[clas_members] [EXTERNAL] Update regarding the CLAS November meeting

[Bryan McKinnon]

Dear collaborators

Further to the email I sent on Wednesday regarding the risk to the November CLAS meeting, the CCC met today to discuss.

After giving full consideration to the situation and the options, we concluded that given the continued uncertainty surrounding the ability for JLab to host, the need to provide each of you clarity and certainty, and a wish to continue to showcase our work, the meeting will be transitioned to online only.

Not meeting in person to discuss our work and business is of course very disappointing, but we hope to make the best of the remote meeting. To that end, the meeting dates will remain the same 18 - 21 November but the agenda will be focussed purely on our physics. Each day will be shorter in length and we will construct a schedule which will respect the timezones of the majority of our institutes. More details to follow as we reshape and plan the new agenda.

If you wish to present an update of your analysis, you should reach out to your Working Group chair as soon as possible. Within those calls we continue to encourage early stage analyses by students and post-docs to request a presentation slot as well as analyses which are more mature. 

This was not the news I hoped to be delivering, but now at least with the certainty of this decision we can look forward to meeting and the presentations of the great physics outputs we produce.

Regards
Bryan, on behalf of the CCC
