== Minutes and Action Items ==
* Everyone introduced themselves.
 
*: Igor and and Eugene briefly presented the problem of what needs to be done for the kaon production target (KPT).
 
* Igor went through his slides to describe the KPT conceptual design.
 
* Eugene had a few questions and comments.
 
*# It would be helpful to have a single document, relatively brief, showing all the relevant for designers KPT dimensions.
 
*#: It was agreed that Tim, Stephanie and Keith will draw their own sketch based on Igor's presentations, and will request the missing numbers.
 
*# Would it be helpful to have a beam pipe (steel) before the tungsten plug?
 
*#: This has not been considered yet.
 
*# How do we hold the beryllium target in front of the tungsten plug?
 
*#* Attaching it to the plug means that it will get heated by the plug.
 
*#* One may consider a small gap between the target and W-plug and relay on the air convection.
 
*#* Either way, one needs to estimate the temperature of the beryllium. 
 
*#* Igor would like to know what options there are for which one may perform simulations.
 
*# Eugene would like the KLF collaboration to produce a heat depositions profile versus z for the lead, beryllium and the tungsten plug.
 
*#* Moskov agreed.
 
*#* Currently Igor's program does not do that. 
 
* Hovanes asked Tim if it would be easier to have a rectangular design for the KPT shielding rather than a barrel shape.
 
*: Eugene thinks it can be some kind of combination to simplify the mechanical design and to reduce the amount of lead used.
 
*: Tim has been thinking about it, but so far has no preference.
 
* We agreed to meet every two weeks at the same time, until further notice.
 
 
=== Action Items ===
 
# Go over the existing sketch and identify missing dimensions (designers and Igor).
 
# Determine the heat deposition profile (KLF).
 
# Options for holding the Be target in place. (designers)
 
# Shape of the KPT shielding: barrel vs rectangular. (designers)
