Indian Institutions and Fermilab Collaboration Meeting

US/Central
Description
Overall Planning and Goals
The discussions on Oct 27th and 28th will be focused on technical overview, questions, resources etc. Oct 29th and 30th will be devoted to detailed technical planning, integrated schedule, milestones, needed reviews, agreement on detailed deliverables and a schedule of future face to face interaction.
In general we need to:
• Establish good one on one contact. Make sure there is time to sit and discuss the project and the functional requirements.
• Agree on how communications (at the one on one level) will occur.
• Understand the capabilities as well as any constraints of the groups involved.
• Make sure that we understand - for each specific project/deliverable, what the risks and technical challenges are and where one can look for examples of similar work done by other projects.
• Discuss the criteria under which any new designs would be evaluated. This might vary a little depending upon the specific deliverable.
• Talk about the schedule and what needs to happen by when. If the schedule is not correct, suggest changes.
• Develop a list of questions that need to be answered in order to make progress on each deliverable.
• If there is some study or analysis that can be done now (while we prepare the Functional Requirement Specification) we could agree to start this work immediately.
In the end, our Indian colleagues need to feel connected into this work and Fermilab, and ready to take ownership for the success of the Indian deliverables for which they are responsible. This work should also advance the Indian HIPA project.
Oct 29-30 at RRCAT: (Jim Kerby will lead the Fermilab Group, Harry Carter, Tom Peterson and Camille Ginsburg) (Minimum expected lead people from Indian Institutions: Avinash, Prashant, Pradeep, Satish, Jayanta, Som, Prakash. They should invite others to the discussion)
These two days will be devoted to the detailed Design, Engineering, Resource, and Scheduled discussions of Cavity and Cryomodule and SRF Infrastructure program under the collaboration. The emphasis will be on the Supplement 1 deliverables. This will be held at RRCAT Oct 29th -30th. We would like all the Indian colleagues involved in this aspects of collaboration to remain or join the meeting at RRCAT. Four lead scientists and engineering staff with focus in these areas will remain at RRCAT for these one on one discussion. The discussion will focus on Supplement 1 deliverable and interest areas of Indian laboratories and industrial strength that can contribute towards future programs.

These two days will be devoted to the detailed Design, Engineering, Resource, and Scheduled discussions of Cryomodule Test Stand, Cryogenics, RF Power, RF Coupler, Instrumentation and Controls program under the collaboration. The emphasis will be on development of the addendum MOU V for the non-SRF program and deliverables. This will be held at BARC Oct 29th -30th. We would like all the Indian colleagues involved in this aspects of collaboration to join the meeting at BARC. Four lead scientists and engineering staff with focus in these areas will be at BARC for these one on one discussion. The discussion will focus on Supplement 1 deliverable, development of future collaboration including interest areas of Indian laboratories and industrial strength that can contribute towards future programs.
