As almost everyone is aware, the San Francisco Bay Area is under a ‘shelter in place’ order, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has curtailed on-site operations.

For the Nuclear Science Division (as for the lab as a whole), safety is our highest priority. So, most of us are working from home, on data analysis, simulations, writing, and other tasks. The 88- inch cyclotron has stopped running, and most other laboratory work is in suspension. CERN has also largely shut down, so the ALICE ITS2 work has shifted from commissioning to software. Most meetings have been either cancelled or shifted to on-line only. The March 11-15th STAR Collaboration meeting, which was hosted by the RNC group, became on-line only.
