1. General Update Jian-ping Chen, JLab SoLID Collaboration Meeting
January 12-13, 2016

2. Overview Progress Since Last Meeting (Sept)
Long Rang Plan report coming out in October
SoLID fare very well: highlighted multi-places
DOE visit/discussions (Nov)
Successful: Paul’s presentation
Timeline, Pre-R&D plan
Discussions/iterations
Address Recommendations: Science
SIDIS, PVDIS, J/y, GPDs
Progress in subsystems
Magnet: JLab plan (Whit)
Detectors: ECal, TOF, …
DAQ/Electronics
Software frame/Tracking
Simulations: background due to hadron production
Collaborations
China side, US side, Europe

3. LRP, DOE visit, timeline and pre-R&D plan
LRP: Two budget scenarios: SoLID will happen (MIE)
Effort towards SoLID encouraged by DOE, start pre-R&D
Timeline
End 2016: Address recommendations related to science review
Spring 2017: Update pCDR -> Draft MIE
Summer 2017: Science Review
Feb 2018: Budget briefing to have SoLID in
2017/2018: CD0
FY2020: CD3, start full project
Pre-R&D: before CD0.
1st year prepare for science review: simulations, magnet, DAQ
2nd year prepare for MIE: detectors, simulations
Effort continues/increases after CD0 (PED: Project Engineering and Design)
A document on pre-R&D plan is in preparation.

4. Recommendations Related to Science
SIDIS
Make strong science case: workshops (Stony Brook, ECT, INT)
Comparison with CLAS12/SBS
Study systematics
Tracking
Kaon identification (TOF)
PVDIS
Background study
Q2/performance/systematcis
J/y
Bin Migration
Background
Developing GPD program
DDVCS
Others

5. Progress in Sub-Systems (ECal)
The first prototype module was assembled at Shandong U. (China). It was took out from the assemble platform on 1/7/2016

6. Collaboration and Outside Funding
China:
- Tsinghua U (Yi Wang) joined Ecal effort
- J.P. visited Central China Normal University in Octorber
seminar on SoLID and discussed possible collaboration
experience in Alice ECal (Shyshlak) and other detectors/electronics
- Haiyan organized a meeting in Dec with SoLID-China collaborators.
Discussed how to proceed with funding applications.
- End of Dec., GEM R&D funding application by Lanzhou/USTC/CIAE
submitted to MOST (Minster Of Science and Technology)
- Plan to re-submit ECal R&D proposal (IMP/Shandong/Huangshan) to NSFC
US and Europe
- J.P. visited LBNL in Dec., seminar on SoLID, discussed possible collaboration
- J.P. will visit Rice U. in Feb., seminar on SoLID
- Daniel Watts (Edinburgh) requested to be SoLID collaboration member
- Fatitha Benmokhtar (Duquesne University) interested in SoLID
- Original SoLID postdocs and students
Need a Collaboration Charter / By-laws.
