Description
Physics Beyond Colliders is an exploratory study aimed at exploiting the full scientific potential of CERN's accelerator complex and its scientific infrastructure in the next two decades through projects complementary to the LHC, HL-LHC and other possible future colliders. These projects should target fundamental physics questions that are similar in spirit to those addressed by high-energy colliders, but that require different types of beams and experiments.
A kick-off workshop held in September 2016 identified a number of areas of interest and working groups have been set-up to study and develop these proposals. The projects currently under consideration are briefly presented including their physics motivation.
