sPHENIX EMCal discussion

[Victor Riabov <riabovvg AT rcf2.rhic.bnl.gov>]

  Dear Jin,

 A very nice and representative poster. I think that the poster would be better perceived if you added Conclusion section that would summarize basic results and plans (do tests confirm M-C studies?, any plans to change design?, schedule for full detector? etc.)

  With best regards, Victor.

Hello everyone

Please find a draft poster for " Design and test-beam performance of the sPHENIX calorimeter system " as on the following link:
https://www.phenix.bnl.gov/phenix/WWW/publish/jinhuang/Meetings/2017.02.06%20QM/sPhenix_QM17poster_calo.pdf

Comments and suggestions the next three days will be appreciated. I will continuing refining the poster in meanwhile and printout later in the coming week.

Cheers,

Jin
