====== Conclusions and Observations from the ET Design Study Workshop ====== ===== Suggestions for discussion in plenum ===== * Required software tools for further modelling * GWINC? * Logbook? * Should investigate single L? * Should investigate single broadband 120K design? (simpler , realistic on shorter times, while still good LF frequency potnetial). How much time and money can be saved if we go for single 120K detector. * Would is needed to get onto the ESFRI roadmap? technical design? Budget? Sensitivity? decision xylophone vs single detector? * Step 1) consolidate 120K design. 2) Form body (who? how? need people who understand international/european funding landscape) to decide key aspects (triangle vs L, surface vs underground). 3) People know what to design for and can start working. * Splitting of infrastructure and detector. Splitting of initial detector and facility limit. * Probably want to select wavelength for ET design early, as it has influences a lot of follow-on decisions, both design trade-offs but also investment decisions for R+D and prototypes {{:et_update_2017:et_and_etpf_in_a_nutshell.pptx|link for stan}}
