- Project Manager's report: CW
- All detectors are now shipped. Mississippi colleagues have removed the aerogel.
- MICE Hall decommissioning continues: H2-gas panel and hydride bed has been removed. South Mezzanine mods are underway.
- PPD ownership now for experiment. Hole in synchrotron wall will be blocked on the inside so that there are no more any RP issues.
- Quads are being removed, most likely they will be scrapped unless a home can be found. These quads need de-ionized water and have some earth-leakage issues. PS will contact CERN East Area Test Beams to see if there is interest.
- Focus coils will be stored, being organised by J. Boehm.
- PS brought up issie of recovery of TDC purchased for MICE. CW will organise recovery of boards for CM52.
- Organise a walk-around in the MICE Hall to see whether there is any equipment still worth recovering (action CW).
- Tracker Lab is to be repurposed; need to plan recovery of the equipment. (action KL/ABr)
- Software and computing status: PF
- No Paolo.
- Paper status and plans: CR
- Tracker analysis/reconstruction: Considering a noise-reduction algorithm based on FADC count or NPE. This will then be used to inform improvements in pattern recognition.
- Emittance-measurement paper: Revisit of consideration of apertures did not yield an apperture. Now moving 'experiment' to correct analysis. Indications are that this will help.
- Emittance-evolution paper: Referees meeting tomorrow. Awaiting result of this meeting.
- System-performance paper: No update since meeting on paper last week. CM52 we are expecting a draft of the paper.
- 6D/wedge paper: C. Brown, following LH2 analysis, will pick up this analysis.
- Scattering: J.Nugent plans to update this week. PS reported that following resolution of computing issues, JN is re-evaluating the alignment.
- LH2 scattering: G. Chapzitheodoridis is now progressing the LH2 scattering analysis. LiH results have been reproduced and he intends to present his results at the CM.
- Field-on scattering: A. Young continues to work on this.
- Students have been at RAL Summer School, so limitted progress in recent past.
- LH2 volume uniformity of density has been discussed with J. Boehm and C. MacWaters. Mis-calibration may have been introduced by current limiters used to limit degree of heating produced by level sensors in LH2.
- CM52: status of planning etc.: KL/All
- KL will send email reminding people that the accommodation block booking is almost saturated and will be dropped tomorrow.
- AOB
- Pressure on office space is mounting. KL will email collaboraiton to say need to clear so that we can reduce space use by factor of 2 on timescale of Christmas.
- D. Rajaram back for three months. Working on track reconstruction with a view to making sure we dont have to look at it again when he is done. We agree to invite him to MEMO/EB.
Summary of actions:¶
- KL: will migrate EB and CB mailing lists to jiscmail

- KL: Inform collaboraiton of impending reduction in office space.
- KL: Invite DR to MEMO/EB.
