Papers: - a draft of the paper prepared by EDITORIAL team (P. Goslawski et al.) for submission to Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams - 'High precision beam momentum determination in a synchrotron using a spin resonance method' - is available from our home page. --> Please have a look at the paper, and give comments and suggestions for possible changes to improve it even further, checking especially the areas of your special expertise. --> Deadline for replies regarding the above paper is 10 of August 2009. --> Please, send your comments etc., to the editorial team and to me. After the deadline, the ET will take the responsibility to consider all input, prepare the final paper (including the author list) and then give a brief chance for further comments before submission. - the PRC paper: - 'Precision study of the dp->He3 eta reaction for excess energies between 20 and 60 MeV' (T. Rausmann et al.) - has been published in PRC 80, 017001 (2009). CONGRATULATIONS ! - the EPJA paper: - 'Measurement of the isospin-filtering dd->He4 K+K- reaction at Q=39 MeV' (X. Yuan et al.) - has been accepted ! CONGRATULATIONS ! - there is a draft in preparation on the deuteron breakup pd->(pp)n study at GeV energies (Dubna group). We intend to inform about the first DRAFT of the above mentioned paper, by the next ANKE news. 2. PAC#37 (7/8 September): according to the internal ANKE discussions we decided to submit 3 documents: - updated version of ANKE Proposal/BR #195 - "Investigation of FSI in the pd->He3 K+K-/H3 K+K_bar reaction near threshold" - for approval and beam time request for the coming beamtime period (2 weeks, Resp. for submission A.Dzyuba); - new Proposal/BR on the measurement of the cross sections and analysing powers for pp elastic reaction using STT system and Schottky technique (2 weeks, Resp. for submission D.Chiladze); - new Proposal/BR for commissioning of the polarized deuterium cell-type target at ANKE using nuclear reactions (2 weeks, Resp. for submission K.Grigoryev). All versions (NOT yet final) of the documents are available via our home page. Please, keep in mind that the deadline for submission of the documents is July 24-th, 2009. 3. BT preparation (Oct/Nov 2009): there is a maintenance week (calendar week 41) scheduled for COSY activity, in order to exchange the ANKE cluster traget with PIT. To coordinate all necessary hardware work, ANKE technical coordinator, Sergey Mikirtichiants should be informed about the necessary preparatory work for the needed hardware exchange/instalation and according to this request, he will prepare the sequence+time plan and keep informed all the parties involved. Best regards, Andro Kacharava p.s. Please, note that from July 22 up to August 15, I am on vacation in Georgia.
