ICFA Report to FALC February 2016 to August 2016 J. Mnich (DESY)

ICFA Meeting August 7, 2016

New Mandate for LC At the February meeting ICFA decided to continue the LC structure beyond 2016 F. Gianotti, N. Lockyer, J. Mnich and M. Yamauchi were charged to work out a new mandate for the Linear Collider Collaboration (LCC) and the Linear Collider Board (LCB) Draft was discussed and – with minor modifications – approved on August 7

New Mandate for LCB/LCC Main ideas behind new mandate: As little changes as necessary keep names of LCB and LCC Make it leaner: no Project Advisory Committee (PAC) anymore no regional directors anymore Keep the four directors incl. three associated directors ILC, CLIC and Physics & Detectors and optional deputy director

New Mandate for LCB/LCC Main purpose over the next years: Oversight on worldwide R&D efforts relevant R&D (mostly) done through other projects Keep the successful close collaboration and synergy between ILC and CLIC Promote LC in politics and general public thus establish close links to e.g. KEK ILC promotion office, CLIC collaboration and Outreach (communicators) Keep possibility for common fund after endorsement by LCB, approval through FALC

New Mandate for LCB/LCC

New Mandate for LCB/LCC Linear Collider Board: Keep structure as it is 5 members from each of the 3 regions plus chair Regions nominate their members ICFA appoints members & chair Duration of LCB/LCC mandate: to be reviewed by ICFA on a regular basis, at least after three years Next step: fill the boxes with names

New IUPAP Working Group on Accelerator Science Other topics New IUPAP Working Group on Accelerator Science more general, beyond HEP close links to ICFA ICFA panels new panel on sustainable accelerators and colliders review of ICFA panels, mandate,membership, duration ongoing

International Linear Collider LCB and LCC mandates: The current mandate of the Linear Collider Board (LCB), which incorporates the Linear Collider Collaboration (LCC), has a three year term which will end in February 2016. ICFA extended the mandate of LCB and LCC to the end of 2016, so that the membership and mandate of both entities can be reviewed during 2016
