WHAT HAS BEEN DONE SINCE JANUARY
Theoretical studies and simulation Intense study of optical materials to optimize the Cherenkov light collections by Florence and Milan See Talk by E. Vannuccini Big simulation work: Electromagnetic energy resolution Hadronic energy measurement optimization Charge Measuring device Dose estimation (not yet finalized) See Talks by Bongi/Bottai and Maestro
Very intense laboratory activities Test in Naples on the optical properties of CsI(Tl) See talk by G. Carotenuto Measurements in Florence for: Characterization of the Casis chip Light collection efficiency on small and large photodiodes Optical cross talk See talk by O. Starodubtsev Measurements in Trieste on the new CASIS chip Slides prepared by V. Bonvicini
Mechanical studies Pisa/Siena group is studying the mechanics See P.S. Marrocchesi presentation
Alternative mechanical support Alternative mechanical support is being studied by russian Gamma-400 colleagues (last Tuesday’s meeting in Moscow!) I will shortly present after P.S. Marrocchesi talk
Test beams Intense analysis work on the 2013 SPS test beam analysis See Talk by G. Bigongiari Organization of future test beams Setup of the Messina Linac line Test beam in Frascati in July 2014 SPS test beam in 2015 See Talk by S. Albergo
