Thanks
to the efforts made by the CMS/IHEP group in April, noticeable progress
has been made in the development of the detector and the adjustment of
the cosmic ray on-line measurement system.
Despite
the shortage of manpower, the CMS/IHEP group initiated the installation
of the front-end electronic parts of the cathode strip drift chamber and
the cable, and the adjustment of the cosmic ray on-line data acquisition
system. With the help of Mr. Victor Barashiko from University of
Florida, the VME on-line software was successfully adjusted. It took
only more than 3 weeks to have tested 5 ME1/2 cathode strip drift
chambers and removed the front-end electronic parts with problem. More
than 20 tested results have met the requirement of the CMS/EMU system.
In addition, 8 cathode strip drift chambers were assembled in April, a
record high in the year. |
