Required Diffuse Reflectivity
200 x 100 x 60 cm3 → 2 Super-K PMTs → φ=3.8% for ε >40%, need R>94% (8.4 bounces)
Next Prototype: Cube
40 x 40 x 40 cm3 → 2 8” SK Veto PMTs → φ=5.9%
for ε >40%, need R>90%, (5 bounces)
Take this to Soudan…

Schedule….
Proceed with 40 x 40 x 40 detector – 2 months (?) Susanne has scoped out halon manufacture
Give up on scintillator (95% confident) Major acquisitions split between FY2008/2009
