USE AND DISSEMINATION OF KNOWLEDGE

IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH CONTRACT PROVISIONS AND TO SAFEGUARD CONTRACTOR RIGHTS A REVIEW COMMITTEE HAS BEEN SET UP

COMPOSITION: The RC, appointed by the SC, is composed of 3 members, two proposed by the SC Chair and the third, chosen among the MB Members, designated by the Project Leader.

ROLE OF THE RC: According to the EC contract provisions, the RC shall ensure, on behalf of Contractors (SC), the consent to the publication of data produced during the implementation of the Project activities.

In particular the RC: a) shall review all planned publications ensuring the quality of

the content (journal publications, proceedings, technical notes);

b) shall identify the knowledge that could be subject to protection measures by decision of the SC.

A specific procedure for the submission and the approval of planned publications has been drafted by the MB.

KICK-OFF MEETINGS OUTPUTS

CB kick-off meeting(Orsay 3 Feb. 05) summary and recommendations

1. Annex1 fully compatible with the content of the proposal

2. Concern about the delay between project starting date ( Feb. 1st,o5) and date of EU funds availability (July 05); difficulties are anticipated by some contractors because lack of resources

3. Need to fix reference parameters of the various parts of the facility. A set of such parameters will be collected by the TC and discussed at the next CB meeting of July 8th, 05

4. Synergies with HIPPI and BENE already exist, HIPPI and EURISOL activities on proton linacs are fully complementary ; the impact of the project Linac4 on EURISOL short and long term strategy in terms of design solutions: pulsed versus CW machines and consequences on the high power target lifetime

Design Study


SC-kick-off meeting (Orsay 4th Feb. 05)summary and recommendations

1. The need of a standing IAP was deeply debated. The consensus was reached on the basis of a Panel mission focussed on technical and scientific matters.

2. Synergies with HIPPI, BENE, EURONS and EUROTRANS were discussed. It was recommended to cultivate all the possible contacts, exchange of information, collaboration in specific WP, invitation to meetings of common interest.

3. The impact of pulsed machines on target lifetime was discussed. The subject is of extreme importance in case of driver sharing among different users ( RIB, Beta beams, neutrino factories…) Quantitative exploration to which extent a RIB target could withstand high power pulsed beam operation is needed.

4. Investigating the use of the Beta beam rings to push the RIB energies well over 100 MeV*A for secondary fragmentation. Some reference parameters should be fixed for the next SC meeting.

5. Implementation of an electronic data management to facilitate the flow of information within and outside the EURISOL community ( EDMS-CERN type suggested)

Design Study


MB kick-off meeting (Orsay Feb. 4th, 05) Summary and actions

– EURISOL web-site: implemented in the next 3 months;

– Publications: written note on the policy to be followed complying with EC rules;

– Site options: all bodies are very sensitive to this matter. According to the work plan,the MB should produce a report on site options, in a period of 6 months, starting from month 24.

– It is suggested that a draft paper containing the guidelines to face the site options problem should be presented to the next SC meeting;

– VII FP: Is there room for a new application in the contest of ESFRI roadmap? This should be decided according to the NuPECC strategy.

CONCLUSIONS

1. Signature of the contract (April 05, Ganil /EC)

2. Access to the contract by participants ( June 05, Ganil- Participants)

3. Signature of the Consortium Agreement (April/May 05, Participants)

Tentative dates of the 2005 official

meetings

- April, 18th : MB meeting - July, 8th : CB Meeting - October MB meeting (to be fixed) - Nov, 28th –Dec 1st : EURISOL Ds week

During the week the following meetings will take place:( *)

a) Annual participants meeting b) CB meeting c) IAP meeting d) Steering Committee meeting f) MB meeting

( *)Aim of the EURISOL week:

Review and monitor the activities of the year, check the overall project planning, extend the discussion and the confrontation on the achieved results to all community, approve the general lines (technical, scientific and financial matters) of the yearly reports, discuss and approve the activities planning for the incoming year taking into account the suggestion given by the community.
