6. EPS Budapest August 2002 6 OECD GSF HEP Consultative Group Final Report June 2002

7. EPS Budapest August 20027 HEP Consultative Group formed to: Exchange views between government delegations on future direction of HEP Exchange views between government delegations on future direction of HEP Examine rationale behind programme priorities and strategies Examine rationale behind programme priorities and strategies Discuss generic issues Discuss generic issues Identify and examine organisational and managerial issues Identify and examine organisational and managerial issues All from point of view of governments or funding agencies

8. EPS Budapest August 20028 Participants in Group A wide representation of interested bodies is essential for true consultation. OECD member nominees OECD member nominees Non-OECD member delegates Non-OECD member delegates Representatives of scientific communities Representatives of scientific communities There were four meetings marked by free & open discussion with full participation by all present.

9. EPS Budapest August 20029 Input from communities was invaluable in enabling Group to understand significance of ‘Standard Model’ & its limitations Input from communities was invaluable in enabling Group to understand significance of ‘Standard Model’ & its limitations Group was impressed by range and depth of studies by world-wide HEP communities, and care with which the arguments were marshalled Group was impressed by range and depth of studies by world-wide HEP communities, and care with which the arguments were marshalled Group was impressed by consensus on the way forward Group was impressed by consensus on the way forward And found the arguments compelling And found the arguments compelling

10. EPS Budapest August 200210 “The Consultative Group concurs with the world-wide consensus of the scientific community that a high- energy electron-positron linear collider should be the next facility.”

11. EPS Budapest August 200211 “There should be a significant period of concurrent running of the LHC and the LC, requiring the LC to start operating before 2015. Given the long lead times for decision-making and for construction, the process of consultation among interested countries should begin at a suitably- chosen time in the near future.”

12. EPS Budapest August 200212 “To ensure the long-term vitality of particle physics as described by the Road Map, a diverse accelerator R&D programme should be maintained. Innovative accelerator concepts should be explored well before they may be needed, since the lead times for large, complex new projects span decades, and the unpredictable course of discovery in physics may shift the currently foreseen priorities of the facilities on the Road Map.”

13. EPS Budapest August 200213 Given the consensus on what is needed, and the strength of the arguments behind that consensus, what needs to be addressed? The Group looked at a range of areas where more governmental and intergovernmental work is needed The Group looked at a range of areas where more governmental and intergovernmental work is needed –Legal –Financial –Managerial –Oversight, reporting, accountability

18. EPS Budapest August 200218 How to decide the technology and the site, given the competing possibilities? Two (simplified) generic routes: a) Regions or countries compete – each with own technology – for local funding; first to reach critical level seeks partners, or a) Community decides on ‘best’ technology, seeks local funding for participation; governments or agencies ultimately decide outcome.

24. EPS Budapest August 200224 FINAL QUOTATION FROM GSF HEP REPORT Preparing and negotiating a formal agreement (or a series of agreements) for the design, construction and operation of a facility on the scale of a linear collider is very time-consuming. … several years may have to be devoted to consultations and negotiations that are the responsibility of governments. ….. Therefore, it is important to allow sufficient time for inter-governmental consultations, well before any financial, manpower, timeline, or other commitments are made.
