  1. NAPAC’19 SPCC Mtg Synoptic Tor Raubenheimer January 16, 2019

  2. Sample Synoptic Table

  3. Synoptic Table • Two main issues: • Agree to the MC allocations • Arrange specific sessions to best avoid conflicts

  4. Past IPAC Abstract Submissions versus MC

  5. 2. Abstracts by MC IPAC2019 SPC#3@Bangkok

  6. Division of Main Classifications

  7. Submission of Suggestions for Invited Talks • Proposed abstracts for invited talks at NAPAC’19 do not follow past distributions. In particular, MC06 was very low. • % Planned % Suggested • MC1 4 4 • MC2 6 6.5 • MC3 4 4.5 • MC4 4 5 • MC5 5 5 • MC6 5.5 2.5 • MC7 6 7.5 • MC8 3.5 3.5 Is this reflective or an anomaly?

  8. Reallocating sessions • Blocks of 1.5 hrs and 2 hrs  could sub-divide blocks but …. • Only four 1.5 hr blocks – early AM session

  9. Sample Synoptic Table

  10. Session Allocation • Want people interested in topics not to be too torn between two sessions. Challenging. Suggestions please! • Suggest MC1 / MC7 one day and then MC2 / MC7 another and similarly MC2 / MC3 and then MC3 / MC4 • Other issue is choice of 1.5 hr slots that are adjacent to Tutorials. Do not want either session to detract from the other. • Presently: 2xMC5 / Tut, MC6 / Tut, and MC8 / Tut

  11. Plenary Sessions • 1.5 hour opening plenary session and 2 hour closing session • Opening session will start late allowing for people to arrive • 30 minute welcome and description of NAPAC’19 and welcome from the host institution is really only 20 min. • Two more 30 minute plenary talks help define the context of the mtg • Engaging talks on new acc. science or exciting new opportunities • EIC and/or FRIB might be opportunities • Closing session has three 30 minute slots: • Focus on interesting – why are we here (meaning NAPAC) • Some ideas: Cosmic accelerators; Development of medical isotopes • What comes next or what motivates a younger crowd
