sPHENIX is a new detector at RHIC.

["Huang, Jin" <jhuang AT bnl.gov>]

Dear collaborators,

We are writing to send the submission-candidate of the first sPHENIX calorimetry prototype paper, and to look for the collaboration’s approval:  https://wiki.bnl.gov/sPHENIX/index.php/File:T-1044_publication_SubmissionCandidate1.pdf   (username: sphenix  password: babar1008)

First of all, we would like to thank you for all the useful comments and suggestions to the last two collaboration releases (and before that, comments from the calorimeter groups). These comments have been tracked and responded in this wiki page: https://wiki.bnl.gov/sPHENIX/index.php/T-1044_publication_collaboration_comments

As we have completed editing the paper, Dave and Gunther have requested us to send this submission-candidate version to the collaboration, and to report back to the next sPHENIX general meeting on Mar 31st in order to request final approval.

In this final-approval stage, we will still welcome comments on either typos in the paper, or on a major error. Since we have completed two iterations of collaboration releases, we have been advised to avoid further incremental improvement in the content, but to finalize for submission. Once approved, the final paper will be submitted to IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, and to arXiv.

Best regards,

The T-1044 paper committee
(Abhisek, Jin, Megan, Virginia, and Ron, with special thanks to outgoing committee member Vera)
