Minutes

Attendees: Silvia, Kimberly, Marco, Chao, Hang and Jodi

Excused: Dongming

We had extensive discussions based on Kimberly's slides as to what should be included in the section of the paper dealing with Geant4 propagation. It was decided in the end to have three unrealistic mock-up detectors simulated. The target materials would be 50kg Ge, 1 m diameter by 1 m tall Xe and Ar. We included argon as one of the targets because it is light and the effects of the different spectra would likely be most noticeable in a light target.

Silvia had a list of good questions that should be addressed. Due to the shortness of time, she will send around an email to start discussion
