Information for the PTCS Project Team

This page contains links to active work packages, commissioning experiments, instrumentation documentation, and so on. It is designed to be convenient for project team members. Most documentation exists as these wiki pages, but less ephermal information is captured in ProjectNotes, SystemNotes, and other FormalDocumentation (especially PresentationsAndProceedings, which has useful talks).
