35 Laser Heater Commissioning Schedule All laser-heater systems will be ready by Nov. 3, 2008, except the LH-undulator (magnet vendor was late) LH-undulator will be installed in Dec. or Jan. FEL begins commissioning in March (must have LH ready) Ideas for reasonably well thought out experiments are welcome laser heater commissioning There is not limitless time available. Pressures to establish FEL arise quickly after March 15, 2009.
