DS-Mat regular meeting

Europe/Rome

Materials WG 7/1/20

RS, VP, CJ, GK, KP, MW, MaxGr, OA, PA, PM, SC, TM, 12152043180, IK, AR.

 

VP: No news from FEP alternatives.

 

RS: Conversations and progress for solutions of the cryostat

PA: Some simulations going on, a report should be ready be next week.

 

RS: Rad. Budg. Quite OK. Cryostat, FEP, Gd.

VP: points out that the 0.1 nAC is not realistic for 200 ty with current solutions.

 

Cosmogenics:

RS: we are in position to start writing a paper on this.

SC: outline clear. Start writing some sections to be circulated in the very near future.

 

Cross calibrations:

The liquid sources have been circulated.

Powdered ocean sediment being counted at SNOLAB. Then will be sent around.

 

Surface:

RS: the (a,n) surface contamination effect should be finalised

 

AOB:

using Si resistors is a possibility, but x10 in terms of cost.

Connectors (I lost connection and couldn’t hear what was it about)

 

Action items:

 

VP: writing an internal note on Gd rare earths.

RS: Internal note on current status of assays and budget.

SC: start the draft on cosmogenics

VP: Final numbers on (a,n) from surface contamination.

VP: Start a mail loop reagarding the status of cables for Milano group, Francesco Ragusa.
