Andrew Hutton

   Previous two weeks (June 21 - July 2) 
     - Isotopes:  I have been told not to submit a proposal that involves irradiations at LERF until he talks with the DOE.  At this time, I am working with my UVA collaborators to craft a proposal where they buy copper 67 and carry out all of the radiochemistry.  I still need to close out the current grant, after which, I do not see how I can l can keep our team together, which will make  it difficult for Jefferson Lab to get back into isotopes.  Sad!

On the other hand, Loida is doing really well with her program to search for new radioisotope production pathways. She has submitted an Abstract to AccApp’2021 and I have contacted the Program Chair regarding student funding for her to attend in person.

     - ERL Panel: getting more active again; I will be presenting the present status to the Particle Physics community on July 9 and spent a lot of time preparing it.  Max Brüker has been an incredible help to us in editing the document, and will be getting more and more involved.     
     - PERLE:I had a PERLE Collaboration Board meeting on Friday, June 25.  We are informed that the CNRS have signed the ICRADA and sent it via DHL to Jefferson Lab, but we haven’t seen it yet.  All the other collaborators have signed the Collaboration Agreement except for BINP.  Emails to the BINP representative went unanswered, so I contacted the BINP Lab Director and he immediately agreed to sign it and appointed a new representative.  Our participation will be more difficult with the departure of Frank Marhauser.              
   Next two weeks (July 5 - July 16)  
     - Isotopes: a really busy time with several meetings with UVA and NMT.  As it stands, UVA will proceed with a proposal that is purely biological, and Jefferson Lab and NMT will not be involved.  NMT will lead a proposal to study Scandium47 with irradiations at the Idaho Accelerator Center.  We would probably be involved in targeted - still being worked out.  The end of project write up for our current isotope funding is due July 30, I haven’t yet started to put it together.    
     - ERL: I gave my ERL talk File:ERL RD Roadmap July 2021.pdf on Friday July 9 to about 145 people. This took up a lot of time.  The ERL sub-Panel took up even more time as we have wrestled with understanding the CERC.  Next week, I will have the last meeting on the CERC as well as the first meeting where Telnov will present the ERLC.  I foresee another frenetic round of interactions between the sub-Panel members who are incredibly active - I regularly have a dozen emails early in the morning as the others get up before me!   I contacted Wim Leemans, now at DESY, to try and talk him into participating in PERLE.  We will have a video-conference next week.  With the loss of Frank Marhauser and all the EIC work, I do not see Jefferson Lab having a big involvement in the SRF for PERLE, so maybe we can work with DESY to participate in the SRF.   Hopefully, Alex will be able to continue leading the optics studies.  
     - HIPERLAC: I responded to questions from Leigh and next week I have to prepare a talk.  
     - ALcC: we will have a meeting on July 13 to discuss the ILC status.
