   Friends,

We would like to congratulate everyone for hitting a

series of important sPHENIX milestones this week!

Thanks to large, dedicated efforts, that started in some 

cases years ago, this week we ramped the sPHENIX 

SC-Magnet  to 105% current, we rigged the last vestiges of 

the PHENIX Central Magnet out of 1008, we shipped the latest 

generation of calorimeter prototypes to FNAL and we had a very 

successful Cost and Schedule Review, organized by Bob 

Tribble and Berndt Mueller. Many long hours by many people

made these successful outcomes possible. A big Thank You! 

to all those involved - you did a great job!

Of course we're not done. In fact, we are just getting started. 

We hope and expect that the same expertise, dedication and 

incredible effort that was needed to make these major 

activities come out so well this week, will carry the 

sPHENIX project to a successful completion and great discoveries!

There is a lot of work ahead but we have a very strong team to 

get it done.

    

  All the best,
    

  Dave, Gunther, Ed and Glenn
