LIU Beam Studies Review
The main goal is to review the status of beam studies in the injectors and to define work priorities before LS1 in view of being able to:
- specify the equipment to be built for LIU,
- estimate achievable beam characteristics in the successive accelerators.
Chairman
Giovanni Rumolo
Scientific secretaries:
PSB: Vivien Raginel
PS: Alexander Huschauer and Sandra Aumon
SPS: Wolfgang Bartmann and Helga Timko
External reviewers: Giuliano Franchetti (GSI), Dobrin Kaltchev (TRIUMF) and Alexey Burov (FNAL, currently at CERN)
Instructions for the speakers: The 20' talks are meant to be 15' (talk) + 5' (questions + discussion) and the 30' talks are meant to be 20' (talk) + 10' (questions + discussion).
Outcome: a summary report with a list of key items for study will be prepared by Giovanni Rumolo with the input of the scientific secretaries and the report from the external referees.
The organizers are pleased to invite you to the workshop lunch in Restaurant no.1 from 12.30 to 14.00. Please fill in the registration form to confirm your participation.

Space charge studies at 160 MeV in the PSB• Which brightness can we expect? • Impact of painting scheme? • Spotted resonances that need compensating?
