  1. Introduction to the GDR Terascale Abdelhak Djouadi, LPT Orsay Dirk Zerwas, LAL Orsay • A brief history • GDR Terascale • Miscellanea

  2. A Brief History • Before 1996: informal meetings on Supersymmetry in the Paris region (Binétruy, Fayet, Grivaz, Ellwanger et al) • 1996: new CNRS structure Groupement de Recherche (virtual lab with a lifetime of 4+4 years maximum) • creation of the GDR Superymétrie (Director: Pierre Binétruy) • 2000: re-creation of the GDR Supersymétrie as EuroGDR (Director Pierre Binétruy) • 2004 extension of the GDR Superymétrie as GDR (Director Jean Orloff) • 2008: administrative end of the GDR Supersymétrie • end of 2008: creation of GDR Terascale (2009-2012-2016)

  3. A Brief History • GDR Terascale formal steps: • 2 directors (one theorist: Abdelhak, one experimentalist: Dirk) • summer 2008: • nominated members of the conseil du groupement • with help from conseil nominate group coordinators • write the proposal (coordinators) • autumn 2008: • submitted proposal to IN2P3 (accepted by IN2P3 board of directors) • IN2P3 submitted scientific part of the proposal to board 03 • commission 03: positive evaluation (! tell Sarkozy, please) • winter 2008/2009: • formal creation of GDR by CNRS (Journal Officiel) • spring 2009: • kick-off meeting LPSC Grenoble • April 1: budget decided by IN2P3

  4. Conseil du Groupement • Scientific supervision and strategy • group coordinators • Geneviève Bélanger (LAPTH Annecy) • Marc Besancon (CEA) • Pierre Binétruy (APC) • Emilian Dudas (CPT Palaiseau) • Pierre Fayet (LPT/ENS Paris) • Susan Gascon-Shotkin (IPNL Lyon) • Pascal Gay (LPC Clermont-Ferrand) • Ulrich Goerlach (IPHC Strasbourg) • Jean-Francois Grivaz (LAL Orsay) • Michael Klasen (LPSC Grenoble) • Philippe Miné (LLR Palaiseau) • Jean Orloff (LPC Clermont-Ferrand) • Sylvie Rosier-Lees (LAPP Annecy) • Charling Tao (CPPM Marseille) • Steve Abel (IPPP Durham) • Gino Isidori (INFN Frascati) • Tilman Plehn (ITP Heidelberg) • Michel Tytgat (UL Bruxelles) informal European participation

  5. The GDR • Theoretical and experimental research on new physics at the TeV scale (broader definition than Superymmetry) • Higgs and Supersymmetry (at colliders) • Jean-Loic Kneur (LPTA Montpellier), Rémi Lafaye (LAPP Annecy), Fabio Maltoni (UCL Louvain) and Patrice Verdier (IPN Lyon) • the Higgs Boson (standard or supersymmetric) • supersymmetry • search for and measurement of ….(hopefully) • Group: Alternatives • Fabienne Ledroit (LPSC), Gregory Moreau (LPT Orsay) and Geraldine Servant (CEA/CERN) • extra dimensions • new gauge bosons • new quarks • non standard Higgs bosons…

  6. GDR Terascale • Dark Matter • Gianfranco Bertone (IAP) and Emmanuel Moulin (CEA) • direct and indirect detection of dark matter, complementarity with collider studies • Methods and Tools • Sabine Kraml (LPSC Grenoble), Steve Muanza (CPPM Marseille) • plenary group: background modeling, new physics, precision calculations…. • Open exchange between theorists and experimentalists • Plenary meetings: 1/year in France if possible 2 European meetings every other year • group meetings • Small workshops (~10 people) • The GDR will be what we make of it

  7. Miscellanea • Web-site: http://terascale.in2p3.fr • feedback welcome • mailing list: • terascale-l AT in2p3.fr (please subscribe) • All meetings in indico • http://indico.in2p3.fr/ •  Laboratoires •  GDR Terascale • Logo: • Send your proposal to Abdelhak! • Thank you to the LPSC for hosting us • Special thanks to Michael Klasen and Fabienne Ledroit • Have a successful meeting!
