  • Tuesday 13 January
    • 1
      Pre-meeting - IT only
      Speakers: Giovanni Mazzitelli (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare), Luigi Benussi (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
    • Meeting with LNF Director - in person
    • meeting NMV: Status
      • 2
        Top vs lateral/bottom instrumentation - scope division

        Is Italy fully in charge of top, independent of the technical implementation (full WC, combined WC+panels, etc...)? will top have an independent DAQ?

        Speaker: Matteo Biassoni (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
      • 3
        External constraints for US deployment - costs and timeline
        Speaker: Karsten Heeger (Yale University)
        CUPID_MV2026_planning.pdf
      • 4
        Summary of results obtained in the various tests
        Speakers: Donatella Tozzi (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare), Giovanni Mazzitelli (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare), Luigi Benussi (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
    • 12:30
      lunch
    • meeting NMV: Technical solutions
      • 5
        Simulations

        Current status: - geometry detail, understanding of output, what's missing (inputs for simulations and simulations to take decisions)

        Speakers: Karsten Heeger (Yale University), Penny L. Slocum (Yale University)

        Scintillating panels

        Is the current design for the single module the best/good enough? Which thickness? Do we need more measurements or can we freeze the design?

      • 7
        SiPMs - devices

        Can we freeze the choice/start the procurement?

        Readout and DAQ - CUPID.pdf
        Readout and DAQ - CUPID.pptx
      • 8
        SiPMs - optical and mechanical coupling

        Who is in charge of improving the mechanical coupling? Can the mechanical coupling be responsible for inefficiency of single tiles?

      • 15:30
        Coffee break
      • 9
        Readout and DAQ

        Is the current choice the best? Is it scalable? Do we need to implement a different solution and do we have time to find one? Do we need to interact with CAEN to adapt to our needs (especially cabling/shielding)?

      • 10
        Discussion
      • 11
        Mechanical Design
        Speaker: James Wilhelmi (Yale)

  • Wednesday 14 January
    • meeting NMV: Planning and documentation
      • 12
        Realistic timeline

        Procurement, QC, installation compatible with overall schedule. Focus on lateral and bottom (top only after CUPID deployment).
        All material procured in single batch? Multiple batches? Need inputs to match QC and detector construction in the schedule

        Speaker: Matteo Biassoni (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)
      • 13
        QC procedures and manpower

        What do we need to quality check? Do we need to characterize single tiles/panels? Single SiPMs? Assembled panels?
        Where: - Yale? LNF? LNGS? - before/after assembly/shipment?
        Who: - Yale? Yale + LNF? Technical staff?

      • 14
        Installation - procedures and manpower

        Who is in charge of installation? Yale technical staff? Need support from Italy?

      • 15
        Documentation/Review

        What do we need? Timeline?
        Design and simulation report (start overleaf) - complete system
        Technical design review of lateral and bottom shield - before starting procurement? Fix date?
