ALICE at LHC, collecting data in Pb-Pb, p-Pb and pp collisions, aims for the characterization of the QCD matter at high temperature and energy density.
While the first running period until 2017 can provide detailed description of
the global and bulk phenomena and a first set of results on rare probes of heavy-ion collisions, many important questions involving rare processes cannot be...

After successful LHC operation at the center-of-mass energy of 7 and 8
TeV in 2011 and 2012, plans are actively advancing for a series of
upgrades, culminating roughly 10 years from now in the high luminosity
LHC (HL-LHC) project, delivering of order five times the LHC nominal
instantaneous luminosity along with luminosity levelling. The final
goal is to extend the data set from about few...

The LHCb experiment is designed to perform high-precision measurements of CP violation and search for New Physics using the enormous flux of beauty and charmed hadrons produced at the LHC. The operation and the results obtained from the data collected in 2010 and 2011 demonstrate that the detector is robust and functioning very well. However, the limit of 1 fbโ1 of data per year cannot be...

The PHENIX collaboration has been developing detector upgrade plans for enhanced physics programs using full luminosity of recent upgraded RHIC facility. This upgrade, referred to as sPHENIX, provides a variety of programs with heavy-ion collisions and polarized proton collisions at RHIC. We're proposing a major upgrade of the central-rapidity spectrometer consisting of a solenoidal magnet...

We outline the physics opportunities [1] which are offered by a next generation and multi-purpose fixed-target experiment exploiting the LHC beams extracted by a bent crystal. This mature extraction technique offers an ideal way to obtain a clean and very collimated high-energy beam, without altering at all the performance of the LHC [2,3,4]. The multi-TeV LHC beams grant the most energetic...

The rare decays K->pnn are excellent processes to make tests of new physics at
the highest scale complementary to LHC thanks to their theoretically cleaness.
The NA62 experiment at CERN SPS aims to collect of the order of 100 K+->p+nunu
events in two years of data taking, keeping the background at the level of 10%.
Part of the experimental apparatus has been commissioned during a...

Twenty five years ago, CERN pioneered the study of quarkonium production in heavy ion collisions at the SPS with the aim of characterizing the QGP phase transition and testing lattice QCD predictions. In 1997, the NA50 experiment observed an anomalous suppression of J/psi production in Pb+Pb collisions. Since then, these quarkonium studies have been extended to regimes of significantly higher...

A polarized medium energy electron-ion collider (MEIC) is envisioned at Jefferson Lab as its future nuclear science program beyond the 12 GeV CEBAF fixed target program. Over the last three years, a conceptual design of MEIC has been successfully developed, and a comprehensive report summarizing the baseline and accelerator R&D progress has been released recently. The MEIC design studies have...

Much information was gained in the past on the structure of the nucleon, there is little data on the structure of the nucleus, particularly at small-to-intermediate x. The construction of an Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will allow the exploration of the nucleus across a wide region in x. Not only will nuclear PDFs be extracted, but the high statistics data generated will allow the study of...

The prospects for the measurement of properties of the Higgs boson at the LHeC are reviewed. This includes isolating the Higgs boson with the bbar decay with a 1:1 signal-to-background ratio. This allows for the model independent study of the CP structure of the HWW coupling separately from that of the HZZ coupling. The complementarity of Higgs physics at the LHeC and the LHC will be discussed.

It is obvious that the DIS experimental programme needs a new experimental facility to survive. For such a facility, to be seriously considered, several conditions must be fulfilled:
1. It must address new physics questions (beyond those addressed at
HERA and TJNAF).
2. Its role must be widely recognized as essential for the model
independent interpretation of the LHC...
