Who can speak for Europe ?

• CERN was established in 1953 as an intergovernmental Organization and plays a special role and has special status on the European particle physics scene:

• Under the terms of the CERN Convention1, its mission is to

– “provide for collaboration among European States in nuclear research of a pure scientific and fundamental character, and in research essentially related thereto.”

• The Convention provides that this mission be implemented through two kinds of activity:

1. “the construction and operation of one or more international laboratories" with "one or more particle accelerators”

2. "the organization and sponsoring of international co-operation in nuclear research, including co-operation outside the Laboratories"

K. Jakobs P5 Meeting, SLAC, April 2006

Initiative from CERN CouncilCERN Council

• Sept. 2005: Establish an ad hoc Scientific Advisory Group (Strategy Group)

• Mandate: produce a Draft Strategy Document (DSD) addressing the main lines of Particle Physics in Europe

- accelerator-based - non-accelerator based - including R&D for novel accelerator and detector technologies

• In the DSD, the Strategy Group shall aim:– to enhance the visibility of existing European particle physics programmes;– to foster increased collaboration among Europe's particle physics laboratories

and institutes;– to promote a coordinated European participation in world-wide projects;– to re-iterate the CERN Council's 2004 position on the European strategy for

the International Linear Collider;– to encourage knowledge transfer to other disciplines, industries, and society;– to outline priorities;– to consider time scales.

K. Jakobs P5 Meeting, SLAC, April 2006

After extensive discussion, the Council agreed that it could go on record with the following statement:

"The Council:• Confirms that the first priority for the world particle physics community is to complete the LHC and its detectors in order to unveil, as soon as possible, the physics at the new energy frontier;

• Encourages the effort towards the design and development of a linear collider as a unique scientific opportunity at the precision frontier, complementary to the LHC;

• Confirms its endorsement of accelerated R&D activities for CLIC;

• Recognises the overall value for the world particle physics community of a decision to construct a TeV linear collider, and encourages the efforts of the leading players in that direction;

• Takes the view that, in the course of this process, it will be appropriate to take stock of the LHC and accelerator R&D results and produce a new assessment of the physics and the technology by 2010;

• Is of the opinion that, in the initial phase (2004-2007), the organisational structure of the global design initiative, in particular the Central Design Team, should be light."

Summary on LHC + upgrades:

• First data set with excellent prospects for discoveries (10-30 fb-1) may be expected for 2009/10. Analysis needs detailed understanding of detectors and backgrounds.

• Full LHC luminosity allows for discovery of very broad range of high-PT phenomena and measurements of new particle properties.

• LHC luminosity upgrade (SLHC) increases discovery reach by 20-30%, better precision for statistically limited processes.

• Energy upgrade (DLHC) has larger discovery reach but represents a significantly larger effort.

• New proposal submitted: supplement LHC by a 70 GeV e± storage ring to allow for ep collisions at s = 1.4 TeV (4x HERA) and L = 1033 cm-2 s-1 (20x HERA)

physics motivation: unique for eq resonances (Leptoquarks, squarks in RPV-SUSY,…) precise analysis of LQ quantum numbers would be possible over the full LHC discovery range

Page 12: Karl Jakobs Universität Freiburg   Germany

LHC machine status and a “likely” startup scenario

See : http://lhc-new-homepage.web.cern.ch/lhc-new-homepage/DashBoard/index.asp

A “likely” startup scenario: (HEP06 conf., Lyn Evans, ATLAS Coll. Meeting, Feb.06) Late 2007: Proton run ~ 10 - 100 pb-1 (for 10 pb-1: number of tt events comparable to Tevatron with 1 fb-1)

→ detector and trigger commissioning, calibration, early physics

By end 2008: Physics runs: ~ 1 – 10 fb-1

By end 2009: Physics runs: > 15 fb-1

• Plan: terminate installation in February 2007

• Cryogenics + dipole installation on critical path to be ready for beam in Summer 2007

The ILC physics case (K. Desch in Orsay)

0. Top quark at threshold

1. ‘Light’ Higgs (consistent with precision EW) verify the Higgs mechanism is at work in all elements

2. ‘Heavy’ Higgs (inconsistent with precision EW) verify the Higgs mechanism is at work in all elements find out why precision EW data are inconsistent

3. 1./2. + new states (SUSY, Extra Dimensions, little H, Z’, …) precise spectroscopy of the new states

precision measurements of couplings of Standard Model & new states properties of new particles above kinematic limit

4. No Higgs, no new states (inconsistent with precision EW) find out why precision EW data are inconsistent look for threshold effects of strong/delayed EWSB

Early LHC data likely to guide the direction choice of ILC options and upgrade to 1 TeV depends on LHC+ILC(500) results

LHC + ILC data analyzed together synergy

Accelerator and Detector R&D in Europe

CARE: Integrated Infrastructure Initiative supported by the European Commission (EC) withîn Framework Program FP6 (2004 – 2008) built around three network activities (8 institutes, including CERN & DESY): ELAN = Electron Linear Accelerator Network BENE = Beams in Europe for Neutrino Experiments HHH = High energy, High intensity Hadron beams

EUROTeV: European Design Study towards a Global TeV Linear Collider (28 institutes)

EUROTeV addresses some of the high ranking issues identified by the ILC Technical Review Committee → input to the ILC Conceptual Design Report (CDR) and thereafter the ILC Technical Design Report (TDR) Items: Beam delivery system, damping rings, diagnostics, metrology, …. Activities are expected to be complemented by studies in the US and in Japan

EUDET: Detector R&D towards the ILC (31 institutes + 20 associated institutes) 2006 - 2010 provides framework for ILC detector R&D with larger prototypes

Main items: Tracking (large TPC prototype, Silicon TPC readout, Silicon tracking) Calorimetry (scalable ECAL and HCAL prototypes, readout…)

Page 18: Karl Jakobs Universität Freiburg   Germany

K. Jakobs P5 Meeting, SLAC, April 2006

Physics case for a 3-5 TeV e+e- CLIC

Viewpoint (i): Candidate machine for the ILC Viewpoint (ii): Natural upgrade path of ILC program if physics demands; Physics justification needs TeV-scale data

Physics highlights (ii):1. Rare Higgs decays, e.g. H →

2. Improve on Higgs self coupling + extend mass range3. More complete SUSY spectrum4. Extending mass reach new resonances, scans5. Study resonances of strong EWSB if within kinematic reach

Technology: significant R&D needed,…., Experimentation more difficult.

Summary: Main “wishes” of the European Community

• Strong support should be made available to make success of the present and near-future program.

• The Double-CHOOZ experiment should be strongly supported.

• The involvement of European neutrino physicists in the neutrino physics program abroad (e.g. T2K, NOA) should be supported in a way that would assure a viable and significant contribution.

• Europe should get ready to host a major neutrino facility for the precision era, or to play a major role in the preparation and construction of this facility should it be located elsewhere.
