sPHENIX MAPS tracker discussion

[Ross Corliss <rcorliss AT mit.edu>]

Hi Yasser,

The content looks good to me (though I know I am out of the loop on recent developments).  A few nitpicks:

Physics Motivation:  

- Are there extra spaces before and after 'enable'?  It's oddly separated from the sentence.

- productions --> production  (at least, in my opinion)

- I propose:  "Exploring mass dependence of various observables in open charm and open beauty production offers insight into the inner workings of the QGP, allowing us to derive key QGP parameters and control systematic uncertainties in those measurements."   -- if there is a particular theoretical systematic that is covered here, by all means include that comment.

MVTX detector design:

- it doesn't seem to hurt anything, but you do mention the 27 x 29 several times on this poster.  You could probably reduce this.

- before 'Full' there seems to be an extra space.

- It might be more useful to quote eta coverage than z.

MVTX Prototype highlights:

- I propose "Work to implement new features and improve existing firmware is in progress".  If you could list one such (either in the poster or during your discussion of it, that would be good.

- seems like some extra spaces in the 'next test beam runs' line.

Summary:

- has the production run already restarted at CERN?  That's good to hear!

- I suggest "full 3-layer MVTX and full spare of inner two layers").  And there are some extra spaces at the start of that line).

I hope the poster is well received at the conference!

Hi all,

please find a link to the first version of the poster presentation in HP2020 next week.

comments and suggestions would be more than appreciated.
