  • Attended: Mikhail, Moskov, Avetik, Nick, Jim, Justin, Mark, Tanja, Volker, Sasha, and Igor.

Cesar, Kijun, Marouen (he is coming to JLab very soon), Maxim, Nilanga, and Ilija will not be able to attend this meeting.


  • We need to move rather quickly as we have six weeks only to submit our KLF proposal to the GlueX Collaboration to get an approval for PAC and the PAC deadline is June 4th (sharp). The PAC is scheduled for a week of July 16th.


  • Moskov for status of pi-K. [1]. Nilanga's slides (using his analysis of the GlueX data for spring of 2017) are here [2]
  • Cesar for status of PWA for hyperons: "I think it is better that we talk once I have finished the KN analysis. Let me update you on the status. The KN code is ready as well as the upload of the database and the fitter. The only piece that remains is to include the piece of code that accounts for the antikaon-nucleon scattering, necessary to have K_L kaons. So, if everything goes well I will be able to provide you with amplitudes before I fly to Monterrey. I will provide both observables and amplitudes, so you can use whatever suits you." Mark has a brilliant idea to use pi-p elastic (the same isospin content as KLp does) to prove a beam time request. That is doable using SAID PWA technology which Igor will do.
  • Mikhail for status of MC for the 'neutron' target data.
  • Kijun for status of MC for piLambda. [8]
  • Tanja for status of CPS for KLF. [9]
  • Mikhail for status of the Flux Monitor. [10][11]
  • Igor for status of the Be-target assembly conceptual design. It took a time to figure out the exact geometry of the collimator cave (location of the Be-target assembly).[12]. [13]. Results for the neutron and gamma background are coming soon. [14]. RadCon limit at tally #5 is 1 mrem/h, while current dose is 0.05+-0.03 mrem/h (57%).
  • Justin for status of the Start Counter.
  • Chris for status of the cryogenic target.
