The World-wide Consensus on the next LC

A world-wide consensus has formed for a baseline LC project in which positrons collide with electrons at energies up to 500 GeV, with luminosity above 1034 cm-2s-1. The energy should be upgradable to about 1 TeV. Above this firm baseline, several options are envisioned whose priority will depend upon the nature of the discoveries made at the LHC and in the initial LC operation.The LHC and LC will offer mutually supporting views of the new physics world at the TeV scale.

OECD GSF Consultative Group on High-Energy Physics:There should be a significant period of concurrent running of the LHC and the LC, requiring the LC to start operating before 2015.

Key Questions of Particle Physics

• What is mass/matter ?

• Can the forces be unified?• Fundamental symmetry of forces and building blocks?• Can quantum physics and general relativity be united?• Do we live in 4 dimensions?• What happened in the very early universe ?• Origin of dark matter

why are carriers of weak force so heavy while the photon is massless?

The Higgs Mechanism andthe Higgs Boson

In the Standard Model the Higgs mechanism is responsible for the generation of mass

• All elementary particles are originally massless• The entire universe is filled by a field• Elementary particles gain their mass through the interaction

with this field• The field gets distorted by the particle -> Mass generation• The field quantum: The Higgs Boson

The Higgs is the last missing element of the Standard Model

The Decision of the BMBF

The decisions of the German Ministry for Education and Research concerning TESLA was published on 5 February 2003:

DESY in Hamburg will receive the X-FEL as European project

Germany is prepared to carry half of the 673 MEuro investment cost.

Today no German site for the TESLA linear collider will be put forward. This decision is connected to plans to operate this project within a world-wide collaborationDESY will continue its research work on TESLA in the existing international framework, to facilitate German participation in afuture global project

38Albrecht Wagner

Next Steps for the X-FEL

• Site and some of the technical parameters for XFEL Laboratory are currently reconsidered.

• Formation of European Working Groups under way.

Aim for decision on construction in 2005!

39Albrecht Wagner

Consequences of the Decision for the Linear Collider

Given the decision of the German government the community will now take a path used for other international projects (e.g. ITER): • unite first behind one project with all its aspects, including the technology choice, in 2004 and then • approach all possible governments in parallel in order to trigger the decision process and site selection (2006/2007)Next R&D activities:• Test as many 9-cell cavities as possible, with full power for as long as possible at their highest gradient (35 MV/m). • In order to prepare the construction of the X-FEL, DESY and its partners will focus on issues related to the mass production of all components. This will lead within one to two years to further improvements of the technical design and a better cost evaluation.
