  1. LC-ABD Phase 2 updateG. A. Blair, RHULLC-ABD MeetingDurham 26th September 2006 • PPRP Meeting • Feedback from PPRP • Plans • Eurotev news

  2. PPRP Meeting • Held in RIBA, London on 5th Sept. 2006 • Presentations by • D. Angal-Kalinin (‘existing’ tasks) and • A. Wolski (‘new tasks’). • All WP managers were present in the closed session where some questions were asked by the panel to each WP. • There were no major surprises and generally things went very well.

  3. Beam Delivery System Crab Cavity Main LinacCavity Wakefields Beam Dumps Instrumentation and Diagnostics Fast Feedback Survey, Alignment and Stabilisation Polarised Positron Source LC-ABD programme addresses closely-connected areas • Damping Rings Energy Spectrometer Beam Quality and Stability:Luminosity Production A.Wolski

  4. LC-ABD timescale is well-aligned with GDE project timescale A.Wolski

  5. Summary • The proposed programme will: • • build on and extend the success of the previous LC-ABD programme; • We will take advantage of new opportunities to benefit from an integrated, global view of the ILC. • • continue to demonstrate scientific excellence; • Research will focus on phenomena requiring precision measurement and modelling, and detailed and complete analysis for a full understanding. • As a result of the research, system designs will be optimised for low technical risk and low cost. • New tools and techniques will be developed that will be essential for the ILC to achieve its performance goals. • • be well-integrated into the international R&D program; • Focus will be on topics identified as high priority by the GDE R&D Board. • The programme will benefit from strong collaboration with international partners. • UK experts already have significant leadership roles in the GDE. • •strengthen and extend UK leadership in a project that directly addresses several key topics in the PPARC science programme. A.Wolski

  6. PPRP Feedback • The Panel feels that the science case for LC-ABD is impressive and would like to thank the proponents for the useful presentations and discussions. • This is seen as an important experiment that will have a major impact on key science areas and that fits well with PPARC and CCLRC key strategic priorities. • In reviewing a project of this size the PPRP needs to explore fully and understand the management plans, costs and timescales of the project so that it can determine how best to get a good science return for its investment.

  7. Visiting Panel Will be held at Daresbury, starting at 11.30am on Wednesday 11th October. Panel will consist of • Jon Butterworth (Chair) • Iain Steele • Steve Boyd • Steve Holmes • Daniel Schulte I am still waiting for a detailed agenda from PPARC

  8. EUROTeV News • The next Eurotev meeting will not be at Valencia; moved to Daresbury in January 8-9 2007. • Extension of EUROTeV programme by one year is likely; ending December 2008. • Need to prepare financial summaries by end of 2006; but no detailed audit this time.

  9. SUMMARY • We made a good first impression at PPRP • We have a lot of work to do for visiting panel. • EUROTeV likely to be extended to 2008.
