Subject: RE: H2 muon test schedule (fwd)

Hi Yuri,
  I was just wondering when there would be some news on the test beam schedule,
when your email came.

  I guess my main comment is that I think that one of the big advantages of the 
H2 test beam compared to the GIF (especially since we don't plan to use the 
magnet) is that H2 offers a silicon telescope. So:
  1. when we request time, we should say clearly that we want the telescope to 
be working during our assigned time, and
  2. we should consider putting P2 somewhere other than in the usual P0 place
if it means the telescope can be brought closer. With P0, the telescope was
upstream of the magnet, and the chamber was downstream, and the separation was
about 5 meters. If we could make that 50 cm, we could have much better
precision at the chamber from the telescope data (say 20 um instead of 100 um),
which would be really nice!
  Of course, if there is someone taking data with a chamber in the magnet, they 
may not want us to move the telescope downstream of the magnet (and the SiBT 
also is easier to analyze when the magnet is off), so this may be a constraint 
on the scheduling.
  I also heard a rumour that there might be a second telescope this year in the 
downstream muon zone. Could we consider running there? 

  I guess you have to get more details from Gyorgy (or I can try to, if you
wish); I just wanted to raise the issue!
