14. Towards the European Strategy
IN2P3-IRFU joined prospective effort (2-5 Avril 2012) at Giens about next ~10 years activity/priority in France (400 participants)
Bottom-Up approach with 20 working groups :
Written documents before the workshop (scientific + resource aspects)
Presentation/discussion during workshop
Executive summary by summer
International Advisory committee in fall 2012 to examine French recommendations.
Agencies’ roadmap for the end of 2012

15. Outline
28/11/11 Journée projets

16. Giens pre-conclusions (I)
First priority is the LHC : data taking + analysis + phase I upgrade (IN2P3 scientific council in June 2012 to define contributions). High lumi (>2022) or High energy for LHC was discussed and strongly depends on new physics observed or not in 13 TeV running
Linear collider (LC):
Quite some discussions about a “Fast-Track LC (in Japan)” starting at 230 GeV (if Higgs discovered at LHC at 125 GeV !) and upgradable at 500 GeV) or a higher energy (longer term) few-TeV project.
Consensus seems to appear to participate and push for such a Fast-Track LC project : use Higgs discovery opportunity to convince ministry
LC town Hall meeting of May 16th at Paris (ECFA/LC input to European Strategy Group))
FALC meeting mid April and FJPPL in May … to learn more about Japanese projects/views
28/11/11 Journée projets

17. Giens pre-conclusions (II)
Precision measurement experiments (nEDM, Aegis, Gbar, Super B) :
- Neither clear nor strong conclusion
- Small community….
Neutrinos :
Interest to participate to a long baseline neutrino project in Europe
A strategic vision has here to be set :
might need to choose between long baseline or neutrinoless project…
LSM host lab for new generation neutrino experiment (CP violation) or dark matter detector ?  LSM extension
28/11/11 Journée projets

18. Conclusion
European Strategy for Particle Physics is a mandatory input for
our research authorities in order to promote new projects
Communication aspects are crucial to assess the need of fundamental
science like particle physics but also to demonstrate the benefits
(sometimes longer term) for the society (for instance health sector…)
Brussels 2013 will be a key date for the future of our field
Hope you will have a fruitful meeting !!!
