Notes from biweekly meetings

Continue to fine tune operating point of NaI detector and upload plateaus/signal:noise plots

NaI attenuation measurements (with BorAl and try different types of poly (unborated, lavender, green))

Speak to Roy Dunker who has agreed to let us use a second HPGe detector for back-to-back measurements in later phase of feasibility studies at ISU (X)

How much lead to shield 200KeV gamma? How much poly to thermalize 2MeV neutrons? (DD generator shielding)
