Commissioning at P5 Commissioning at P5 RE1/1 at P5 Run coordination & Upgrade Manpower needed Not covered Covered

10. Critical task (March 2011) We still have few important tasks not covered: – Online Database (Warsaw is looking for a student) – Detector Control System (none) – Power system (temporary solution) – Offline Database (Bari group) – WMB (none from July 2011) 29/03/11RPC IB meeting - Pigi Paolucci10

11. Critical tasks (Today) 2 tasks have been now covered: – Online Database (Warsaw is looking for a student) – Detector Control System – Electronic Coordinator (F. Loddo) Power system (Hassan and Anton) – Offline Database (Korea Univ & Bari group) Time needed to have experts – WMB (covered until October 2011) Mihee will work with Umberto on noise in WMB 29/03/11RPC IB meeting - Pigi Paolucci11

12. Next issues (March 2011 and now)  WBM deployment at CAF/P5 !!! manpower needed  Working at CAF/P5 very well OK  Historical plots and noise have to be included  DQM efficiencies and DB  Under test  Noise and DB  Geometry and noise per roll ready  Noise per strip asap  CMS center instructions for shiftersOK  Upgrade schedule and milestones – under definition  Upgrade money matrix- still under discussion in CMS 29/03/11RPC IB meeting - Pigi Paolucci12 PVT

15. News about RPC organization 28/06/114th RPC General Meeting - Pigi Paolucci15 RPC MB, coordinators and experts have access to a shared google documents used to prepare the weekly report to the XEB meeting: Very good way to share info ! Please ask to have access June 14th: TC: Everything was perfectly stable before the gas kill on 31th May. Then after a power-cut in SG5 and a gas kill we had 5 trips in the barrel and 1 in the endcap. All have been recovered. One chamber temporarily in SG mode till next access. Trigger: Muon Trigger rate variations observed (~9%) in last weeks, the most probable reason is variation of the RPC chamber efficiency (by 2-3%) with the pressure variation (impacting the trigger efficiency in the endcaps by 3- 4%, and thus the rate). Still not clear is the variation of the cluster size could impact the probability of promoting the low pt muons to high pt (impacting the rate on given threshold). Variation is not present with low PT cut (Mu0 and Mu7) and increase from Mu16 to Mu20 RC: stable since the HV scan - no problem with the new set of WP and efficiency very stable in time (2-3% of variation due to the pressure) P/T correction in PVSS has been discussed and defined and will be tested during the next TS DPG:DQM: experts are investigating in the offline DQM to speed-up it. Right now we are using 4MB and we already deleted 4.000 histograms. Work is on going. MC: Comparison of number of RPC hits in Muon Reco of 2011 data with summer2011 MC, show nice agreement in barrel and endcap. Some small discrepancy in overlap region under study Upgrade: MB:

16. News about RPC organization 28/06/114th RPC General Meeting - Pigi Paolucci16 Shared google calendar with meetings and vacation (Pigi and Gabriella) – please ask to be included in the list Minutes provided by all the coordinators – thanks a lot XEB and XEC minutes circulates in real time MB and FB minutes and news in a week All info sent to Group Leader (we ask to circulate)

17. Action Items 28/06/114th RPC General Meeting - Pigi Paolucci17 1.HV setting with P/T correction – approved by CMS but in a human version 2.Improve history plots monitoring (current, noise, efficiency) using WBM and database 3.Include DQM trigger check in CAF duties 4.Spare components procurement 5.Long 2012shut-down plan 6.Bakelite and gap production 7.Link and Control board prototype tests at 904 (Oct- Dec)

18. ESP 2011 ESP 2011 have been approved by RPC and CMS Most of the RPC pledges have been approved after having consulted TC/RC/DPG/Upgrade – Some DPG task to be checked: PVT6 needed13.6 pledge Analysis3656 Up soft40 Gap prod816 End of the year RPC MB will fill the work done with the help of the coordinators Few tasks without any results. To be double checked 29/03/11RPC IB meeting - Pigi Paolucci18
