  3. Journée de réflexion 2012 General observations • I share the excitement about initial LHC and ATLAS performance and results. • I do not share the premature disappointment with the lack of immediate spectacular discoveries. HIGGS !!! • We have only scratched the surface of LHC physics! • The « weight » of different pillars inside particle physics in « public opinion » is subject to large short term shifts. • Do not listen to this, our time scale is 10y! • There is no more grace period for esperiments, where statistical error hides systematics. Its all about systematics, stupid! • In general, our Road Map is still right! We can continue to use it to orient us.

  4. Journée de réflexion 2012 Conclusions • DPNC is: • Innovative power in detector design, construction and data analysis; • Perseverance in getting at the physics; • Proliferation of projects for the future. • My opinion: we should not reduce our ambitions easily! • How can we live up to our ambitions? • We need a perspective for growth in personnel. • We need to maintain and develop technical groups and their skills. • NCCR Universe will give this perspective, if approved. Sorry! • In addition we need investment funds comparable to the initial ATLAS investment. Existing sources are insufficient. • We must use all imaginable sources: local, federal, European. • If we want any or all of this to be successful, we need the general public to support us. Reach out!

  5. Journée de réflexion 2012 Thanks • Thanks to all speakers for their high quality presentations. • Thanks to all participants for lively discussions. • Thanks to Teresa and Xin for organising the scientific contents. Peppe • Thanks to Catherine and Liliane for organising the venue.party and for keeping DPNC alive! • Thanks to Mother Nature for providing us with unlimited mysteries to study.
