SHMS Detector Commissioning and Installation Updates
Status updates on the commissioning and installation progress of the SHMS detector system, including the noble gas Cerenkov mount optics, mirrors, drift chambers, and various hodoscopes. Details on the system status, high voltage signal cables, DAQ, gas computing, and schedules for detector installation planning. Also, insights into upcoming activities like commissioning with beam week, shifts in August 2016, and the beginning of a new phase. Visual aids provided for better understanding.

SHMS Detector Commissioning and Installation Howard Fenker Hall-C Users Meeting -- 15-Jan-2015
Status of Detectors for SHMS Noble-Gas Cerenkov Mount Optics in Box at Jlab ESB during UVa Spring Break. Mirrors are at CERN being aluminized Drift Chambers Tested. See talk later today. Move to JLab ESB in Feb. for Electronics & Cosmics Hodoscopes At NCA&T and JMU and JLab. Frames at W&M All cosmic tested and Ready to install. Heavy-Gas Cerenkov At JLab ESB. Tested. Ready to install. Aerogel Cerenkov See talks later today Pre-shower and Shower Counters Installed and Tested! See talk later today. Active-Sieve GEM Tested. Mounting hardware ready. Installation in Summer 2016.
System Status High Voltage Signal Cables DAQ Gas Computing Sieves & Collimators Beamline Vacuum System Scattering Chamber
SHMS Schedule DRAFT NOT OFFICIAL 12GEV DATELINE 1/12/15
Detector Installation Planning DETECTOR BENCH TEST INSTALL COSMIC CONNECT Shower Feb 2015 Preshower Feb 2015 S2X & Q2Y Aerogel Spring & Summer 2015 Heavy Gas S1X & S1Y (Wait for Dipole Installation and Final Assembly Tests Finish by 9-May-2016) Drift Chambers May 2016 Summer 2015 May 2016 Noble Gas April 2015 June 2016 June 2016
Commissioning-With-Beam Week s Activities CONCEPTUAL PLAN ONLY Establish beam into the Hall Set Magnets to Nominal Currents / Fields Rough timing of hodoscopes, etc. Establish basic coincidence trigger Reconstruct low-resolution tracks in Drift Ch. Obtain calibration data for PID systems Observe low-res. elastic peak Exercise DAQ rate
Commissioning-Week Shifts ~August 2016 One week 21 Shifts Will Need a Plan Will Need a Run Coordinator Need Staff: Hardware AND Software Experts JLab Staff (Techs, Engineers, Scientists) Users
The End but the Beginning is in sight!
