[Markiewicz, Thomas]

Dear MAP collaborator,

The 2012 Winter Collaboration meeting of the Muon Accelerator Program (MAP) will be hosted at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory from Sunday March 4 2012 to Thursday March 8 2012. All details can be found at the meeting web site:

https://www-conf.slac.stanford.edu/mapwinter2012/


The full 5 day program will cover the three main technical areas of MAP, the International Design Study for a Neutrino Factory, and Project X. Beginning at 3pm on Wednesday March 7 and continuing through Thursday March 8 the program focuses on the physics and detectors of the muon collider and its machine detector interface. The program committee has been working on the scientific agenda and the current version is linked to the web page. Conveners of all sessions are identified. Please contact one of them if you desire to give a presentation and are not yet on the agenda. 

The meeting will take place in the Kavli Auditorium (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday) and the Panofsky Auditorium (Wednesday). Maps of the SLAC campus with the meeting rooms indicated are linked to the site.

Advance registration for either the full 5 day meeting or the 1.5 day physics & detectors part of the meeting is required.

The social program consists of a reception and poster session on the evening of the first day and a group dinner on Wednesday March 7. Details are described on the relevant links. You can sign up for these events through the registration page. As the meeting begins Sunday, when the SLAC cafeteria is closed, there is also the option of ordering a lunch for that day. If you do plan to present a poster, please send an email to the conference organizer by replying to this email or by using one of the links provided on the web site.

A block of 30 rooms for the MAP meeting has been reserved at the Stanford Guest House, on the SLAC site. The block reservation expires on February 2 and is independent from the meeting registration. Details of how to reserve these rooms, as well as links to lists of off-site accommodations are provided. You are encouraged to book early to guarantee space.

We look forward to seeing you in March,

Tom Markiewicz
