- 17:05 → 17:20
  
  Discussion 15m
  
  Few open points for follow-up:
  - Optimize losses in RCS chain for best overall performance, allowing different transmission in the two or three machines
  - Would two RCS be sufficient to accelerate from 60 GeV to 1.5 TeV?
  - Cost functions per machine part: could one make an assumption for a cost per unit length of RF (plus some infrastructure cost offset per RF section), idem for unit length of magnets?
  - Average gradient of RF sections: 30 MV/m
  - Resistive wall impedance?
  - Is transition gamma of ~20 a good number for the first RCS stage?
  - FFA alternative for RCS?
- 17:20 → 17:30
