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)

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 2003.

Coordinators (appointed by ELCSG)Phil Burrows (London), Giorgio Chiarelli (Pisa), Francois le Diberder (Paris), Michael Kobel (Bonn)

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 LHCvia 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 EuropeThe 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)

Linear Collider Workshop LCWS04, ParisExhibition in Palais de la Decouverte (19 - 24 April) ground floor http://www.palais-decouverte.fr/virtuel/planpalais.htmThe Material will be of two types:

for the public at large to explain how HEP-things workfor the Politics and Media and the public to show that

1) HEP-LC is cutting-edge science and technology2) a considerable amount of work has already been done3) the project is well within the current trends in HEP+Cosmology4) 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 seatsparticipants from LCWS04 will join, and meet the public.

one LC talkone Astroparticle talkone 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

Euro Science Open Forum 2004, www.esof2004.orgStockholm, 25.-28.8.2004

Aim:highlight science in Europe. Longer powerpoint presentationpresent 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)
