Description


This workshop is a unique opportunity for physicists and engineers, working on conventional neutrino beams, to meet together, and discuss intensively their equipment in operating and planned experiments. Traditionally, this workshop focuses closely on the actual physical devices that compose neutrino beam facilities, with an emphasis on operating experiments and those at advanced phases of construction or planning. This will be the 9th instance of the workshop since the first in KEK in 1999; it has since rotated between the regions of Asia, Europe, and the United States.

        Greek Island Restaurant - Chicago

        200 South Halsted St., Chicago, IL. 60661
        http://www.greekislands.net/
        Wednesday evening we will have a group dinner at the Greek Islands restaurant in Chicago -
        http://www.greekislands.net
        200 SOUTH HALSTED St., CHICAGO, IL. 60661.
        The reservation will be made for 7 pm - please sign-up at registration to be included in the reservation.
        The restaurant is located in the Greektown neighborhood of Chicago, just west of downtown.  We have not organized transportation.
        Please carpool as necessary and let us know if you need a ride - we can help you find a driver.
        Driving time without traffic is about an hour, anticipate an extra 15-30 minutes in the early evening rush.  Public transportation from the suburbs is possible using the Metra commuter train, but will likely be impractical for this trip.
        Please recall that gratuity (tipping) is customary in the US for food and drink at a rate of 15-20%.  Greater fractions will llikely not be rejected.
