Hello, A change in allocation has been requested: Requester: tslee (Tsung-Shung Lee) Project: anl-dcc Title: Dynamical coupled-channel analysis of hadrons at Argonne Description: In 2013, we have completed a 8-channel analysis with a publication accepted by Physical Review C, August 27, 2013. In 2014, we will extend this to include omega-N channel which is crucial in finalizing our determination of the nucleon spectrum at energies in the region of 1.8 - 2.5 GeV. This will allow us to analyze the new data from Jefferson Laboratory. The computations involve solving a large set of coupled-channel integral equations and searching for parameters to fit the world data of meson production of pion-nucleon and photon-nucleon reactions. The calculations account for eight meson-baryon channels and cover energies up to invariant mass W= 3 GeV. Large complex-matrix (1000 by 1000) need to be inverted many times in chi**2-fit to very extensive data (about 110,000 data points) . Standard fortran codes have been developed to perform parallel computations with the facilities at LCRC. The project will have 4 members. Current: undetermined amount Justification: Requested: 300000 A specific reason has been given: We will start production run in the coming April, which require extensive search of about 100 parameters to fit about 20,000 new data points from JLab to complete the ANL-Osaka project to reach DOE milestone HP7. This is the final stage of this 7-year DOE project on determining the excited nucleon states. This needs to be approved and the final allocation amount decided upon. Thank You, The LCRC Accounts System
