  1. Preliminary Geometry of Cerenkov Detector for New BigBiteSpetrometer Bo Zhao College of William and Mary Hall A weekly meeting, March 22, 2011 1

  2. Specification of Cerenkov BigBite is at 30 degs for 12 GeV A1n, the commissioning experiment for Hall A at 6.6 and 8.8 GeV. Need good PID in noisy environment. New design concept Large array of 0.75’’ diameter PMTs Low threshold, high single rate Find timing clusters of ~20 PMTs using TDC spectrum Timing cut ~ 10 ns Expect to handle 2MHz high background rate. 2
