Micromegas projects and future tests Phone meeting August 26th, 2009
Tests with Gasbox • Starting September 15th, readout 1 module with the Rostock electronics (fast Micromegas signals, high gain) • From October 21 onwards, RD51 beam test (gas box in the Goliath magnet in CERN north area, High energy m/p)
Tentative setup Goliath (2 Saclay groups) TS ? TS ? Bonn CERN R-MM TPC beam
New panels in progress • 2 new panels under construction: 1 Saclay routing, 1 CERN routing, both with a new resistive coating (lower resistivity) • Might be ready for the October RD51 beam test, or might be tested later on at DESY. • A new TimePix-InGrid panel is under construction. Tentatively ready by November?
7 modules • Good progress on PCB FECs FEM backend All in parallel, in a coordinated way Need to start on 7-module software
