NorCC Annual Workshop 2024

4 Sept 2024, 09:00 → 5 Sept 2024, 15:00 Europe/Zurich

329, Hovedbygningen (NTNU Gløshaugen)

Eli Baverfjord Rye (University of Oslo (NO)), Heidi Sandaker (University of Oslo (NO))

Welcome to NorCC's annual workshop 2024, this time at NTNU Gløshaugen in Trondheim!

The focus of this year's workshop is to finalize the Norwegian roadmap for the coming 10 years, and to prepare input for the update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics. The workshop agenda is structured similar to the roadmap outline. (Note that the roadmap draft is not yet circulated, but it will be before the workshop.) We will also be able to visit some of the many laboratories at NTNU, and NTNU rector Tor Grande will welcome us and join us for lunch on the first day. 

 

Everyone is welcome, and we hope to see many of you there in person! The workshop will also be possible to follow online.

 

If you plan to attend in person, please be sure to register so we can arrange enough food and drinks — the deadline is noon on Wednesday, August 21. (The registration will remain open until Monday, August 26, but if you register after August 21, it is not guaranteed that you will be able to join the dinner.)

Thursday 5 September

11 Session 4 - Goals for FCC & future colliders in general, and how to meet them

This session covers topics specific to FCC and also to those that are general for all future colliders (e.g. physics, computing, detectors)

Speakers: Erik Adli (University of Oslo (NO)), James Catmore (University of Oslo (NO))

10:25 Break

12 Session 5 - Goals for FCC alternatives ("Plan B") and how to meet them

Speakers: Dr Carl A. Lindstrøm (University of Oslo (NO)), Oystein Midttun (University of Agder (NO)), Steffen Maeland (University of Bergen (NO))

Comments and questions during discussions

 

LC vision (Erik)

Comment from James: Two interaction poitns are crucial for the physics and detector community!

HALHF (Carl)

Q Eirik: Can you track (in the detector) a very asymmetric beam? Tracking is already difficult with a narrow cone.

Q Heidi: If the positron problem is solved (in plasma), would you still do an asymmetric collider?
A: Yes, the technology for electrons and positrons would anyway likely be different.

Q Ole: Could one use a circular machine for e+?
A: No, the time structure of a circular machine would be too different from the plasma linac.

Q James: What would be the time scale for building/operating this
A: 10-20 years?

Q Ionut: Are the optima sharp?
A: Not very sharp, and there is also uncertainity due to e.g. klystron pricing.

Comment Farid: Asymmetry might be good for analysis - e.g. secondary vertexes for tracking are "stretched out"

Comment Alex: Going straight to the highest energies would be very challenging
A: Indeed, want to work our way up

Applications (Steinar)

C Steinar to "FCC Accelerator oportunities": FCC injectors is something we could consider contributing to. Curently driven by PSI, who already has the expertise
