Slack is a virtual office space where users can chat to each other one-to-one or in various "Channels" about a given topic. Slack is still to gain a critical mass within the collaboration but it is hoped that it will be a useful tool in the future.

How to Use

Go to slack.com and sign up with your fnal.gov e-mail address and join the "Mu2e" team.

Browse the list of channels by clicking "Channels" in the left sidebar and join those you are interested in.

The current, most-used channels are:

  • #general
    • all members of the Mu2e "team" join this channel
  • #is_it_me_or_a_bug
    • the Slack equivalent of the "HELP! Is it me or a bug?" hypernews forum
  • #basicqs
    • a channel for asking any basic question about anything related to the experiment of Fermilab
  • #meeting_rides
    • a channel to organise carpooling (e.g. for collaboration meetings)
  • #youngmu2e
    • a channel for all Young Mu2e members to chat about anything

Can't find an appropriate channel? Then add one by clicking the "+" next to "Channels"!
