Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 1 The Outreach Subcommittee of the European Linear Collider Steering Group (ELCSG) Michael Kobel (Bonn University) on behalf of the 4 coordinators

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 2 Global LC Organisation from 2002

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 3 European Linear Collider Steering Group Membership: Brian Foster (Chair), Luciano Maiani, Albrecht Wagner, David Miller, Sergio Bertolucci, Francois Richard Has formed sub-committees in areas of: Physics and Detector (  ECFA Study) Accelerator Organisational Structures, e.g. Global Accelerator Network (G. Kalmus et al) outreach: June 2003 Considerable and substantive discussions between ELCSG and USLCSG (and ALCSG)

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 4 ELCSG outreach sub-committee One person per CERN member state (i.e. 20 members), nominated by RECFA, to adopt a country-by country strategy (currently 16 nominated, Austria, Portugal, Slovac, Bulgaria missing) ELCSG: Ask the group to tackle three issues: Immediate strategy aimed at politicians Strategy aimed at other scientists, more relaxed timescale Strategy aimed at the general public order does not reflect the importance, but the urgency. strategy should include the whole spectrum of media available. deadline for the achievement of the political strategy by end of Coordinators (appointed by ELCSG) Phil Burrows (London), Giorgio Chiarelli (Pisa), Francois le Diberder (Paris), Michael Kobel (Bonn)

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 5 more precise tasks The first priority is to promote the LC as a global project to be biult somewhere in the world and to run in overlap with LHC via the Global Accelerator Network (GAN) The second priority is to extol the virtues of such a project for Europe, especially if it were to be situated in Europe The group should take responsibility for the implementation of the proposal in each country, with the help of the ELCSG Some help can be expected from the big labs (DESY, INFN...), but much the implementation has to be done at the country level Similar outreach subcommittees exist for the USLCSG and the ALCSG. There should be a coordination with existing LC and particle physics outreach efforts in each country (e.g. DESY, INFN) and on European Level (e.g. EPOG outreach group)

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 6 Actions so far several video/phone conferences of organizers First sub-committee meeting, Aachen, 18./ present: 9 members, + 5 remote contributions collect info on national activities establishing a web site session proposal at ESOF 2004, Stockholm outreach day + exhibition at LCW04 Paris, April 04 posters cooperation with interaction.org misc (school material, WYP05 etc) Second meeting, Montpellier, progress on all items above focus on politicians start to draft a strategy document

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 7 Some Details Web site: several levels: internal-public-politicians… to be filled with material soon (by ) National overview: wide spread of LC involvement, summary (Giorgio Chiarelli) will go on website, soon Posters: plan for two posters, to show in foyers of all institutes involved in LC (  visiting politicians..) interactions.org: cooperation started: link „future“, newsletter … next meeting: discuss how to reach politicians by printed material events industry etc.

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 8 Linear Collider Workshop LCWS04, Paris Exhibition in Palais de la Decouverte ( April) ground floor The Material will be of two types: for the public at large to explain how HEP-things work for the Politics and Media and the public to show that 1) HEP-LC is cutting-edge science and technology 2) a considerable amount of work has already been done 3) the project is well within the current trends in HEP+Cosmology 4) there is a world wide effort and consensus (including CERN) 5) there is spin-off from HEP (xFel, DataGrid, etc.) Conferences (Saturday the 24th) for the public, 220 seats participants from LCWS04 will join, and meet the public. one LC talk one Astroparticle talk one overall HEP talk Colloquium (to be confirmed) a four-five speakers talks (in French): Large projects (LC, LHC, ITER) professional media person in charge of discussion, public (250 persons) comes on invitation from the Palais Politics(ministry), maybe also from abroad? Media Scientists (incl. Lab directors)

Vienna, EPOG meeting, Michael Kobel, Bonn 9 Euro Science Open Forum 2004, Stockholm, www.esof2004.org Aim:highlight science in Europe. Longer powerpoint presentationLonger powerpoint presentation present science and the humanities at the cutting-edge stimulate scientific awareness foster debate on science and society Participants in 2004 will be academics, policy makers, politicians and representatives from media and the science based industries. In the name of ECFA the outreach subcommittee coordinators of the ELCSG have prepared a session proposal in collaboration with EPOG: „From Quarks to Galaxies“ (3h session w/ 5 talks + exhibition)session proposal A.Theorist (male,NL,57): The Nature of Matter and Forces A.Phenomenologist (female, I(US), 31): The Cosmic Connection An.Experimentalist (male,I,69): From Accelerators to Cancer Therapy A.Theorist (male,SE,39): Theories Spanning Time and Space of the Universe An.Experimentalist (male,D,61): Tools for the next Decades Decision of Organisers: by December Funding: Application Stifterverband Germany: 9600€+7500 € joint „PUSH“ action of German industry for German session organizers
