Follow-up meeting on TEQ experiment

TEQ experimentalists have met on November 23, 2020 to update on developments of setting up the low-noise electronics, update on particle loading experiments at UCL & AU, and evidence for decision on details for realization of the ultimate experiment at Southampton. This is the follow up meeting after June 2020 on experiments.

 

Schedule:

14:30               Update on deliverable 1.5 preparation (M. Paternostro)

14:40               Update on trapping experiments (P. Barker and team), use of electronics (C. Curceanu and team) and AU-based DAQ system (M. Drewsen), optical trapping with M2 laser

15:00               Update on test with low noise electronics at AU (M. Drewsen)

15:20               Discussion on next steps with electronics and input for INFN, next version of electronics.

15:40               Particle loading and suggestions for experiment at Soton (magnetic or Paul trap, based on experience of all partners)

16:00               Summary and plans for next steps. 

 

Location:  online via Webex.
