Dear Wlodek, Fleming, Tim, and Bill, I made six links at the top of the spin discussion web page: http://spin.riken.bnl.gov/rsc for the documents and sections mentioned by Gerry below: - Report on the Scientific and Technology Review of RHIC - Charge to the RHIC Spin Plan Group from Tom Kirk - Section 1. Executive summary - Section 3. Accelerator performance - Section 5. Spin plan schedule - Section 6. Summary Please get PDF files from these links. If you have any problem or something I can help, please let me know. Best regards, Yuji From: "Gerry Bunce" Subject: status of spinplan Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2005 20:14:24 -0500 > Hello Wlodek, Fleming, Tim, and Bill--We are trying > very hard to get the spinplan to you so that the > experimenters can weigh in, beyond those writing it. > As you know, we are committed to completing the > document in time for the budget briefing Feb. 15 at > DOE for the BNL management. > > I expect that the document will be in very good shape > by then, but the difficulty is in getting sufficient > time for experiment feedback. > > The plan is still in a too early draft stage for the > science and experiment sections, so we would like to > distribute the other sections now and distribute the > science and experiment sections Tuesday morning. > > Yuji Goto will place the "completed" sections on the > web in the spin discussion page section, and give you > the location on Saturday. This will have > --report from the DOE review (which requested the > spin plan) > --charge from Tom Kirk (we should emphasize that in > considering 10 and 5 spin weeks per year we are > responding to the charge, and also not changing > the beam use proposal approach to setting the > actual schedule) > --executive summary (this is a draft, but has been in > place for 4 weeks--the main issue for me here > is how to present the various upgrades, so this > is important for everyone) There are 3 figures > on gluon, W, and schedule that are not in place > (the schedule figure is already in the > accelerator section) > --accelerator section (this is complete) > --spin schedule (draft but only small things to > complete) > --summary (complete) > >
