Report on ECFA Based on plenary ECFA meeting of 26 Nov. 2004 @ CERN • Issues: • Business as usual (chair, CERN, DESY) • ESGARD / CARE matters ( CARE, EuroTeV, Eurisol) • Elections • But: • Information not up-to-date: • Unfortunate timing NuPECC and ECFA meetings…. • Walter Henning can give you a recent update…. Gerard van der Steenhoven

  3. Business as usual (26 Nov. ‘04) • Chair (Brian Foster) + discussion afterwards • ITRG has selected cold (SC) technology, but not a design, which may deviate from TESLA considerably • OECD consultative group now replaced by Funding Agencies meetings on the Linear Collider (FALC) but what about the small countries (not in FALC)? • International Linear Collider (ILC): • Accelerating gradient of 35 – 40 MV/m is optimal for costs. • A lot of discussion on organizational matters….. • Test your knowledge of acronyms (next page)! Gerard van der Steenhoven

  4. Coordinates work in coming years

  5. CERN & DESY (26 Nov. ‘04) • CERN (R. Aymar) + discussion • Progress on LHC + 4 experiments, still aimed for 2007 • Prospects fixed-target programme: continuation in 2006 hinges on additional manpower from Member States • ALICE (but ask HA Gustafsson for update!) • Many major problems solves (bump bonding, HPTDC, software) • Very tight schedule for ITS, redesign FEE of TRD • DESY (A. Wagner) + discussion • HERA: 94 pb-1 in 2004 (record); expect 0.7 fb-1 by 30/6/’07 • XFEL: 9 EU partn. (MoU), Plan Approval signed (28/9/04) Gerard van der Steenhoven

  6. ESGARD etc. • ESGARD (= EU Steering Group on Accel. R&D): • Successful strategy for preparing EU – FP6 proposals • CARE: coordinated accelerator research in Europe (I3): • 4 JRA’s for SRF, Photo-injector, HI proton injector, HF magnets • 3 Networking activities: ELAN (e+e- coll.), BENE ( fact) and • HEHIHB (LHC lumi upgrade). • Successful kick-off meeting in Nov. 2004 at DESY. • Approved FP6 Design Studies: • EUROTeV: concerned with LC generic matters (for ILC & CLIC) • EURISOL: -beams  ask G Fortuna! Gerard van der Steenhoven

  7. Elections + AOB • Elections: • New chair: Prof. Torsten Akesson (Lund, Sweden) • Three year period starting in July 2005 • AOB: • 2005 timetable: • r+pECFA at CERN: 24 June 2005 • rECFA in Amsterdam (site visit): 23-24 Sept. 2005 • r+pECFA at CERN: 1-2 December 2005 Gerard van der Steenhoven
