U.S. ATLAS HL-LHC Upgrade Level 2 and Deputies-NSF only Management Mailing List

[Gustaaf Brooijmans <gusbroo AT nevis.columbia.edu>]

Hi Mike,

I guess the aim is to remain at very high level.  A few minor comments:

-sl 5: how will the effect the base program?  Do you mean how ill this affect?

-sl 5: I would say “has not impacted us directly (yet?)” as apparently the cuts that have been sent only represent $250M of the $400M announced.  (But maybe that’s DOGE accounting…)

-sl 5: I would remove “but now we see…..”

-sl 6: the Feb CPR is out and we’re back at 0.89 => worth including?

-sl 6: do you mean the “near future”?  Obviously they will occur in the future…

Best,

Gustaaf

Hi All,

Attached are my slides for the JOG scheduled on Zoom on Monday 3/17 – assuming there is no shutdown. I have about 15 min to talk about the NSF scope of the Upgrade (which in the NSF guidance is 7.5 slides), so quite abbreviated. Comments/corrections are welcome.

Thanks, Mike
