Dear colleague,

as you might already know, there will be a review on March 6 about the
detectors and targets which will be used at ANKE. The reviewers -
Profs. E.Grosse (GSI, Darmstadt), U.Lynen (GSI, Darmstadt), K.Rith 
(University Erlangen), R.Santo (University Muenster), E.Steffens
(University Erlangen) - will meet here in the IKP and we will prepare
a few written reports as well as oral presentations. In order to keep 
you informed about all matters related to this review I have collected
some files for you on our ANKE ftp server. You can find these files in
the directory /pub/ikp2/anke/review_96 (see also ANKE NEWS #1 for the
logon procedure). Some of the files are in Word-For-Windows rtf
format. The list of talks (and written contributions) which will be
prepared as well as the list of speakers (authors) can be found in the
file 'agenda'. The written contributions must be send to the reviewers
on Febr.14. As soon as they are ready I will also store them on our
ANKE server.
 
R.Koch has estimated the luminosity which can be expected at TPA with
a Carbon-foil target. It turned out that our 'standard' value for the
effective Luminosity of L = 4 x 10^32 cm^-2 s^-1 is still correct. 
Soon, there will be a short text describing the calculation on our
ANKE server. You can find it under:
'/pub/ikp2/anke/memos/sim_050296_1.ps'. 

R.Schleichert has finished the design of the constant-fraction
discriminators and ordered the components. We want to have the
discriminators ready (including tests) on Dec. 1. We will build 21
modules which corresponds to 336 channels. 154 channels are foreseen
for the side telescopes, 24 for the Gatchina wall, 34 for the forward
detectors and 35 for the backward counters. The K- detectors have not
been considered yet but it should be possible to cover them with the
spare channels which will not be needed for the other counters. 


                       Best regards, Markus Buescher
