• The major milestones for 2009 were discussed and the following where identified:
  • Complete the conceptual design of the Injection process and Painting schemes by July 2009.
  • Build a BS magnet prototype in order to measure multipoles and influence of vacuum chamber.
  • Complete conceptual design of stripping unit and built prototype foil changer.
• In order to study the influence of the proposed inconel vacuum chamber of the BS magnets, JB suggested to perform magnet tests with PS42 bumper magnets. Two identical magnets exist, one with and one without vacuum chamber.
