= Gabor Lens meeting: 27Aug20; 16:00 BST =

 == Summary of actions ==
 * **CW** Setup meeting with M.King to discuss results.
 * **KL** Get CW a wiki account.

== Notes ==
1. //Introduction, notes and actions//: **KL/All**
 * None
 * Big news: proposal submitted!  KL will post to the applications page on the LhARA page on the wiki.

2. //Progress on beam experiments paper//: **TN** \\
 Meeting today: not so much progress because of work on the proposal.  Hope to make more progress next week.
 
3. //Updates on the particle generation//: **HT** \\
 HTL has found paper describting 2D and 3D TNSA simulations.  Paper suggests that 2D simulation over-estimates cut-off energy.  Indication that present results on end-point is a factor of 2 different between 3D estimate and 2D estimate.  Needs now to look at how scaling for energy is done. \\
 2D gives over-estimate of the flux because in 3D force goes as 1/r^2.  In 2D its a cylindrical structure making it a 1/r dependence. \\
 Agree that need to get a 3D simulation for comparison.  Need to get a meeting with M.King at Strathclyde.  Need to benchmark the codes. \\
 Action: **CW** Setup meeting with M.King to discuss results.

4. //Updates on simulation of "IC" lens//: **TSD** \\
 See [raw-attachment:LhARA_Capture_27Aug20_TSD.pdf​ slides].  Points noted:
  * Offset of magnetic and electric axes does not lead to an offset in the centroid of the electron-cloud rotational motion.
  * CW comments that he wants now to review the new design to see how to introduce an ExB rotation.

5. //ERC proposal//: **KL/All** \\
 * Submitted; now we wait.

6. //AOB//: **All**
 * KL: EPSRC THT: need to worry about how we present the activity.  General feeling is that we should apply.
