• Actions
  • Update document.
    • CW: In progress. Goal is to have this done by the September collab meeting. May not include dose.
    • WS: Looking at dose calculation and should be able to include it.
  • Radiation.
    • NB: Contractor engaged, will start in Nov. Can think about using temporary wall instead of shutters but this does not provide the same flexibility.
    • No need to keep this action.
• Simulations
  • Slides from WS.
    • Looking at the dose calculation done by HT Lau.
  • Slides from LP
    • Looking at optimising the octupole in stage 1.
    • Asymmetry in y is because the initial beam is asymmetric.
    • JP: Should look at using two octupoles to improve uniformity in y.
    • Discussion
  • Update from JP
    • Investigating FD doublet. Vertical tune then becomes very high.
    • Looking at FF doublet with very small second F.
• NB: Update on engineering.
  • Vacuum modelling of the nozzle. Will have details to show next week.
  • FETS vacuum chamber. First pass FEA is done.
  • Meeting scheduled to discuss target vessel in Strathclyde.
  • Looking at adding detail to power consumption.
  • Updated schematic.
    • Shielding wall has now moved.
    • Need to agree the other elements in the beam line that will take up space, e.g. profile monitors, wall current monitors, etc.
  • Details of the cavity?
    • JP has looked at estimating the frequency of the first one.
• AOB
  • KL: RR and KL working on simulation of the Lion beamline for proof of principle experiment. Will show some results soon.
  • JP: Is there an update on the BDSim workshop date.
    • Need a Doodle poll.
  • WS is design review and collab meeting on the same day?
    • KL: Yes.
