      - '''Isotopes: '''I met virtually with Dongfeng Pan and Mahendra Chordia of UVA and Tyvin Rich of the HU Proton Therapy Institute, following which I sent them our original proposal which had the separation “recipe” spelled out in detail.  I am waiting to hear back from UVA.  Tyvin invited me to a face-to-face meeting (my first in almost a year!) and he enthusiastically wants to be part of the team.  He has collaborated for years with Pan and Mahendra, so i think he will convince them to join.  This would create an extremely strong team.  At the moment, I am laying low until they formally ask to join.  We are making significant progress in understanding the irradiation data with Adam Stavola and the two NMT students working closely together, with Doug Wells guiding.

      - '''ERLs: '''I have continued to make progress on the spreadsheet (see the latest version, attached).  We had the first Panel meeting and got buy-in for the plans.  Max Klein had prepared a layout of the report that we have to write and we are now waiting for volunteers to write the various sections - we actually already have some!  We are currently preparing for the next meeting.  We are being asked to organize a “public” information meeting sometime in June.  The meeting will be virtual and require some organization.

      - I have canceled participation in the student collaboration with VCU Nuclear Engineering, VUU and Sweetbriar as requested by Stuart and Andrei.  I managed to do it without creating too much trauma, so I can look for other collaboration opportunities.

        will not have an FOA before this summer (and we don’t know what form it will take) I have started looking into other funding sources.  There may be a possibility of seeking

        the other part of the program, the daughter isotopes produced when a 𝛾, n, p,d,or 𝛼 strike the mother.  I have changed Loida’s project to complete this part of the program,

        and then have Lila and Loida publish the final result together.  There was an excellent article on gallium in Physics Today by Michael Dickey at North Carolina State in

      - '''ERLS: '''The panel met and we have assigned writing tasks, most have accepted.  The timeline is to produce a very first draft in May so that there can be an “community meeting" in June to present the rough vision and seek input.  This has to happen before the CERN SPC on June 22,23 and the CERN Council meeting June 26.  So that will be a fair amount of work over the next couple of months.

  Previous (Mar 15 - Mar 26)
     - Some more simulations to get to the bottom of the energy gain puzzle. There have been some interesting ideas but no convincing solution yet.
     - We made a fresh photocathode for the UITF gun to have enough juice for the optics studies that were planned for the remainder of the time before the upcoming shutdown. However, 
       there were mechanical problems during the transfer of the cathode into the gun. Joe ended up succeeding, but after half a day of beam operation, there was an arc in the gun, and 
       it is now making field emission to the point where it cannot be operated. Whether anything meaningful can be done before the shutdown is not clear yet.
     - I had some discussions with Fu Ma about his simulation of the space charge issue in the pulsed cooling experiment. He is using simplified formulas for the field, which may be
       good enough, but he is seeing an emittance increase without applying jitter, which we did not observe in our simulation. The reasons for that are yet to be determined.
  Next (Mar 29 - Apr 9)
     - UITF work depending on the course of action we decide on...
     - Hoping to make some more improvements to JSPEC.

   Previous two weeks (Mar 15 - Mar 26)
     - Laser particle counter: continued literature search on micron sized particle delivery. Detector group has dismantled the current test setup and provided photos of the 
       setup before and after disassembly. Understanding previous data from the commercial (Wexx) particle counter to enable calibration of the prototype counters to be delivered. 
       Vendor anticipates several weeks of additional schedule delay due to underestimating effort needed to develop software for data acquisition and analysis, but is currently 
       implementing a new "acceleration" based algorithm for particle detection.
     - Biweekly meeting with Omnisensing Photonics on detector prototype progress.
     - Revisiting magnetized ion beam from magnetized ion sources to better understand current progress and limitations.
   Next two weeks (Mar 29 - Apr 9)
     - Continued literature review on coupled ion beams from magnetized ion sources. Work at FAIR describes using collimation to reduce the transverse emittance of the coupled beam,
       collimating away over 50% of the beam in a bid to increase dimensionless beam brilliance. Working on setting up simulations in TRACK to work through A. Hutton's initial idea
       of specific beam transforms to recover a round, uncoupled beam.
     - Laser particle counter: Vendor anticipates delivery of 12 channel prototype detector towards the end of April - working to get a lab bench into the reserved space in the 
       Structures Lab in advance of the prototype delivery, and set up the existing test setup in the new space. Wexx particle counter data and manual indicate that the commercial 
       particle counter can measure particles up to about 3.6 um in diameter, which is somewhat useful for calibrating the new detector.
     - Biweekly meeting with Omnisensing Photonics on detector prototype progress and delivery schedule.

     - Isotopes: I met via BlueJeans with my REU student, Loida Rosado Del Rio, on Wednesday for the first time.  She seems enthusiastic about working as the Editor on our next proposal.  I also had a large meeting on Friday with our new collaborators from UVA and HU, Loida and our existing team from JLab and NMT, so that everyone could introduce themselves.  I think we now have a powerful team and are much better placed to get funded.  We will start attacking the proposal at the beginning of May when Loida officially starts.  We are close to finalizing the 50 kW crucible design (Joe and Pavel Degtiarenko) to a level sufficient to close out the Milestone for our existing proposal.  This will be “recycled” as input to the new proposal.  This week, I will start preparing the APS talk that will be given by Steve.        
     - ERLs: This is proceeding smoothly.  I have asked several JLab staff members for short write-ups and have got positive answers from all - including George Neil even though he is retired!

       will not have an FOA before this summer (and we don’t know what form it will take) I have started looking into other funding sources.  There may be a possibility of seeking 
       SBIR funds, I have feelers out!  Lila will finish up her program on decay modes of all of the isotopes and will publish that at IPAC’21.  She will not have time to complete
       the other part of the program, the daughter isotopes produced when a 𝛾, n, p,d,or 𝛼 strike the mother.  I have changed Loida’s project to complete this part of the program, 
       and then have Lila and Loida publish the final result together.  There was an excellent article on gallium in Physics Today by Michael Dickey at North Carolina State in 
       Raleigh.  I contacted him and will be talking with him next week.  I think he will be an excellent collaborator if I can talk him into joining us.         
     - ERLS: The panel met and we have assigned writing tasks, most have accepted.  The timeline is to produce a very first draft in May so that there can be an “community meeting" in June to present the rough vision and seek input.  This has to happen before the CERN SPC on June 22,23 and the CERN Council meeting June 26.  So that will be a fair amount of work over the next couple of months.   
     - PERLE: I contacted Jean-Luc Biarrotte directly, in French, and actually got a response.  Their marked up copy of the ICRADA was delivered, I forwarded it to Rhonda who has contacted me about her comments, and I think it is close to going up to the DOE again - I think!  .
