Technical • Target • Scrutiny at the RAL CM • Prototype test in beam in January • Readiness review in November • Benchmark pi-production vs beam loss • Beam Line • Optics • new rates & beam sizes to be issued to PID group • CM13 • Solenoid by CM? • Cryogenics – kick-off meeting imminent
Technical • RF • Aim single test stand • Test components for two systems • Availability issues with tubes • ISIS 116 tubes are being ring-fenced for ISIS • New 116 tubes available • need to buy & fabricate glass in next two years • expensive – tube made to order at market price • 170 tubes • Cern tube – low demand • available for ~ next year • no plan in place – depends on CERN’s attitude
