22 22 Particle Physics Roadmap 2012 1. Introduction 2. Fundamental questions 3. Facilities 4. Roadmap 5. Technology

23 23 Roadmap chart What are the basic building blocks of the Universe? Can the forces between particles be understood in a unified framework? How does gravity fit in? What unknown properties of these particles and forces drove the evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang to its present state? What is the origin of the matter/antimatter asymmetry?

24 24 Recommended programme Exploitation phaseUpgrade phaseMedium-term construction (operation within c. 10 years) Design-stage projects; construction decision/start within c. 5 years R&D for longer-term future projects Energy frontier ATLAS+CMSATLAS+CMS phase 1 upgrades ATLAS+CMS phase 2 upgrades (HL-LHC) Higgs Factory LHeC HE-LHC CLIC Flavour frontier LHCb NA62 LHCb upgradePrecision lepton flavour experiment Neutrino frontier T2K MINOS+ SNO+ Neutrinoless double beta decay experiment Next-generation long baseline experiment LAr detector Neutrino factory Non- accelerator frontier EDM searchesDark matter search experiment

25 25 Energy frontier How do elementary particles acquire mass? Is the SM Higgs boson sufficient, or are new laws of physics required? What is the new physics that solves the problems of the SM? Are there new particles or new principles? Are there as-yet undiscovered symmetries of nature such as supersymmetry (SUSY)? Are leptons and quarks truly distinct, or are they separate manifestations of a single type of matter? Are there extra dimensions of space or time? Can we understand the phenomena produced by strongly interacting systems?

26 26 Recommended programme Exploitation phaseUpgrade phaseMedium-term construction (operation within c. 10 years) Design-stage projects; construction decision/start within c. 5 years R&D for longer-term future projects Energy frontier ATLAS+CMSATLAS+CMS phase 1 upgrades ATLAS+CMS phase 2 upgrades (HL-LHC) Higgs Factory LHeC HE-LHC CLIC Flavour frontier LHCb NA62 LHCb upgradePrecision lepton flavour experiment Neutrino frontier T2K MINOS+ SNO+ Neutrinoless double beta decay experiment Next-generation long baseline experiment LAr detector Neutrino factory Non- accelerator frontier EDM searchesDark matter search experiment

27 27 Flavour frontier How many generations of elementary particles are there? What principle determines this number? Does new physics introduce new sources of flavour- and CP-violation beyond those of the SM quark sector? If not, what principle explains the uniqueness of the SM couplings? Is charged lepton flavour conservation violated? If so, what new physics causes it?

28 28 Recommended programme Exploitation phaseUpgrade phaseMedium-term construction (operation within c. 10 years) Design-stage projects; construction decision/start within c. 5 years R&D for longer-term future projects Energy frontier ATLAS+CMSATLAS+CMS phase 1 upgrades ATLAS+CMS phase 2 upgrades (HL-LHC) Higgs Factory LHeC HE-LHC CLIC Flavour frontier LHCb NA62 LHCb upgradePrecision lepton flavour experiment Neutrino frontier T2K MINOS+ SNO+ Neutrinoless double beta decay experiment Next-generation long baseline experiment LAr detector Neutrino factory Non- accelerator frontier EDM searchesDark matter search experiment

29 Neutrino frontier What are the masses and properties of neutrinos and what role did they play in the evolution of the Universe? Is the neutrino its own antiparticle? Is CP violation realised in the neutrino sector? How are neutrinos connected to the matter-antimatter asymmetry?
