10 minBeamtime support update

30 minPriorities ReviewAll
  • 2021-2 events:
    • Projects new starts:
      • ePixM project plan submitted, baselined in P6.  Mech design review held Jan 24 (actions circulated). Received sensor wafers from L-Foundry, dicing.
      • SparkPix-S Phase II (full-size ASIC for sparsification engine), on-track
      • ePixHR V:  beamline test completed, data analysis slow.
      • 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.
      • ePix100 integration into LCLS-II DAQ, software and firmware work underway.  cpo has etch9.
    • Production:
      • spare ePix10k modules (0.5 & 1mm) Module order in work, new sensor order delayed.  First batch of no-ghost received, now packaging and wirebonding.
      • Approved 3d copy of ePix10k2m: underway, March delivery (slipped due to module delay, PCB issues)
      • Approved spare quads for MEC: delivered, in test.
      • 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:  Second unit in test.  Vibe seems moderately worse, but OK.  Working on test report, and review with NEH2.2.
    • HiZ collaboration tests: Ge and CZT beamtime completed, analysis in work (plan?).  Lab tests ongoing.
    • Outreach for R&D support (SparkPix-ED, SparkPix Delta).
    • SBIR effort for UXI not funded.


  • Group priorities review:
    • Testing
      • Develop workable version of 'standard' cal script, test on 10k small, Bhavna:  Possible to demonstrate by week of Feb 14?
      • Preparation for IH UXI, Philip, possible to get contract set and engineering work set by week of Feb 14?
      • Air-scatter CompEnOn study to refine timing...Philip/Bhavna, possible to complete analysis by week of 2/14?.
      • Acceptance test new quads Bhavna, possible to complete basic cal (pedestals, charge-injection) floe by week of 2/14?
      • Test second RIXS-CCD:  Kaz/Chris:  possible to take/analyse 2d data set incl vibe by week of 2/14?
    • Analysis
      • Gather new data to support calibration constant development (air-0scatter, FoLo, ??)
    • Documentation
      • Complete on-line travellers for Mp detectors

    • Development
      • Hi-Z test data analysis (Conny, is there a reasonable target for week of 2/14?
      • Testing ePixHR in our lab:  Conny, is it possible/worthwhile/important enough to try to get it running in our lab by week of 2/14??
    • Lab 'commissioning'
      • DAQ
        • Get water and power completed in mech chase (reasonable milestone by 2/14?)
      • Marietta interlocks for Kimball. Need to check with Jenna
      • Marietta fixturing for calibration of epix, JF smalls
      • Vac chamber for in-lab tests?  Compatible with XPP alcove?  Chris/az/Philip/Cony confer and select config by 2/14??


Actions:


30 minStatus

No update on dept head recruiting

Opportunity to focus on lagging priorities:  Marietta/Kimball, water/power, RIXS-CCD data analysis/reporting, beamtime data analysis, vac test chamber?

Status on water/power??

Topics for Cal team meeting?  Bojan to join going forward.



KN:

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

PH:

  • Getting ready for UXI test...no GaAs available unfortunately

#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.
