  2. JRA1 participants Contractors: UNIZAR, CEA/CNRS, INFN, USFD, MPIK, TUM, JRC Non-contractors: RAL, FZK, Dortmund, Silesia, Henryk Niewodniczanski, Pol. Milano, CUPP JRA1 WPs WP1 – Measurement of backgrounds in the EU underground labs WP2 –Development of a library of background simulation codes WP3 –R&D for UL background techniques and facilities in the labs WP4 –R&D on radio-purity of materials and purification techniques

  3. Welcome to Jean-Côme Lanfranchi (TUM) Meetings:

  4. Next events ILIAS General Meeting (26-28 Feb, Chambéry): - Talk on Neutron background studies in the DULby Eirini Tziaferi - Talk on Muon-induced background for underground physics experiments by Luciano Pandola Mid-term review (28 Feb, Chambéry): Talk about “technical progress” of tasks/deliverables/modifications for JRA1 activity (José M. Carmona) ILIAS-next (1 March, Chambéry): Talk about new JRA1 in ILIAS-next (Matthias Laubenstein) ANNUAL REPORT (send to Gilles before 5 March!!)

  5. Tasks and deliverables for 3rd year
