      SMNP Parallel Session - The Fishtank 13 N Crossover

      The SMNP working group will discuss the highest priority research for precise Standard Model or Beyond the Standard Model research that can be addressed via ultra cold neutrons and intense sources of radioisotopes at low energy. An initial list of topics for discussion is given as the agenda below. These discussions will be followed by the preparation of the draft white paper for this working group.
