Mucool meeting minutes
             1:30PM CDT  Friday, 30 July

 0. Steve Geer started the meeting with overview comments on muTAC.
The review was overall positive; endorsing component development and
construction,
including 15 T Solenoid, Li lens, rf cavity R&D, instrumentation, but not
recommending
high-power source development and beamline preparation.
             
 1.  SFOFO Update                  Bob Palmer
	R. Palmer presented his overview of his recent superFOFO cooling
simulations;
cools from 9000mm-mrad to 3000 in 75 m with 15 MV/m rf, and factor of ~2
longitudinal
dilution; concern was expressed at the gradients used.

 2. MUCOOL Simulation Priorities
	various interpretations of simulation priorities were discussed.  Rick
Fernow
listed ssensitivity studies, 3T super fofo, correlator, lattice + cooling,
spacecharge
emittance exchange, scattering devinition and instrumentation simulation. Paul
Lebrun
was interested in sensitivity fofo/asol comparisons , correlation, Li lens,
emittance exchange
MuCool support. Bob Palmer was interested in space charge, which will notbe
needed for the 
neutrino source or for most of collider cooling. Emittance exchange is a very
important
priority, since it is essential in all stages of the collider cooling, will
probably be
needed for the neutrino source, and has not yet been satisfactirily developed.  
The correlator studies need a more focussed study, where the correlation needed
and 
desired are clearly defined, and the evolution of correlation through the
cooling channel is 
clearly described. Cooling systems which do not require precisely tuned
precorrelations
are strongly preferred; systems which can match to correlations generated
upstream 
should be used.

 3.  Low power cavity status & plans
John Corlett reported on rf cavity R&D, including plans for power test with
Aluminum insert;
including temperature, Q change studies	

 4. Booster beam considerations	   Roland noted that the bunch structure in the
booster
can be matched to the cooling bunch structure.
