10:15  A. Vicere: `Evaluation of the detector geometry in the context of detector networks'
11:00  Set of talks on `Higher-order Laguerre Gauss modes'
       - J. Nelson: Prodcution of LG modes
       - P. Fulda: Interferometry with LG modes
       - J. Franc: Thermal noise reduction with LG modes

12:00  Lunch

13:30  R. Flaminio: `The Xylophone approach: multi-band antennas'
14:00  K. Somiya: `Suspension Point Interferometers'
.....  Final discussion (next meeting date, etc)

15:00  - 17:00 Discussion on future FP7 proposals, lead by M. Punturo, see below:


Discussion of FP7 proposals
---------

Two hours (3pm to 5pm) of the meeting will be dedicated to a discussion let by Michele Punturo
regarding future FP7 proposals. Michele has circulated information about this already,
in particular we want to discuss the following two question:

   1)   What are the R&D activities  we want to propose within ILIAS-next?
        a.      How we select them?
   2)   Are we interested to the e-Infrastructures call?
        a.      If yes, do we have “clever” infrastructural ideas/proposals?

The ELiTES proposal has been invited by the European Commission to the negotiation phase.

Eight institutes, participating to the ET science team, under the coordination of EGO,have presented at the beginning of 2011 a FP7 proposal titled: "ET-LCGT Interferometric Telescopes Exchange of Scientists" (ELiTES). It has been submitted under the International Research Staff Exchange Scheme (IRSES) programme and it consists in a four years scientists exchange programme between Europe and Japan, focused on cryogenic technology issues for LCGT and ET. The proposal has been evaluated positively by EU and invited to the negotiation phase.
