Five detectors to be underway in FY10 Drift Chamber has one factory “in production” and is setting up the two off-site ones, planned to start early/mid FY11 PreShower Calorimeter and High Threshold Cerenkov Counter are in production on parts and sub-assemblies. PCAL construction into sectors starts FY11; HTCC mounts mirror assemblies into main box in late FY12 Forward TOF is in procurement phase for PMTs, bases and scintillator; assembly is planned FY11-FY13 Silicon Vertex Tracker has bids back on first batch of sensors, preamp chips being test-probed prior to ‘dicing’ from production wafer, and flex interconnect cable designed. Stave construction planned to start middle of FY2011. The first ramp-up is underway. There is a second stage of ramp-up in FY12, notably for the drift chambers. Factories are planned to accommodate added workers/throughput. Hall B Detector Progress PCAL scintillator U-layer Drift Chamber stringing HTCC Region 3 mirror molds
