Fourteenth Meeting of the NSTX PAC
January 21 - January 22,
2003
CHARGE:
|
|
In preparation for the DOE review in June 2003, the NSTX 5-year plan community feedback forum was held on December 12-13, 2002, where the NSTX Team presented the draft research plan to a group of experts for comments and improvements. The results of the forum have been utilized to strengthen the scientific and technical elements of the plan in preparation for the PAC-14 meeting. I therefore ask the PAC to advise me on the following questions:
1) Do the key elements of the draft NSTX 5-year plan adequately address the scientific and technical goals, including the FY2004-2005 portion, which will be part of the FY-2004 NSTX FWP to be submitted to DOE in March 2003? A draft of the plan, updated since this forum, will be available for information at: http://nstx.pppl.gov/DragNDrop/5Yr_Plan_Feedback_Forum/Draft_5Yr_Plan/.
In preparation for the following 5-years, we need to take advantage of the FY 2003 run. Consistent with the recent financial guidance from DOE, the planned run time has been reduced pending a resolution of this year's budget by Congress.
2) Does the FY-2003 research plan with reduced run weeks address the goals in support of the 5-year plan? |
