  2. RECFA activities: country visits • Since the last CHIPP plenary, 8-9 September 2008, RECFA has visited • 10 October 2008: Greece • 6 March 2009: Switzerland, compared to the last visit in 2002 in Zürich, • Progresses were made, e.g. CHIPP, FORCS, PSI, active astroparticle physics programme • Another positive points: very international • Recommended for, FORCE like funding for non CERN programme, additional chair for accelerator, more money for Outreach • 15 May 2009: Norway EPS HEPC 2009 Cracow EPS Session 18.07.09

  3. ECFA activities: scientific • Working group for INFN Super B Factory • ∫ L dt > 50×now needed • INFN scheme (colliding nano-beams by storing them in ultra-low emittance states) could open up a new paradigm of storage rings. • Concept is not yet completely worked out: rigorous R&D recommended for the TDR, which should be the base for an approval of the project • In the mean time, KEK changed their design to adapt the INFN scheme. Received ~32 MCHF for R&D • LHeC study group: CDR by the end of this year • Questions on neutrino beam and ILC⊗CLIC are coming up EPS HEPC 2009 Cracow EPS Session 18.07.09

  4. Additional points • ECFA survey: activities and statistics in particle and astroparticlephysics in Europe on going • Will be presented during the Plenary ECFA meeting in November at CERN • New ECFA chair endorsed during the last Plenary ECFA meeting in July in Cracow (starting from 1 August 2009) • Relation to the astroparticle physics community to be investigated EPS HEPC 2009 Cracow EPS Session 18.07.09
