Plan for 2009 activity

S. Uozumi and AllDec-14 2009 ScECAL meeting @ KEK

Beam Test

• DESY BT analysis (Satoru)• KEK BT analysis (Nishiyama)• FNAL BT analysis– Nishiyama, Sakuma, Adil

• FNAL BT data taking– everyone

MPPC related• Improve performance with Hamamatsu– Dynamic range (20um pitch or smaller)– Various prioerties– 1.3^2mm2 or rectangular– package

• Long-term stability (Takahashi)• Response curve study• Radiation tolerance– Estimation of radiation dose to MPPC at ILC– Radiation test

• Magnetic tolerance• Robustness (broken MPPC)

Scintillator• Establish scintillator production with KNU– Mechanical stability– Injection mould ?– Megastrip structure– 5 mm wide strip

• Bench test– Reflector, method etc.

• Optical simulation• Estimate optimal light yield

Simulation

• Strip clustering (Kotera)• MIP calibration (Yanagida, Shinshu)
