Dear Colleagues,
In this message, I present a preliminary schedule for the
Brookhaven Energy Frontier meeting. Chip and I would very
much appreciate it if the working group conveners would
respond to this as soon as possible so that Sally Dawson
can post a schedule on the meeting web page.
I hope that you will see that the plan below has a certain
logic. Chip and I have tried to address all of your requests.
However, you will see that we overestimated the time available
and that the program is very heavily scheduled. If you would
like more time open, you can recommend eliminating some of the
sessions you asked for.
The Higgs and New Physics groups are scheduled up for all sessions, so we
set aside rooms where they can go and discuss during the lunch hour. If the
other groups would like a specific room set aside for discussions at any free
time, they should let me know. There is also time for the groups QCD, EW, Top,
and Flavor to schedule additional topical sessions if they wish.
Thank you very much!
Michael
===========================================================
As background: throughout W Th F, we will have the following rooms available:
In Berkner, where the cafeteria is: (room / capacity)
Auditorium 476
Room A 50
Room B 65
Room C 23
Room D 17
In the Physics Department
Auditorium 140
Lobby (space to hang out, discuss, work) 400
It is about a 10 minute walk between Berkner and the Physics Department.
I am trying to schedule the formal program in Berkner as much as possible.
Working groups that would like to meet privately or take a retreat can go
to the Physics department. Coffee will be available in both places.
Here is the proposed schedule:
