One further consequence is that the CLAS Collaboration planned for November is now at significant risk. Please do not submit a visit registration or arrange your travel until we have clarity on the situation. If JLab furloughs then JLab staff would not be able to participate even in a remote meeting. This is a difficult time for our JLab colleagues and we appreciate that these issues have repercussions for the entire JLab community including our collaboration. I will keep you updated with developments.

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.

Access to the site must be approved by the division. Thanks, Stepan From Bryan.McKinnon at glasgow.ac.uk Wed Oct 22 14:14:15 2025 From: Bryan.McKinnon at glasgow.ac.uk (Bryan McKinnon) Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 18:14:15 +0000 Subject: [Hallb] [EXTERNAL] CLAS Collaboration Alternative Communications - Action required Message-ID: Dear all There is a lot of information contained in this email so please read and take the recommended actions. You will all hopefully have seen the news today that JLab is expecting to continue to operate through mid-November. This is very welcome good news for all collaborators, lab staff in particular. We do however still need to be mindful regarding possible future shutdowns beyond this mid-November timeframe. With that in mind let me reconfirm that due to the remaining uncertainty and the need for clarity, as previously stated, the November CLAS meeting (18 - 21) remains online only with a purely physics focus (caveat being that flexibility will be preserved, particularly on the Friday, should we be in a position to have a couple of business presentations). It would also be prudent to ensure that we have appropriate communication channels available should the need arise to use them. Email Communications Given the current circumstances and in preparation for any potential loss of, or limited access, to JLab emails and mailing lists, could I please ask you to add your alternate email to the following spreadsheet. There are 5 tabs, CLAS collaboration as a back-up to clas_members, and one for each of the Working Groups to replace their respective mailing lists. Add as appropriate for your interests. Please note that when you enter your email address, other collaborators will be able to see it. I ask that everyone respects this and does not use the information to send unsolicited emails. These lists are intended for use only to communicate CLAS and WG business and threads will be initiated by the relevant CCC member if required. This spreadsheet is password protected, the usual CLAS password with the addition of ?_backup?, and is served via the Glasgow University Sharepoint which is fully compliant with data protection legislation. https://gla-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/bryan_mckinnon_glasgow_ac_uk/EdCCADmn8A1KmJBO6BCl_YoBYeo-sjl8mhoJgY6cCZ8x-w?e=NGMKFZ https://gla-my.sharepoint.com/:x:/g/personal/bryan_mckinnon_glasgow_ac_uk/EdCCADmn8A1KmJBO6BCl_YoBYeo-sjl8mhoJgY6cCZ8x-w?e=NGMKFZ? CLAS Collaboration Meeting Zoom Link Again being unable to guarantee the availability of JLab hosted Zoom, the CLAS Collaboration Meeting will be broadcast using my UofG Zoom coordinates. Please use this link since the password is embedded within. https://uofglasgow.zoom.us/my/bryan.mckinnon?pwd=L3pXcGlJeFBCRzU5RnZFcCtXK0plZz09 https://uofglasgow.zoom.us/my/bryan.mckinnon?pwd=L3pXcGlJeFBCRzU5RnZFcCtXK0plZz09? Join our Cloud HD Video Meeting uofglasgow.zoom.us CLAS Collaboration Meeting Agenda In order to provide a backup should JLab hosted Indico become unavailable, a plain text version of the meeting agenda will be provide via the same Sharepoint as above. Stay tuned for this as the agenda takes shape. Slack Channel As an additional means to communicate, I have set-up a new CLAS Collaboration Slack Workspace. Any communications sent via the compiled alternate email address lists will also be posted here. https://join.slack.com/t/clascollaboration/shared_invite/zt-3g43dkm2f-bINZVnvdVkgMf6oUcOfLjQ? https://join.slack.com/t/clascollaboration/shared_invite/zt-3g43dkm2f-bINZVnvdVkgMf6oUcOfLjQ Of course like you I hope using these alternatives will not be necessary. In the event they are required, given all of the above, we will be in a position to continue clear communications amongst the collaboration and the information will reach you in a timely manner. If you have any issues then please do not hesitate to contact me. The final item: please reach out to us if you want to present your work either during a ?WG session? or ?plenary? session: personal analysis updates (mature or in their infancy), looks at newly processed data, Run Group updates covering multiple physics studies etc etc. Regards Bryan ___________________________________ Dr. Bryan McKinnon Nuclear and Hadron Physics Research School of Physics and Astronomy University of Glasgow Glasgow G12 8QQ UK ___________________________________ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
