NPS EXPERIMENT PROPOSALS
1) DVCS with Positrons (Carlos)
- Goal: clean separation of DVCS2 term from DVCS-BH interference - more stringent constraint on CFFs
- Same experimental configuration as approved E12-13-010, 77 days, >5uA positrons, 25% of electron beam time
- Discussion:
- General comment on proposal document: add an executive summary - start document more general, start with formulas, then what is unique about positrons, why it is crucial to measure DVCS2
- For fit improvement discussion perhaps best to say that shown are the uncertainties for the approved electron statistics and assumed positron statistics
- For correlations to make point that can much better separate H/Htilde make plot 1D or emphasize the improvement, e.g. with numbers - highlight the most relevant part in the matrix and reduce emphasis on the rest of it
- Proposal can formally list the support of the NPS collaboration
2) TCS (Marie, Dustin, Vardan)
- Discussion of the posted document:
- Document is 100 pages long - too long, too much on phenomenology, not enough on experiment
- Very theory heavy - too much formalism, better to give highlights, most important points and references to the details
- Include a high level summary as suggested for DVCS with positrons - must make clear in very beginning what the proposal is about
- Experimental section incomplete - need to include background estimates etc.
- Most crucial: will the detector actually work?
- One possible approach: discuss in ~20 pages how addressed PAC questions and leave the rest as backup
- Action Item: update document and circulate for comments
