  1. Comments from Physics Division Rolf Ent Associate Director for Experimental Nuclear Physics SOLID collaboration meeting, February 03, 2012 • CLEO Magnet Update • Electronics Update • 2nd SOLID Brainstorming Session with Physics Division Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

  2. CLEO Magnet: Contact between Cornell and JLab Engineering Division established • DOE/NP sensitive about any additional scope/MIE in view of uncertain budget outlook • CLEO magnet appears good match to SOLID needs per 2nd SOLID brainstorming session with Physics Division • Due diligence w.r.t. cryogenic system of magnet needed •  engaged engineering division •  brought into contact with relevant Cornell staff • (lab tech lead, activity coordinator, cryo expert) • Productive phone meeting between Cornell representatives and JLab engineering & cryogenics staff (Thursday Jan. 12) • Magnet seems to be well taken care of, also in decommissioning • Cornell will look at sending us copies of drawings of the magnet, cryogenics and controls, and hunt for documentation on procurement specs and shipping tools. • Jim Alexander: JLab are first and most serious customer

  3. Production Board Quantities – per C. Cuevas 50 50  Hall A DAQ upgrade (16 of which used for SBS)

  4. Production Board Notes – per Chris CuevasOther 12GeV Proposed Detectors • ** CLAS12 ‘baseline’ FADC250 board count is 239 • Central Neutron Detector is 288 channels or 18 boards • Forward Tagger (PbWO4) calorimeter is 424 channels or 28 boards • Total on previous page is 310 boards • So, 25 boards are spare • *Hall D ‘baseline’ FADC250 board count is 282 • - BCAL readout Change Request adds one layer or 32 boards • - Total on previous page is 350 • - So, 36 boards are spare • +Hall C ‘baseline’ FADC250 board count for SHMS is 16 • - HMS is 13 boards, plus 2 spares  ordered 15 spares • - User request of ~40 boards through NSF/MRI for (PbWO4) p0 spectrometer • Note: In FY12 thirty-five (35) Pre-Production units were purchased and will most likely • not be used for the final hall installations. These units are functionally equal to the • production units, but need a few very minor circuit corrections.

  5. Electronics Summary • Spare FADC250 modules need to be used/shared intelligently • Pre-production modules can be used (35) • Hall D spares + Hall B Spares + Halls A, C + Physics + pre-production • = 162 (+46 + 40?) boards • We hope to invest some capital funds in FY12  FY13 for the relevant components of fast pipelined electronics that may become obsolete, and establish a pool of components for all Halls to share • Electronics Group has already planned for infrastructure needed for • spares storage and repair/testing. Will work closely with DAQ and Hall • Groups to maintain spare modules. • Need to plan for intelligent module/spare sharing

  6. Some thoughts • Strategy of fulfilling (most of) not-dedicated readout electronics needs for SOLID does not seem impossible by • 1) sharing spares/electronics amongst Halls • 2) pre-buying needed components • Communication with Cornell on cryogenic needs and planning for CLEO magnet has started • 2nd SOLID Brainstorming session added 3rd homework • Sharing possible between Hall A cryo target, and foreseen Moller and SOLID targets? • Director’s review timing likely when more info on magnet has arrived Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility
