Task D Role in E852

At Brookhaven Lab, Alex Dzierba was the founding co-spokesperson of the E852 collaboration from its inception until 1995. The Task D group designed and built the 3000-element lead glass electromagnetic calorimeter for this experiment, the readout electronics and much of the triggering system . Scott Teige was the Project Manager of E852 who coordinated the assembly of the experiment and Jeff Gunter, Rob Lindenbusch and Eric Scott worked on all aspects of commissioning the lead glass calorimeter. Paul Smith designed all of the electronics associated with the calorimeter and experiment trigger.

Future Analysis Work

The E852 data set is one of the largest data sets available for studying the light quark meson spectrum. Only recently has compute power become available to exploit the full statistical power of this data set. In addition to studying the light quark meson specturm, the E852 data set is ideal for exploring the both the computational and phenomenological techniques need to to do high statistics Partial Wave Analysis.
