Re: Large area SiPMs from MEPhI (fwd)
Hi Everyone -
while the historical performance of SciPMs may not be relevant today,
I think that the question that Elton asked about the report that he got
from Mahbub on results that were first presented in 2005. In that snese,
I assume that we got the answer we wanted. Clearly when we get to
the point of purchase, we will look at everything again, but knowing the
history of this rapid deveolpement is not at all bad.
