• Note: Decision on Baking vessel will revise the present Draft schedule
• First Week of research focus is in pre-Li experiments– Obtain reliable plasmas in NSTX (2 days) and conduct piggy back activities
• Test the Supersonic gas injector• Get all diagnostics working• Test high-k scattering and RWM systems
• Second week devoted to evaluating Li capability and to develop suitable plasma targets for other experiments
• Third week will develop tools needed for RWM system and high-k scattering diagnostic
– Supporting experiments in these areas would be conducted
• Then we will evaluate Li capability and assess impact on NSTX Run
• Early next week, the updated schedule will be posted on the NSTX web page
