  1. ELAN in 2006 Annual Meeting F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  2. Main Activities • Future e+e- LC: European and International efforts • New techniques of acceleration: the start of EUROLEAP at the Orsay meeting • ELAN workshops • ELAN dissemination • ELAN and FP7 F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  3. Future of e+e- colliders The context: • ILC, the worldwide project for a 0.5-1 TeV collider will be using the SCRF technology developed in Europe with a central facility in DESY. European funding should continue playing a major role in this effort • This project is the post-LHC priority of HEP and a major effort has been started called the GDE to achieve costing on machine and detectors • In Europe, CLIC R&D is aiming towards a proof of feasibility for ~ 2010 F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  4. In the US • P5 Report: The Particle Physics Roadmap October 2006 • Quote: • ‘The ILC is the highest priority future project in the recent EPP2010 report from the National Research Council. We allocate $500 million for the relevant R&D activities over a five-year period. The goal is to produce a technical design on an international basis and once initial LHC physics results are known to initiate the next step toward realization of this accelerator’ F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  6. Europe • Priority is for LHC while, as noted by ESFRI, a strategy group created by CERN council claims that: • ‘It is fundamental to complement the results of the LHC with measurements at a linear collider. In the energy range of 0.5 to 1 TeV, the ILC, based on SC technology , will provide a unique scientific opportunity at the precision frontier’ • ESFRI notes that ‘It is also vital to strengthen the advanced accelerator R&D programme’ • CERN while participating actively to the ILC GDE is coordinating the R&D effort on CLIC, the future Multi TeV LC F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  7. ELAN and LC • ELAN is directly connected to ILC: 3 WP leaders (BDYN, INSTR, SCRF) belong to the GDE • ELAN is supporting or organizing Workshops around ILC and CTF • ELAN is encouraging synergies between ILC and CLIC: • Preparation of an experiment at KeK on µbeams (metrology/alignment) • Beam Dynamics • Laser technology to produce polarized e+ F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  8. Generation of polarized e+ • Previous Workshop has been summarized on CARE/ELAN document-2006-006 (CERN, Japan, Fr, It, Ge, Rus, China…) • Ideas are rapidly evolving (ERL scheme avoiding e+ ring, improving on FB cavities) proposed end of September @ RAL • Presumably a JRA for FP7 F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  9. Future techniques of acceleration • Recent improvement achieved: W. Leemans et al. in Nature Sept 2006 (S.M. Hooker from ELAN) • 1 GeV/cm with 2.5% 30 pc 1.6 mrad with a 40 TW laser • In Europe there is also progress (cf V. Malka) and EUROLEAP (NEST) initiative has been launched during the ELAN WS in Orsay • It includes synergy with accelerator experts • A possible roadmap for multi-TeV colliders ? At least for XFEL… F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  10. Electron Accelerator R&D for the Energy Frontier • CARE/ELAN on May 15: - Plenary in the morning on laser/plasma, a proposal for a new infrastructure on SC, Progress in CLIC cavities, BDYN+INSTR… - FP7 1h30 discussion in the afternoon followed by a working party (ELAN Doc. 2006-04) - 4 Parallel ELAN sessions for 3h30 • EUROLEAP kick-off meeting on May 16 • In // EUROTEV on May 16 • Conclusions May 17 F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  11. FP7 • 3 possible tools to prolong CARE and EUROTEV • CNI new tool which requires ESFRI support (~OK for CERN but only implicit) • DS very different from EUROTEV <5M€ • JRA within I3 with TA and NW <45M€ • Very large set of LoI presented to ESGARD amounting to a very large amount of money F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  12. ELAN & FP7 • ESGARD has split in 3 the relevant LoI • ELAN is involved in the organization of 2 of them and on the CNI • CNI : SCRF see talk W. Weingarten • IA on SC RF • IA on new techniques of acceleration which include CLIC and laser/plasma R&D • These as well as the ELI CNI have been discussed within ELAN in parallel sessions at this meeting F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  13. Dissemination in ELAN • 10 workshops + 1 Accelerator school were supported • ELAN annual WS was held in Orsay with 85 participants • This effort resulted in 16 ELAN Documents and 2 ELAN-Conf • The ELAN web page contains infos about the workshops and about the documents F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  17. Conclusions • Very active period on electron accelerator R&D • Successful ELAN workshop at Orsay • ELAN is a useful tool in: - Supporting workshops on future linear colliders - Promoting new techniques for acceleration - Preparing for FP7 F. Richard LAL/Orsay

  18. ESFRI Statement on CERN F. Richard LAL/Orsay
