Agenda:
1) FMS preshower status (Oleg)
2) town Meeting Recap: cold/hot QCD
hotQCD and coldQCD jointly recommend
EIC as the highest priority for future
facility construction.
3) 2020+ forward upgrade plan/proposal
4) S&T review close-out
STAR dataset time from data-taken to publication
S&T committee is concerned about this.
Both Elke (spin) and I (HI/STAR) were asked to present this in
two different sessions.
Three action items:
I) HFT operation for next two runs
continue communications to DOE
ii) detail document of data-taking efficiency and improvements
(5 most important factors)
iii) detail (RCF) computing plan/optimization up to 2018
5) pA beam energy
should pA CM energy be same as pp or proton beam energies same?

5) Offline production (run13) and production preparation (run 14)
1) upgrade recap:
agenda: https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/conference/timetable/talk/31071
proposal for future timeline and priorities
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/STAR_future_plan_UIC.pdf
a) iTPC management and plans
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/iTPC%20status.pdf
Project Manager: Flemming Vidaebek
Technical Director: Jim Thomas
b) run16 discussions at upgrade workshop
pp510 vs AA 62 (PAC requested both collaborations consider both cases)
FMS vs HCAL (I proposed to setup a committee to look into this)
c) forward upgrade (FCS+FTS in 2020+)
need a team for proposal in a few months.
2) action items from BES workshop at LBL
i) dN/dy vs rapidity for PID spectra in BES I
ii) strangeness ratio ( e.g. (K-/K+)/(pbar/p) ratio) from STAR for Lattice QCD comparison
currently, theorists took our data and calculated ratios by themselves, sys. errors are
not propogated correctly.
iii) 14.6 GeV production and analyses (HIGH PRIORITY)
iv) TPC+TOF proton Kurtosis and alsowith different rapidity windows
v)preparing new panel plots for BES II
Fig.19 in https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/BES_WPII_ver6.9_Cover.pdf
is more a summary from BES I, which is good.
but we need a summary panel (similar) clearly presenting our need for BES II.
vi) figure out a way to study baryon stopping and how the fluctuation in stopping impacts
Kurtosis analysis

3) collaboration meeting (agenda, tshirts, council chair election):
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/meetings/star-collaboration-meeting-november-3-7
4) run15 preparations
start forming the trigger board group
6) postpone run15 to start in Feb. 2015?
7) APS site visit and survey
We should start with survey?
