Preparation for CERN test beam

Preparation for CERN test beam
H6 test beam area in Prevessin
2
Starting a To Do List

• Get all possible documentation info about CERN
  TB
• ? from the Web H6 manual, LCWS talk of M.
  Hauschild,
• ? combined visit to CERN (Apr. 24) with a
  detailed list of questions
• Combined plan of installation and data taking
• ? agree on combined physics program (next
  meeting)
• Divide tasks / avoid multiplication
• ? clear definition of responsibilities
  (following the example of Nigel) and good
  exchange of results
• Shift schedule (on site / off site (analysis) /
  expert list)
• Ease the life of people
• ? accommodation, registration _at_ CERN, VISA,

3
Daily meeting with machine and with the shift crew
4
Integration of CERN equipment in our DAQ
understanding shift instruction
5
Prepare bureaucracy in advance
Start of new shifts!

Availability of people
This test beam is the goal of the last 3 years of
work we should give THE BEST!!!

General strategy

• Common way to look at the data (Marius)
• online / semi-online display
• feedback from fast-offline analysis
• Common place where to store info (Sven)
• online logbook
• online documentation (beam usage, manuals, crew
  instructions)
• online updated plots ( ev. collected, detector
  efficiency)
• ? Common software for calibration and analysis
• collected in one place (?) easy to access
• same format (MARLIN)
• requires common coordination (maybe analysis
  coordinator ?)
• ? documentation, documentation, documentation

The pre-preparation

• Getting ready for CERN starts already _at_ DESY
• The DESY test beam Apr.-Jun. can be the test
  bench for
• combined readout (DAQ)
• combined online monitoring
• first level reconstruction software
• integration of ECAL HCAL software
• train shift crews for operating the two detectors
  !!!
• Lets exploit this chance at best
