Subject: Parallel meeting on Detectors for the Muon Cooling Demonstration
    Experiment


            Dear Colleagues,

our next meeeting of the task force on detectors will take place
as anticipated on Friday, during the Workshop. WE should review 
the status of our studies and plan the final editing of our 
chapter of the proposal, due mid November.

I propose that Speakers that are members of the European task force 
report the basics of their design as reported to previous meeting (enough to
inform people in the audience that have who participated to those) 
and news and updates that they have since. Talks could be short & 
sharp, 15' at most. More, of course, if really needed, please let me know. 

D. Summers should take a little more time to present to us his 
fresh material on PID, upstream and downstream. 

Jean Michel Rey and Claude Petitjean, convenors of two of the other 
task forces, will be with us part time to illustrate the
areas of common interest and be ready to answer questions. 

I have not scheduled a talk of Patrick Janot (he will give one on
simulation on Thu morning) but he will be with us for the general
discussion.

All speakers should rise at the meeting (or before!) all the points 
they judge most worth of a collective discussion, both immediately or
at some later date,  after further work.

The agenda is proposed to be: 


          Fri October 26  9:00-12:30 Bdg 6-2-006(PS Auditorium)

All                     Discussion, organization of work (*)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(*)We have also to organize our report to the Plenary Session on Saturday.
   You have noticed that the in the Workshop agenda it is tentatively split
   at the moment in 4 parts. We should select some of us to give each one 
   of these subreports. A pool of potential speakers is listed, who  
   volunteers? 

1) Beam particle ID  (D. Summers, M. Mezzetto ....
2) Tracking (E. Mckigney, M. Apollonio, P. Gruber, ... 
3) particle ID (D. Summers, G. Santin, S. Tzamarias, .... 
4) Running in scenario for the cooling experiment (P. Gruber,
   M. Castellano,...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NB Pierre Jarron both a very busy morning, we may have to anticipate his
   talk.
