Dear Collaborator, Let me give you an update on the little amount of work that has taken places for the beam use proposal. The deadline for submission is eob on Monday August 12. with the PAC meeting on August 26 This means in fact that the I will be at BNL for this and can edit a final version over the weekend. Nothing has in fact been written - but I have gathered some of the thoughts and comments in set of slides - (I also envision these can be used for the actual presentation with proper added material) The first couple is the generic Brahms program as set forth in CDR and at previous PAC meetings. The next sets show what could be the request for this and subsequent years and the physics rationale behind it.With the expected running of RHIC in 24 beamsetup + physics the program can accomodate as I outlined at the collaboration meeting at most 2 different beam species. With this in mind the propose program is AuAu + dAu in run-3 and Si-SI+dAu in run-4 (pending on additional detectors want might also request Au-Au in the second year). Note there is no demand to bring forth the run-4 plans, but it looks like a good idea. The slides can be found either as ppt or pdf file at http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~videbaek/BrahmsRun-3.pdf http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~videbaek/BrahmsRun-3.ppt I know many are very busy with the important analysis and prepartions for QM talks, but it would be good to get comments (references, count-rates estimates, prioritisation for the goals, settings) such the outline of this document can proceed in the next couple of weeks. With such basic material in hand I do not envision the actual writting possibly 4-5 pages should be that difficult. best regards Flemming ---------------------------------------------------- Flemming Videbaek Physics Department Brookhaven National Laboratory tlf: 631-344-4106 fax 631-344-1334 e-mail: videbaek@bnl.gov
