[Brahms-l] Fw: There is a Santa Claus - RHIC run in 06

Dear Collaborators,

I have just received via Phil Pile the following message from Derek Lowenstein. Although the
details are not specified this indicates there will be a pp run at RHIC during 2006. Until we here from
the laboratory and Sam Aransons it is unclear what the run plan will be and whether there will ba a 62 Gev run included in this.
In any case it is good news for the RHIC program.

best regards and seasons greetings.

Flemming
