    1414* Simulations
    15         *
     15        * JP: An unexpected correlation is seen between energy and transverse momentum at the start of the vertical arc (see [raw-attachment:ArcStudyUpdate_12012026.pdf​ slides]).
     16                * Implied correlation between emittance and energy.
     17                * MP to check data for correlations along the machine once back from leave.
    1618* AOB
    17         *
     19        * Plan paper now CDR is near publication.
     20                * Frontiers series is planned for the collaboration; they offer useful promotional benefits, and have a higher impact factor (2.1, 2024) than to PRAB (1.8, 2024).
     21                * Will be distinct from pre-CDR in source description, model (7 Gabor lenses vs 5 previously), octupole location, etc, enough to warrant a new publication.
     22                * Paper will be stage 1 only. The FFA will be a separate publication, likely led by Ta-Jen.
     23                * It should include ion tracking up to the switching dipole.
     24                * Should cover source description, lattice, method of simulating, dynamics, and performance.
     25                * Inclusion of maths for the source description was debated; preference (JP, WS) is to include in the appendix.
     26        * Nick Dover giving a lecture on laser-generated particle beams 2/2/2026 at IC for PG students. Slides will be useful.
     27        * Should have a discussion with Nick on ion beams and any experimental agreement with literature.
     28        * IPAC paper should not be forgotten.
