EVO 123569, at 16:00 (GMT), duration : 01:00

Agenda:

 

1) simulation progress (Ming et al.)

2) R&D progresses

   a) FSC calorimeter

   b) BSO crystal calorimeter

   c) TRD progress

 

3) EIC R&D review and closeout

4)FSC and iTPC LoI discussions

5) PAC Decadal plan input (Carl et al.) 

   Physics motivations:
   polarized pp/pA: Spin Structure, CGC
   AA: BES phase II, large-eta correlations, heavy-flavor jets?

    MIE: FSC and iTPC in near term

   Capital equipment: Roman Pot for 3He^?

   R&D toward EIC: FSC and TRD

Agenda:

a) Update on R&D proposals to EIC R&D call 
   i) Forward Calorimeter System (Huan)

   ii) TRD R&D (Zhangbu)

b) S&C Geometry/Forward Tracking Update (Ming and/for Victor/Jason)  

 i) updates:
http://www.star.bnl.gov/protected/lfspectra/swing/eSTAR/eSTAR_simu_0508.pptx (Ming)

http://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/StvFw.ppt 

  ii) priorities (discussion with Jerome)
    1) iTPC geometry (next FCS geometry) 
        May need Hao to check once geometry is in.
    2) integrated into Stv tracking (FGT, iTPC, ETTIE) 
    3) in parallel (event generator interface, should be ready in a couple of weeks)

c) June Workshop Agenda and goals
