Updates on Phase I from technical meeting

Cynthia — Duke

• Created a new branch for documentation and example cleanup.
• Continuing work to make the optimization pipelines ready for use.

Derek — JLab

• Will test the BIC code this week.
• Next step is to combine the sub-detector workflows into a working pipeline.

Phase II

Code Assist

• Testing with Gemma is underway.
• Gemma has been somewhat less effective than the Qwen models so far.
• Qwen remains a suitable option for users running models locally.
• The team is looking into other models that meet national lab requirements.

Monitoring / Control

- Amit will provide an update at the next technical meeting.

Detector Optimization

CUA

• Calorimetry calibration: Updates requested from Baptiste and Tanja.

Duke / W&M / Other Institutions

• kLM Design: Phase I activity.
• RICH Alignment: Phase II activity; the alignment work is already in production at CLAS12.
  • Connor may still be contributing.
  • Anselm is considering ways to speed up the work.
  • Connor needs to write up the completed work.
  • The team discussed whether SLURM/PanDA could help speed up the process.
  • Cynthia believes Connor has been using SLURM.
• AerFib: Ongoing activity.
• Software Stack Extension: FEM integration and ensuring consistency between FEM and Geant detector designs.
