SUBJECT . MEETING WITH DR. KLXCEWM TO DISCUSS ACCELERATOR SCHEDULES FOR THE NEXT YEAR On the morning of September 8 the fol loving met in H. Agnev's office to discuss our p lass for operating U Y PF during the next year. The schedule for increasing LAMPF current, wbich WAS prepared some ntho ago at the behest of ERDA, was tat led and discussed. The salient Weare t h a t we achieved 100 PA somewhat ahead of schedule. beam intensity to the 300 UA level.Figure1 shows to run at 100 pA for about one year while w e make ready try very hard to mint ah.Naturally we shall on tin ue to try to be a tour schedule. But things can also go the orhar Although 100 UA proton beam is rather low for treating the large lurnesl Dr. Kligerman is anxious t o address, this beam level may be of beam l i n e tuning now under way is reasonably A more serious problem involves the operating schedule. Budgetary shutdown December 13 t o January 30, 1977 and the entire month of September 1977. our best estimates of how development will proceed, and the necessity to prepare for operation at higher beam intensities, make the schedule of Fig. 2 the best w e can now foresee from the standpoint of Dr. Kligerman'e wishes. Dr. Kligerman would really like seven weeks of more or less contin u o us running. Rosen suggested that this might be accomplished by Introducing several x-ray fractions between tuo 25-day running periods on the pion channel. Otherwise the treatment plan could not encompass more than 22 fractions,ifthe machine operated perfectly. In addition our manpower levels, An important point which caused some confusion is the fact that the schedule of operations is strongly coupled to the potential for achieving higher beams one year from now. patterned to optimize the probability for achieving our next intensity The present operations schedule is milestone, which is so cc: List of attendees necessary for t h e biomedical program. with enclosures as stated.
