APPLICATIONS RESEARCH

As it is known, in the managerial structure of HadronPhysics3, the Collaboration Committee has been suppressed by the Evaluation Panel. It is however of crucial importance both for the Acronym: ENSAR management and for the community to get an updated view of the progress of all the activities which constitute the project. Combination of Collaborative Project & Coordination and Support Actions Taking advantage of the submission date of the reports, a two-day meeting of the Spokespersons will FP7 Contract n° 262010 be held at LNF on 27th and 28th May 2013.

In the Agenda:

í presentation of the state-of-the-art of the activities at the mid-term of the project;

í news about Horizon 2020 with the road map to prepare a proposal in the field of hadron physics.

More information, including logistic aspects, will follow.

Best regards,

Carlo Guaraldo HadronPhysics3 Project Coordinator
