Introduction

• Rhodri Jones (CERN)

Room: 866/2-D05 Welcome to CERN. CERN context for the project. HL-LHC and the potential applications. Overall project timescale.

HL-LHC collaboration

• Carsten Peter Welsch (Cockcroft Institute / University of Liverpool)

Room: 866/2-D05 Contractual context. Brief history of this technology. Recruitment plans and situation. (Financial situation?), main milestones.

Beam-Gas test setup at Cockcroft (30+10) Room: 866/2-D05 Background to the instrument at Cockcroft. Current design and operations. Recent results. Plans for layout and tests for the next year.

Fluorescence monitoring (30+10) Room: 866/2-D05 Background from GSI in this area. Theoretical performance of a luminescence monitor. Main expected issues and requirements, either in the design or measurement benches. Proposed next steps.

Gas jet simulations: High pressure (15+10)

• Raymond Veness (CERN)

Room: 866/2-D05 Simulations from Paolo on high-pressure gas flow. Implications for the design. Next steps.

Gas jet simulations: Low pressure (15+10)

• Roberto Kersevan (CERN)

Room: 866/2-D05 Background to low-pressure MoFlow model. First results. Next steps.
