proposed ePix10k4m (concept)
  • RIXS-CCD/cooler test and verification:  Acceptance tests show vibe spec met (long settling time).  Working on test report, and review with NEH2.2.
  • HiZ collaboration tests: Ge and CZT modules have been tested in lab, LCLS beam times secured, Boo re-working bracket fab.
  • Outreach for R&D support (SparkPix-ED, SparkPix Delta).
  • SBIR effort for UXI not funded.

• Group priorities review:
  • Testing
    • Run 'standard' cal on two 10k smalls with new firmware, log tracker.
    • CompEnOn study during CXI checkout time?  111, 1a vs 19?
    • Any ePix100 detectors in ASC?  Can we figure out what's wrong with ePix100/7?
  • 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
    
    
  • Lab 'commissioning'
    • DAQ
      
      • Storage nodes  configured, put in use?
      • LCLS I/II compatibility?
    • Chase racks anchored....cables, water status?
    • Vac chamber for in-lab tests?  Compatible with XPP alcove?

Actions:

LDAC preps dominate.  Website released, dry runs complete...pretty good shape.  Comfortable with cal talk??

Goals.

Fit second cooler...noise discrepancy??

Now that IH over, status on water/power??  Omar asked.

Cal team meeting needs reschedule.

BA1.0 funding set but haven't yet seen it.  Turbo order approved.

KN:

• No timing in ASC...probably due to power issues in NEH.
• Rayonix shipped.
• Hunting for ePix small vac hardware....some parts missing.

PH:

• HR beamtime lessons learned on Friday
• HR test overall quite successful
• Working on input for LDAC talks
• UXI IH put in for Run20....could let us offer UXI for user experiments??

#CH:

• Christmas tree setup for Ge
• Flex cable may be too short....will check today.
• HR camera back to TID.
• Boards being modified for HV CZT
• NYC 10/14-20.

#RA:

• Need mtg for acceptance test planning (Friday)

BN:

• Looking at FoLo data, still tryng to parse/understand
• Went through fluorescence process.
• Min/max stitching.
• Run cal on new ePix firmware.
• Grafana setup to alert Slack channel.
• Made updates to detector website, in work.
• Working with PH on porting PyRoot to Python.

CK:

• Setting up vac components for RIXS-CCD.
• Trying to get cables complete for CSPD/CXI
• Trying to move water/power effort in chase.

Coordinate/update lab schedule.
