Minutes of the first meeting for the BESIII physics book
April 10, at 4:00pm
Attendees: K. Chao, Yifang Wang, Yuan-Ning Gao, Shan Jin, Hai-Bo Li, Jian-Ping Ma,
Ya-Jun Mao, Xiao-Yan Shen, Zhi-Zhong Xing and Bing-Song Zou
Minutes taken by Haibo Li
The meeing is chaired by Yifang Wang.
Following issues are discussed:
(1)
(2)
(3)
The structure of the book are adjusted. Conveners for each part and each chapter are
determined, as listed below.
Next meeting will be held on May 10 at 2:00 pm, in RM#B415 of IHEP. All writers should
attend the meeting. Conveners of each Part and/or Chapter should report the outline of their
respective part/chapter. It would be great if a draft is written and be distributed for
discussion in the meeting.
Conveners of each Part should have their regular meetings. Detailed plans for each part
should be discussed in their meetings.
