    <p>Dear Latifa, dear All,<br>
    </p>
    <p>as FX already said, the matter has been discussed during the Run
      group K meeting last Friday. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Volker reported that the new machine schedule foresees the change
      of energy starting from November 29th instead of November 19th,
      with a loss of 10 days of run.</p>
    <p>See the attached slide.</p>
    <p>At present the run group K run is planned for 11 (solar) days at
      7.5 GeV and 8 (solar) days at 6.5 GeV.</p>
    <p>It has been discussed the option of requesting additional 7-10
      days during the spring data taking extension on March-April, after
      rung group B period.  This would require Hall-B asking for 3 or 4
      pass beam. The persons attending  the meeting agreed to submit the
      request at the Friday meeting with the Laboratory management.</p>
    <p>Now the question posed by the CCC is two-fold: <br>
    </p>
    <p>1. would the 2018 data be enough for run group K to provide a
      publication?</p>
    <p>2. what would be the impact of an additional week of data taking
      in spring 2019?</p>
    <p>I understand that while the former run schedule included run
      group K because the available beam energy is incompatible with all
      other run group requests, the additional 2019 spring week could be
      also used by run group A, for example. So the decision to run at
      different number of passes (6.4 GeV or 8.8 GeV) must be well
      motivated.</p>
    <p>Before answering I would appreciate collecting your suggestions
      or comments.</p>
    <p>All the best</p>
    <p>Annalisa</p>
    p.s. no time line has been posed in the request, but I assume the
    sooner the better...<br>

            <div>We had a discussion at last week's RG-K meeting, but it
              was only few participants, so I think this is why Annalisa
              is continuing a discussion here.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>During the meeting we discussed that getting PAC days
              peace-meal for a short experiment is detrimental and will
              affect systematical uncertainties. One simple argument
              however was that having data is better not having data at
              all. We agreed with the proposal of getting one week for
              RG-K and three weeks for RG-A. We did not decide on the
              number of passes we would request. </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>Personally I hope that RG-K will be fully scheduled in
              the future for the remainder of the PAC approved days,
              even if it means we have to wait a bit longer. Increased
              systematical uncertainties is contrary to the physics goal
              of our experiment.</div>

                    <pre>Dear Annalisa,
on Friday we had a CCC meeting to discuss the change in the accelerator schedule for 2018 and 2019. 
The discussion was specifically focussed on the 4 week extension that are being considered for the Spring 2019. 
The rational we have been following is to use this additional time to compensate for the losses that 
the different Run Groups will have for the delayed start of the machine after the summer shutdown 
and the other changes that are being done to the schedule. Among these, the extension of the 10.6 GeV 
running to after Thanksgiving and the consequent shortening of the low energy running at the end of 
this year are directly affecting Run Group. In this regard, what is being considered is to assign to 
Run Group K a week in the Spring 2019 after RG-B. To take a sound decision on this, 
we would like to have your feedback on the possibility for RG-K to have a publication from the 2018 run 
with the reduced time and on what would be the gain if another week of beam would be allocated in the Spring.
Best regards,
        Raffaella
