What are the physicial quantities used in the comparison? (Phase-space plots and what else?) What are the parameters that are used in fitting the optics tuning data? (For example initial particle distribution, magnet settings, absorber settings, et cetera?) How are the multiple Monte Carlo and other simulations integrated together? Why are the interface locations where they are?_ *** Response: C. Rogers, P. Franchini, D. Rajaram: attachment:homework-question-1.pdf ## _What is the capability of U.S. members of the MICE collaboration to take part in the 2017/02 cycle (from September 19 to October 27) if such a data-taking run occurs? What would be the optimum (approximate) distribution between shifters and hardware experts?_ *** Response: M. Palmer: attachment:MPB_Q2_Response.pdf [[governance:External|Back]] h2.
