China’s roadmap for ILC international cooperation discussed

by Qian Pan

Last week, China’s second Linear Collider Workshop was held in Beijing to discuss how China can join in the pre-research and future construction of ILC project more constructively. A unanimous consensus was reached that China should play an active role in ILC international cooperation and key-technology R&D on accelerator and detectors should be further pushed ahead.

From symmetry magazine: Through a muon’s eyes

Alongside a story on muons—the short-lived cousins of the electron— symmetry magazine in its June 2012 issue features a silent movie about the Standard Model of Particle Physics. See quarks dancing, the Higgs entering the scene and get your own answer to the question mark at the end!

Director's Corner

Some highlights from the KILC12 workshop

by Barry Barish

The international KILC12 workshop was held in April in Korea to discuss topics varying from ILC physics to the nuts and bolts of the accelerator and detector designs for the International Linear Collider. This meeting came at a crucial time when the design decisions for the Technical Design Report was being finalised and the writing of the report being begun in earnest.

Cavities in the spotlight

Image: DESY

Some 100 cavity and photo enthusiasts came to DESY last Wednesday to hear Karsten Büßer talk about “Cool Runnings” and see the picture story of cavities in the making by science photographer Heiner Müller-Elsner. The exhibition will be on show at DESY for a few more weeks. Read more here.

CERN director says LHC will find God Particle by end of the year

The Large Hadron Collider is to be switched off at the end of the year to undergo a major upgrade, but scientists hope to have achieved one of the machine’s major goals by the time it does – proving the existence of the so called God Particle.
