SUPERNOVA EARLY ALERT NETWORK

First International Workshop

Boston University Boston, MA

September 11-12, 1998

Discussion Group Summaries:

Here are summaries of the conclusions of the three discussion sessions.

• The neutrino signal and triangulation: what will the individual experiment signals look like? How well will it be possible to point to the supernova by combining neutrino burst timing information from different neutrino experiments? (Postscript, 0.2 Mb)
• Inter-experiment connection: alert implementation and data exchange issues. (Postscript, 0.4 Mb)
• Connection with the astronomical community: how can we organize astronomer responses to have the best possible chance of observing early supernova light? (Postscript, 53K)
