Subject: Minutes for Non-oscillation physics group for the Proton driver study -- Monday, June 4th


Hi Working group,
Here are minutes from today's meeting:

We began by discussing the talks to be given at the Proton Driver Workshop
at FNAL this week on June 6th-7th.  We have two talks scheduled with title
and speakers:

There's more to neutrinos than oscillations:
	Nu's from the Booster -- Rex Tayloe
	Nu's from the Main Injector -- Paul Reimer (?)

The Proton Driver Study document has a chapter devoted to us.  Thanks to
Chuck and Rex who have completed and turned in their section.  The
document is due on Thursday, so allowing time for Jorge and I to put
it all together and for the group to read it one last time, we need to 
have all the sections in hand by Tuesday evening.  

**So please send me your sections by Tuesday evening -- that's tomorrow!**

Discussion followed about our agenda and schedules for Snowmass.  It looks
like the second week will be the best time for our group to overlap there
-- this is the week beginning on July 10th. I will look into the
availability of videoconferencing facilites there.

What do we want to accomplish at Snowmass?  

We have a good start on the theoretical part of non-osc. neu physics, we
need to expand the detector studies and systematic studies.  There will be
time and facilites to do detector studies at Snowmass, so this can be
accomplished.  

Paul suggested we have a joint session with the fixed target working group
since non-oscillation nu physics has been specifically excluded from their
charge but is of interest to them.

The work from this group can be turned into a proposal for a post MINOS,
NUMI beamline experiment.  At Snowmass, a timescale and agenda can be
layed out toward this effort for a proposal to possibly be submitted in
the fall.

At the end of Snowmass, we will want to hand HEPAP a report on our working
group's findings, not only for physics with the benefit of a proton
driver, but in general what's important and what can be accomplished.  

Our next and last meeting before Snowmass will be held on Wednesday, June
20th at 9am.  Please email me any objections to this date ASAP.

Thanks! Bonnie
