Apologies:

• CAD - slides from CH
  • Looking at horizontal and vertical options to give more room for diagnostics.
  • Work being done by colleague on LhARA beam line layout.
  • Discussion on the placement of first gabor lens/solenoid.
• KL:
  • Question on fringe field effect of the gabor lens electro-static E field.
  • Discussion
• Update from JP:
  • FFA field in Mathematica for double spiral in FF config.
  • Keeping field integral the same means the radius of the ring increases to 4m.
  • Looking at different configurations to obtain stable tunes.

• Slides from WS:
  • End station dose.
    • Comparison with HT's simulation results.
      • Discrepancies being investigated.
    • Need to look at simulating the Markus ion chamber.
