Dear Colleagues, The project managers would like to announce The Second ILC – GDE Accelerator
Advisory Panel Review. The Review will focus on the Proposal for
the ILC Re-baseline for Technical Design Phase 2 It will be held at Oxford University, in
the Physics Department, on 6th – 8th January,
2010. Background The agenda will include presentations on the proposed
new baseline design, including responses to preliminary inquiries from the
Panel. PRIMARY AUTHORS of the SB2009 Proposal Document and their immediate
support team will be called upon to prepare and deliver presentations are very
strongly encouraged to attend. A primary goal is to maximize our interaction
with the panel, so your presence is important. The Review itself is not a closed meeting, but we expect the Panel to
have closed sessions as is customary. Meeting room space is limited, so: Please
let us know as soon as possible if you plan to attend. (Also copy Maxine
Hronek). Agenda The Review
Agenda will cover all aspects of the Proposal for the new baseline,
‘SB2009’. We do not intend to include a review of ongoing technical
R & D activities. These will be the subject of a subsequent review. From
its inception, the Accelerator Advisory Panel was intended to be tightly linked
to the Project Team. Many of the Panel’s members have strong ties within
the community and they know the specifics of the design, (and the R & D
that support it), very well. We
expect the Panel to have read and discussed our Proposal Document (due to be
completed 18th December, 2009) and legacy material from Accelerator
Design and Integration Meetings and from GDE Plenary meetings. As part of their
process, and following roughly in the steps that led to the first review in
April of this year, we expect to receive a critique of the Proposal, including
questions and comments. Because of this, presentations at the upcoming review
should not simply repeat the material in our Proposal, but should focus on
their input. Meeting logistics and related details to be sent by Maxine Hronek. As always, we look forward to your questions, comments and suggestions. Best regards, Nick and Akira and Marc |
