Notes from this meeting:

• Initial analysis indicates that beam energy during Sept test is about 5% lower than set value with an accuracy of about 0.3%.

• Ernst is calculating bubble chamber sensitivity to gamma ray flux. Previous experiments obtained a limit of <10^-11 with a gamma radioactive source.
