ESGARD - 19ESGARD - 19thth May 06 May 06• In total:

- CNI 2- DS 5- JRA 24- TA 1- Cost 249M€+?

• Too many/much: must be reduced!• ESGARD will - combine overlapping LOIs - clarify some - call for talks (at CARE06?) - prioritise• Priorities must be consistent with CERN SG• 1st idea (not discussed or agreed):

- proton related I3- LC (CLIC+ILC) I3

What about us?What about us?

• Feasibility study• Accelerator R&D• Detector R&D• Physics

Four areas of work identified:Four areas of work identified:

Feasibility StudyFeasibility Study

• Obvious match to DS• Worry is priority• But………

- ESGARD acknowledges FP6 problem- ILC care mainly about CNI

- DS’s are only small now• Need to persuade Roy/ESGARD

Accelerator R&DAccelerator R&D

• Neutrino I3 (inc. FS & detector R&D)- priority will be a problem (3rd out of 3?) -

how many PP I3’s will EU approve? - best way, if successful - most likely way of getting nothing!• JRAs in proton I3

- 1st priority- number of JRAs limited- would need careful negotiation to maximise- other programmes for lost JRAs- SCRF CNI-R&D: 200&700MHz SC RF- CNI-R&D: target test facility, MICE, etc? -

oncology: FFAGs• JRAs in a neutron + muon I3?

3(+) possbilities

Detector R&D + PhysicsDetector R&D + Physics

• Neutrino detector I3?- precedent exists (EUDET?) - later round than CARE - not in ESGARDs remit - EU may ask ESGARD/ECFA anyway - need ESGARD-independent advice

- other possibilities? - astro-particle rather than PP?

• FP7:* Cooperation * People

* Capacities – Research Infrastructures * Ideas – ERC: research projects at science frontiers

Detector R&D + PhysicsDetector R&D + Physics

• Physics?- do we need funding?- is BENE enough?

For me......for accel. R&D…..For me......for accel. R&D…..

• Neutrino I3 is too risky• Need to know more about ERC and other programmes• Proton I3: focus more on technology than science• Has already worked:

- HIPPI - EMMA - RACCAM

- (MERIT)- (Beta

beam)• Exception: MICE – but this been a struggle in EU

Next StepNext Step

• Need clear definition of R&D required to- determine scale of problem- prioritise- see where it may fit -

start negotiations - prepare good presentation for ESGARD
