Students will be divided into 6 groups. Each group has ~9 students and will receive ~50 minutes hands-on training in the Main Control Room. The instructors are Bob Mau (Fermilab) and his colleagues. Students will have lunch at Fermilab and visit several sites, including the linac gallery, Wilson Hall, Industrial Buildings, CDF or D0, and the superconducting RF facilities.
While the final lecture is being prepared, you can find here already my lecture from the previous ILC school. It is shorter in length but contains the most relevant information about the topics that I will cover.
