Dear colleague,

here is the September issue of our ANKE news with the following messages
for you:

During the last weeks we have prepared a proposal for the November
meeting of the PAC on the first measurements with ANKE. Main goal of
these studies will be the commissioning of ANKE and a calibration of the
side detectors. It is planned to measure pi-plus production in
proton-proton collisions and a total beam time of approx. 3 weeks in
the second half of 1997 will be applied for. A draft of the proposal
is available on our ANKE ftp server in the directory
/pub/ikp2/anke/proposal. You can either copy the complete proposal
(including the figures) as a postscript file
(first_measurements_draft.ps, 1.7 MB) or the text only
(first_measurements_draft.tex, 34 kB). Any suggestions, remarks or 
corrections are of course welcome. Since the proposals have to be sent
to the members of the PAC by October 1st, you should tell us your
comments not later than Sept. 24 in order to give me sufficient time
to make the changes in the text.   

In order to achieve a better coordination during the setup phase of
ANKE we would like to ask you to send all technical drawings of
equipment to be installed (e.g. supports of detectors, target
chambers,... ) to our engineer W.Borgs before construction. He will
make sure that everything fits into place and that no conflicts with
other equipment occur. Thanks for your cooperation. 

Finally, we would like to remind you that our collaboration meeting
will take place here in Juelich on November 13 and 14, 1996.

                       Best regards, Markus Buescher
