Notes - sda meeting - Monday March 21, 2005

People: Vaia, Tim, Aimin, Jean, Elliott, Paul

1. tables
    a) Mini-efficiency table and supertable now agree.
       Stores back to 3610(?) have been rebuilt
    b) 12 new columns of RR information will be added
       to the supertable
    c) We will more to tim's luminosity tables as soon as he
       has reproduced Suzanne's functionality for pre-built and
       on-demand tables.
    d) Jean will send draft specs for bunch by bunch intensity
       and emittance AIDA ituples.

2. OSDAPhysics

    a) Elliott will change the head to use the same lattice
       functions as Ready4Alpha. Vaia and he will then check
       that the head agrees with the supertable for emittances.
    b) Once a) is done, the head will be declared "Ready4Alpha
       and become the production version.
       Mail will be sent to the SDA email list and an entry
       made in the SDA elog.  This will happen ASAP.
    c) Vaia, Elliott will continue to check that the new
       production version and the frozen version agree.  Once they
       do, the frozen version goes away and the Supertable
       is built from the production(Ready4Alpha) version.
       Changes to OSDAPhysics will be discouraged, as effort
       goes into StorePhysics.

3. OSDA - Suzanne and Tim have made the changes to allow
       requests for individual sets and array elements in
       any combination. This will most likely be made
       Ready4Alpha and announced by email and in the
       SDA elog tomorrow by Suzanne.

4. StorePhysics
       a) Tim will make the database tables this afternoon.
       b) Elliott continues work. Some things agree
       and some don't.

5. Functors - Tim has a symbolic differentiator in ECOOL
       functor extensions.  This sounds really neat, but not
       needed at this time in SDA code.

6. Aimin
       a) Made lifetime files for Vladimir
       b) files sent to CDF - waiting for feedback
       c) Working on Tanaji's files - she expects to
          finish today or tomorrow.
       d) Once c) is done she comes back to the
          150 Gev lifetime work.  The goal is to present
          this at the Tev meeting Friday and to Spence this
          week as well.

7. Norm Gelfand's files - Tim gave him a new set.
