1. MICE NEWS MICE VC 155 Next Collaboration meeting will be
Jun at IIT and the 19th at Fermilab
right before the MAP collaboration meeting.
2. The following one will be at RAL in October.
3. Next MICE Project Board, MPB-5, will take place on May 9.  
NEW: it will be preceded by a two day RSLR
(Resource Loaded Schedule Review)

3. Nb: chair of the FAC

4. Where are we now?
Spectrometer solenoid SS2 has now reached full current for 24hrs, 
and a few further settings required for MICE operation
in both flip or solenoid mode.
Now ready for (coarse or detailed) field mapping and shipping. 
THIS IS A MAJOR STEP FORWARD!
2. Focus coil FC1 has reached full field in solenoid mode 
but has experienced several quenches at the same current (157.6, 159, 162A)
 training is too slow, we need to reach ~ 225A … 
investigation by TESLA Co. This may take warm-up and opening – i.e. weeks.
3. This poses the question of where and how to best do the full field map
Original plan was to do AFC then SS2 but may do reverse.
 started the discussion at the TB this tuesday
good news : 
We can do the field map anywhere iff we have the Virostek-plate on (Holge)
We can also perform the detailed field maps either at Wang or MICE hall
starting in April (Bergsma, Giudici)
now… need to understand implications and decide
The elephant in the room is the mag. field mitigation plan.
Dedicated discussion planed for next week. Decision EB next Friday.
