Speaker: Xiaoyan Huang

1.TMS studies: split the studies into several groups to be reviewed with the ND reco/sim group. The two review dates are December 11th and January 8th.

Expect the studies being done and documentation written out in detail.

Important points:  how the studies were done, what are the results and interpretations. Qualities of the plots and suitable captions are important.

Going through the readiness of several studies: Kiyoung’s, Xiaoyan’s, Asa’s studies are ready to be reviewed in December. Kates's study on ND-LAR–TMS matching and Liam’s and Jeffrey’s study on the energy/momentum resolution will be reviewed in January.

2. Asa’s presentation: See more details in the slide.

Implementing a new geometry of TMS. Current geometry is from the CDR era. 

Changes made: steel thickness, gaps between steel, scintillator bar dimensions.

Asa implemented the changes and ran the code, it passed all checks.

Next steps: run a tiny production to test the new geometry. With the PDR coming up, it's good to do it as soon as possible.
