Workshop Goals

• Present details of the current FRIB design as proposed by MSU to DOE.
• Discuss the immediate scientific goals and how we can achieve them as rapidly as possible. This involves prioritization of resources and effort. Some projects may be achieved before FRIB is running, given suitable equipment development.
• Discuss the proposed capabilities and design of FRIB and evaluate if it matches the scientific needs. This also involves prioritization of resources and effort.
• Discuss and prioritize additional capabilities that are not in the current design.
• Discuss the development of the FRIB Users group and how they can most efficiently be involved in the path forward. A new charter will be needed, and a formal structure for interacting with FRIB management.

These issues ALL need community involvement, as there are no “right” answers. We need to hear your voices. We need your help in making these decisions. They have consequences. You will be asked to help set goals and priorities.
