News:

Proximity sensor mandatory @ CERN. EU probably will impose travel restrictions from USA. Anushree will start a contract w/ Muone/CMS. We have to comment the EXO-19-014 paper by Saturday. Send comments to Martino & Andrea.

Framework & production

No news.

Analysis

B physics

Will give a presentation on Sept 8th at the PAG about the new iteration. Martino is part of the B-physics pubcom.

Heavy composite neutrinos

ARC review going on. Pat answering them. SS signal request might was not optimal wrt leaving the charge blind in the past. Greg suggested to review the approach and re-introduce the SS request because it helps in the low mass region where there is more background. EXO-20-011.

VBS

Not much to report. New MC signals. Probably the analysis will move to ultra-legacy.

WH_SS

SY defended his thesis in July. Good presentation. Analysis was included in a broader analysis (HV production). HIG-19-017 is a PAS-only publication. the goal is to extend the paper also to hadronic channels.

H/Z->JPsi gamma

No news.

Higgs

No news.

Mu regression

No news.

Detector

Trigger

MarcoZ, Jacopo and Alberto are at CERN to present (in presence) the update on the DT primitives.

Timing Layer

Simone Mancin (Eng prof in Vicenza, expert in heat exchange) has a new student who will work on the cooling. Mia studied the TEC efficiency at low T.

DT

Ageing studies: TB tests executed. Irradiation started at GIF++. As a measure of the irradiation the current of L2 and L4 are constantly monitored. Planned a high flux test to check whether the carbon peak is related to the flux. https://indico.cern.ch/event/1067949/contributions/4490439/attachments/2301590/3915113/WorkShopLongevityDT.pdf
