4. MATS/LASPEC New Experimental Area (MSV)
Stopped beams will be extracted and transported vertically to the MATS/LASPEC experimental area in the building above the tunnel/R3B cave
Inefficient, permanent re-configuration
1 floor only: reduced set-up
Additional costs not covered
Exp. Station 2
(final focus HEB,
Stopping Cell)
NUSTAR Week JG

5. HISPEC/DESPEC New Experimental Area (MSV)
Exp. Station 1
(final focus LEB)
Size:  FRS/S4
Insufficient flight path for LYCCA
No space for spectrometer/buncher
Limited neutron det. E resolution
NUSTAR Week JG

6. How to proceed? LEB Ring Sub-Projects
1. Parallel planning to get costs and not to loose time
Agreed by FAIR, requires 68 k€ from collaborators
2. Organize extra funds to ask for building permit and start construction
Extra funds (estim. 1.5 M€) from external sources and/or from
experiments to be raised within 1.5 years
Ring Sub-Projects
1. Prepare a realization plan
Continue R&D for TDRs, be ready if new funds come in
2. Pursue an attractive experiment programme at the ESR
To keep the collaboration together
3. Realize essential parts of the instrumentation
To be employed in other NUSTAR sub-projects
NUSTAR Week JG

7. Where are we?
Funding for parallel planning will be complete by end of October
First meeting with architects took place in early October
Updated total cost for LEB cave from architecs: M€ in 2011 prices
Net costs by deducting extra MSV costs for LEB experiments and potential savings to be evaluated by the end of the year
Time plan for realization and required money flow expected by end of November
Strategy for the realization to be agreed on by first quarter 2012
Approaching FAIR Council in second quarter 2012
