Dear Colleagues,

The Search Committee received a considerable amount of feedback on the initial list of candidates for the new Physics Coordinator - thank you all for your valuable input. It turned out that all candidates were well supported, giving the committee a hard time when trying to fulfill the aim of the constitution of a maximum of 4 candidates. Those who will stand for election are

Greig Cowan Ulrik Egede Jonas Rademacker Marie-Hélène Schune

Many thanks to Tom Blake and Albert Puig for standing in the initial round.

The candidates are now busy writing their manifestos and we will make them, and their CVs, available to the collaboration after *** May 12th ***.

Please note that the public discussion with the Physics Coordinator Candidates will take place at CERN on *** Thursday, May 18th at 11:30am (CET) *** Vidyo will be available for this discussion (details to come later). We aim to take questions from those present at CERN and those on vidyo. If you prefer to ask a question anonomously, please send me your question in advance of the public discussion, and I will make sure it is asked on your behalf.

Please note that we are currently checking the electronic voting system, and will let you know the election procedure well in advance of the vote, which will take place during the period *** 1st-8th June ***. The outcome will be ratified at the following Collaboration Board Meeting on *** June 14th ***.

Best wishes, Val on behalf of the Physics Coordinator Search Committee
