Description
Oscillation working group meeting
09.00 - 09.30
Agenda, news update, report to ECFA (Convenors)
09.30 - 10.15
The beta-beam concept (P Zucchelli)
Coffee break
10.45 - 11.15
Nuclei production for the beta-beam (N N)
11.15 - 11.45
Accelerator issues of the beta-beam (N N)
11.45 - 12.30
A critical appraisal of the beta-beam concept (Discussion)
Lunch
14.15 - 14.45
Update on the performance of a large water detector for a low energy super beam, CP reach of a Megaton water detector (J Burguet)
14.45 - 15.15
Update on the performance studies of a large magnetized iron detector (A Cervera)
15.15 - 16.00
A 10 kt magnetized detector at Gran Sasso utilizing the ATLAS B0 prototype coil (F Dydak and J J Gomez Cadenas)
16.00 - 17.00
Discussion on the organization of further work (moderated by convenors)
Proposed issues:
- pro's and con's for a specific energy/baseline
- balance between beam intensity and detector mass
- detector concepts and necessary R & D
(it is proposed to have a first discussion, with a view to preparing for the underground detector workshop at Sitges (Barcelona) on 9-11 November, and achieving a consensus within the working group in the 11 December meeting on the organization of further work).
