DS-Mat regular meeting

Europe/Rome

BB, GZ, CJ, IK, MG, OA, RS, SC, TM, VP, Andrea I., SamuelKim, KP

 

- Assay status:

TM: Not many news.

GZ: SS samples assayed for cleaning evaluation. Will be sent to Legnaro

OA: still restrictions on access, so this won’t happen soon.

SC: screening of Gd running, will be closed this week.

IK: Nothing being measured and everything reported. Siltem connectors being waited. Noted that the inductors from Krakow are not reported as such in the DB. Mentions that BNL is not going to take care of the Steering module anymore. It would be nice to close the effort on the Connectors at least. VP will try to put some time into this this week.

CJ: SNOLAB is under minimum maintenance. There will be an ICPMS available through the McDonald institute sometime soon.

 

- Budget:

MG shared a study of the Th chain on 27Al comparing different versions of NeuCBOT, SaG4n and articles published using them. Meeting on Friday to be arranged.

 

- Cosmogenics:

SC updates on the calculation of cosmogenics after feedback from Urania people. There’s an outline planned for a publication, probably for Astroparticle Physics. RS says it would be good to already notify the editorial committee.

 

 

Action items:

- Discussion on publication of Po reduction procedures in SS and Cu
