** Ye's slides on comparison of preCDR vs. latest simulation. Note that the preCDR plot (on 2D plane energy vs. R, reproduced by Ye) is for e.g. "pi- from pi-" while the latest simulation is "everything from pi-". Even though the plots are for different things, it seems to contradict the table that the latest simulation gives much higher radiation background.

** Zhiwen will dig into how Jin extracted radiation dose from the particle rate plots.
 +
** We discussed the labor cost of large-angle ECal and SPD assembly and testing. Here is Richard's estimate, consistent with 2023 estimate of 744 PW scaled by area of 440/1800.

* Weekly ECal May 1, 2025
 +
** Ye worked out a way to extract the z-dependence of Edep in the Preshower and Shower. Counting the whole preshower as a layer, the radiation is pretty high. On the other hand, the radiation in the Shower layers does not look much worse than preCDR, though the exact z-dependence is different. See her presentation: [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/6/6d/PVDIS_simulation_configuration_comparison_04302025.pdf PVDIS_simulation_configuration_comparison_04302025.pdf]. Note that the radiation dose of the preshower needs to be integrated over the preshower's Z (slides 2 left, 8, and 9 left).
 +
** Jianping suggested re-visting low-energy pion comparison of bggen vs. wiser, i.e. DVCS and MARATHON data analyzed by Ye Tian (IMP) and Zhihong. -- followup on 5/8: Ye dig out the old slide but that study stopped at 2GeV for the pion momentum (minimum).
 +
** Mike and Richard talked to Carl about benchtesting the Shower PMTs, to be followed by MAPMT and MCP-PMT tests.
 +
** Darren gave a [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/8/87/SoLID_ECal_-_ML_PID_-_01_May.pdf presentation SoLID ECal ML PID] on the latest status (from Nov. 2024) of AI/ML PID study. Recap:
 +
*** the study was done using simulation without background, then applied to data
 +
*** e vs. pi0: ML output could reject pi0's (since probability of pi0 is always < 0.5)
 +
*** applying ML to data, we see pi+, pi- and e ID in the output
 +
*** ML-ID'ed e- and pi+ or pi- preshower, ShSum from data agree with simulation very well
 +
*** ECal resolution: had to add by hand about 35% for PSH, 10% for SH
 +
*** one result is ML PID charged pion rejection vs. e- efficiency -- something comparable to classical PID
 +
*** the only thing missing was background simulation!

* [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/8/80/SoLID_PID_2_20_2025.pdf Mike's PID update]. Some discussions:
 +
** JP: what are the uncertainties in the preshower and Shower calibration? -> Ye and Mike need to find the uncertainty. Ben's plot may be more precise
 +
** Ye: there is also a 65uA (4409) run
 +
** JP: there should also be a Preshower cut
 +
 +
* Question arose how the preshower radiation dose is 3 times higher now (SOLID PVDIS) vs. preCDR value...!
 +
** JP: there was a study of Fluka va. GEANT by Lorenzo Zana before the Science Review, need to dig this out
 +
** We need to vet the statements of *3 and *5 estimate (how much SoLID PVDIS is higher than the beam test in terms of radiation dose in the ECal modules, currently in the report)
 +
 +
* Comments on the report draft:
 +
** FADC timing should not be in the Shower section

** Ben started analyzing the THU base. Here is his [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/1/10/SoLID_ECAL_PMT_THUDividers.ods Calculation on all three PMT bases]
 +
** Zhihong shared pictures of the super-module being assembled at THU: [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/d/d9/THU_supermodule_20241031_image0.jpg pic0], [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/f/fe/THU_supermodule_20241031_image1.jpg pic1], [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/images/6/62/THU_supermodule_20241031_image2.jpg pic2];  He will also send a new PMT base design diagram (for the super module) so we can study its possible gain shift in advance
 +
** Zhihong will look if there are old PMTs with the same base as the 2023 Hall C beamtest, and will do a bench test to study the gain shift if any such PMT/base is found.
 +
** Xiaochao shared a rough draft of the beam test report. Still need to wrap up some calculation, and need someone to double check all numbers.

    • Ye's slides on comparison of preCDR vs. latest simulation. Note that the preCDR plot (on 2D plane energy vs. R, reproduced by Ye) is for e.g. "pi- from pi-" while the latest simulation is "everything from pi-".
