==Trip to JLab==

I traveled to Jefferson Lab in Newport News, Virginia from January 4th to January 15th during my 2014 winter break. I recorded a [https://docs.google.com/document/d/150Arri-9OrtY8MvuYq3-ornS6aNieYamTW23UPPa9nM '''day to day log'''] (search "JLab trip"). I have also created a [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Atw6FQAT9tl0dEZjT1dMX1JRS3VoWWU3UmJVU1liVXc&usp=drive_web#gid=0 '''travel expenses spreadsheet'''] and an [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Atw6FQAT9tl0dEZfdVdBZVdfSU5jRDVLbW55NTBrZEE&usp=drive_web#gid=0 '''inventory spreadsheet'''].

===Tour of Hall D===

===Tour of Hall D===

On January 10th, Sascha Somov took me to the accelerator site for a tour of the Hall D facility. Below are some pictures I took during the tour. Note that the pictures follow the direction of the photon beamline; each successive picture is downstream from the previous picture. The tour started with the [[Collimator Cave |'''"Collimator Cave"''']], which is the future home of the active collimator. We then toured the [[Hall D main room| '''Hall D main room''']].

Inside were the Barrel Calorimeter (BCAL) and Forward Calorimeter (FCAL) which will be used in identifying the resultant particles from the interaction of the photon beam with the liquid hydrogen target.

I have been using the C++ based program ROOT in order to analyze the data obtained from the active collimator.
