[Hess-ap] minutes AP meeting 13/1/23

Dear WG conveners, There are requests to put the AP minutes on confluence. Are there any objection to this? The latest one is below. Let me know if it need some corrections? @Kathrin: you mentioned a name of the member who starts working on cosmic rays. I did record it. Perhaps you can add. Please provide objections/edits by Thursday. Next HESS-AP will be February 10. Best, Jacco ---- HESS AP meeting 13/1/2023 Present: Jacco Vink, Stefan Wagner, Brian Reville, Jonathan Mackey, Kathrin Egberts, Absent: Sabrina Casanova, Fabian Schlüssler, Matteo Cerruti, Dieter Horns -Welcome -Discussion on outcome of OC * OC has internal ranking, but approved list with A/B ranking expected end of the month * 500 hr requested: matches availibility without new legacy targets * For P1 program is in good shape * Judgement on Legacy expected later: there were issues with submission process * OC Process: not all OC members present all the time, some conflicts: variance can be large on ranking * Strive to add one or two members next round, preferably with Fermi experience -ICRC contributions * See https://hess-confluence.desy.de/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=477… for timeline abstract submissions * Submitted contributions will need a talk on next H.E.S.S. coll. meeting Apr 17... -Usual rules apply: we want papers presented that are journal submitted or close to submission * WG conveners/AP dept should follow up rules in order to not send clear message. That may mean retracting talks for papers not yet in their final stages * As it is also HESS advertisements: WG conveners should think which results need to be presented irrespective of availibility of project leaders. (But no overlap with previous ICRC) * Round of WGs: * Transients: WT talk on Tuesday 24th Jan 9:30 on GRB221009A * Diffuse: Sabrina will continue as WG convener * SNRPP: overview on talks: L. Guinti on Vela Jr, on HESSj1518; Collaboration between eROSITA and Vela-X not to be followed up * Stellar: Eta Car, difficulties in analysis also in view of previous results, but there is a detection; SS443 project. internally reviewed. SS443 to be considered for ICRC. * CR WG: ECAPP members will work on cosmic-ray detections with HESS adding a new project to this WG. -AOB SW: people need to actively update the conference list on https://hess-confluence.desy.de/confluence/display/HESS/Astrophysics+Depart… SW: often observed data take a long time before people start on analyzing them. WG conveners need to keep an eye on this
