Finding documentation

  • The DocDB is used primarily to store documents. It has been used to organize agendas and materials for meetings and reviews, but LBNE is using other tools for these activities moving forward. Documents in DocDB are searchable via several attributes, e.g., name, number, author, topic and event. A variety of access permissions are in use.
    • The LBNE-wide login ID is lbne. To get the password, please email lbne-communication@fnal.gov.
    • Access via digital certificate (DOEGrids or Fermilab KCA) is also available (certificate access will change in 2013; stay tuned).

Online collaborative workspaces

Computing

Eileen Berman is the LBNE Project Computing Coordinator. She can help with questions about the software tools that LBNE uses. Send questions to lbne-communication@fnal.gov.

Information about scientific computing resources and how to get accounts on the Fermilab and Brookhaven clusters for LBNE can be found on the wiki at Computing page.

Talks

All LBNE talks given should be cleared through the Speaker's Committee, currently chaired by Jim Napolitano, napolj@rpi.edu. A list of LBNE conference talks is maintained by Andy Blake.

Email lists

Please send general questions to: lbne-communication@fnal.gov

The LBNE collaboration email lists are listed and described at LBNE mailing lists. Follow the instructions to join lists as appropriate. The primary collaboration list, "lbne-collab" is for collaboration-wide information regarding meetings, upcoming milestones and so on. Please do not use it for things like job notices.

Please inform Maury when:
  • your email address changes
  • new members from your institution start working on LBNE

Collaboration meetings

LBNE typically holds two collaboration meetings per year. Upcoming collaboration meetings will be listed on lbne.fnal.gov.

Institutional Board (IB)

One member from each collaborating institution should be designated as the IB representative. Please tell Maury and the IB chairman (currently Marvin Marshak) who it is.

Collaboration member lists

These can be found in the document database, DocDB number 270. It is the job of the Deputy Spokesperson to keep this up-to-date. There are currently five documents there.
  • A list of collaboration members and a phone list. Each member must be verified by the Institutional Board Representative from his or her institution.
  • A Powerpoint slide of the collaboration list
  • A contact list; this list includes names of people who are associated with the Collaboration or Project but may not be collaboration members, e.g., administrative staff.
  • LaTex and PDF versions of the author list

Collaboration by-laws

These can be found in the document repository, DocDB number 137. (password required)

Long-Baseline Neutrino Newsletter

Maury will add you to the long-baseline newsletter email list when you join LBNE, but you can ask to be removed if you wish.

Job notices

Job notices should be submitted for posting on the Neutrino Jobs page. A jobs listing will be sent to the LBNE collaboration (and others) every few weeks.
