WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS FOR WEEK ENDING 30 April 1999:
STANFORD HIGHLIGHT
The first of two forward TRE boxes has successfully passed thermal vacuum
testing. The measured differential gain of the TRE for the two detector
signal channels is 15 times better than the specification. The measured
gain stability is better than +/- 12 ppm/K. The second forward TRE box
will undergo thermal vacuum testing in the near future.
