Collaboration Board Report Chris Booth October 2017

Announcement Congratulations to Ken on his appointment as Director of the Centre for Clinical Applications of Particles, at Imperial College. All were pleased that he was happy to continue as Spokesperson, and no-one felt there was a conflict of interest which would impede him leading the collaboration.

Spokesperson/EB Report – Ken Long EB Activities: Personnel – E Overton’s responsibilities distributed. Thanks to S Boyd for operation & shift coordination. Tracker software rolling review almost complete; ToF software review initiated. Step IV Run plan revised for longer H2 filling; commission M2D end of this week. Will not complete all scattering measurements. About to make case to funding agencies to use cycle 2017/03. Collaboration confirmed support for this and commits to providing shifters & experts to allow operation.

Spokesperson’s Report continued Cooling Demo, Protvino: K Long visited in August. Operation of MICE there looks possible. Political considerations – wish for strong CERN commitment. Resources: E Overton (DAQ & Tracker DAQ) – cover by D. Rajaram, M. Uchida, P. Kyberd, D. Adey. SS support – thanks to US collaborators. LH2 – expert support from team at RAL. Papers: Several in progress, some still need lead authors.

Spokesperson’s Report continued Next International Review in March: To include “lessons learned”. Communicate thoughts, issues etc. to Ken. Future Collaboration Meetings: Week of 26th Feb – 2nd Mar 2018 Week of 25th – 29th Jun 2018 Week of 8th – 12th Oct 2018 Should the format be different, shorter plenary, more workshops?

Project Manager’s Report – C. Whyte Liquid H2 system: Safety approval obtained. Leaks fixed. Cooling slower than expected. Now “satisfyingly boring”. Trackers: Cryostat cold-heads refurbished. Recalibration in progress. Superconducting magnets: Smooth run-up for data taking. SSD M2 ramp-up on Thursday.

Project Manager’s Report continued Data taking: All shifts full (after visa problem!). Need more BLOCs. Effective data taking. Future schedule for H2, magnets & magnet experts presented. 2017/03 may be financed by underspend on DL electrical work plus sale of tetrodes to ISIS – but will require staffing discussion with PPD & TD.

Operations – P. Franchini Cycles 2017/01 and 2017/02 summarised: LH2 solenoid & flip modes. Alarms – A. Kurup identified & suppressed transient alarms. Alarms are now real! (But still some limits to adjust.) Tracker calibration – big improvement in on-line plots. Thanks to MOMs & BLOCs (but still BLOC slots to fill).

Next CB Chair Institutes polled for nominations. 6 names put forward. After some thought, 5 nominees decided not to stand. P. Kyberd stood unopposed, elected unanimously! Takes over at next CM.

Common Fund – P. Soler ’16-’17 census reported last CM: 57 members => £171K expected income. Division £135K cash + £36K in kind. South Korea’s payment due Jan. 2018. China & Switzerland payments outstanding. Question of Common Fund for next year to be discussed at next CM.

Funding Updates UK: Post-Doc nominally to end 30th June ’18; Students will continue to 2020. US: FNAL selling superconductor to fund people; Mississippi & IIT “no cost” extension to Sep. ’18. INFN: Experiment considered finished in 2017; 40-50% funding for extra year to dismantle etc.
