Dear top quark friends,

This is just a reminder that the first Snowmass top quark meeting will take place tomorrow, Wednesday, January 30 at 9 am. US EST. The meeting agenda is at

https://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=231689

** In particular, we would like to repeat that

Subject: First top quark group meeting for Snowmass 2013

Dear top quark friends,

We will have the first meeting of the top quark group (of the energy frontier) in preparation for Snowmass 2013 on Wednesday, January 30, starting at 9 am US Eastern time and continuing for most of the day. The January 30 meeting agenda can be found at

https://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=231689

The meeting will be a video-conference only, using Vidyo.

This first meeting will be dedicated to presentations of summaries of top quark topics, intended to give the current state of the top quark field. These summaries will be the basis of our studies toward snowmass, and at the meeting we will have time for discussion and to go over concrete projects that people can start on. The summaries are linked from the top snowmass twiki page at

http://www.snowmass2013.org/tiki-index.php?page=Fully+Understanding+the+Top+Quark

If you are interested in contributing to the Snowmass top quark group effort but have not yet told us, it is not too late! Just send an email to one of the snowmass top group conveners (cc'ed here)
and attend the meeting on January 30.

You can also sign up for our mailing list by sending an email to
