 == Notes == 
 
+1. //Introduction, notes and actions//: KL/All
+ * **JPo:** Provide TSD with the geometry of the present prototype Gabor lens
+  * **Stands.** Still seeking the dimensions of the present Gabor lens.  
+ * **KL/RB:** Take a look at the Bingham et al paper on laser-driven accelerator for medicine
+  * **Stands.**
+ * **TSD:** Provide beam envelope as a function of distance along the beam line for CW to plot
+  * **Done.**
+
+2. //Updates on the calculation of instability//: **RB**
+ - With design in hand, RB can prepare a calculation of the instablisities.
+
+3. //[https://ccap.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk/trac/attachment/wiki/Research/GaborLens/Meetings/2020/05/21/E_inj_whyte.pdf Electron injection simulations]//: **CW**
+ - Get electrons on axis by shaping electron emitter.
+ - RB: optimise to get electrons on axis to limit diocrotron instability.
+
+4. //Updates on the particle generation//: **HT**
+ - Dose-rate calculation.
+ - Has run a simulation with SMILEI and is now beginning to unpack it
+
+5. //ERC proposal timeline//: **KL**/discussion
+
+6. //Discussion of plasma simulation code - CST vs VSIM//: **All**
+ - Some experience at Strathclyde; CST has recent upgrade.
+ - We discuss possible ways forward and conclude that we take a practical approach.  Use VSIM from DF for now.  Look at CST as we go.
+ - TSD thinks VSIM more powerful that CST.  So, happy with parallel approach.
+
+7. AoB
+ - None.
