Summary
  • Time resolution about 60ps
  • It does not depend on position nor B-field
  • Fine mesh 2inch PMT (R5924) x25 ordered
  • 1.5x8x100(cm3) and 10cm light guide x8 slats
  • Readout electronics (8ch x 3) from BBC

Open questions
  • Photon conversion rejector option? (read-out)
  • Removable T0 only for hadron PID run?

16
Schedule
fine mesh 2inch PMT (R5924) x25 ordered PMT
delivery scintillator and light guide
order mechanical structure design and
order shipping all the materials to BNL assembly
installation after heavy ion run one week access
