From SLAC Today: ILC to Support Two Complementary Detectors
Over the last year, the ILC Global Design Effort (GDE) has concentrated on developing a complete design and cost estimate for the ILC. These designs and numbers will be released in early 2007 as part of the ILC Reference Design Report. For this report, numerous design changes have been adopted to take advantage of recent R&D results and to make the project more affordable, and more changes are yet to come.

On the Road to Developing
U.S.-Indian ILC Collaboration
Indus-II Accelerator at Raja Rammana Center of Advanced Technologies (In View RF Cavities). |
At the National Academies of Sciences' US-India Conference in June 2006, U.S. Secretary of Energy Samuel Bodman delivered a speech about the benefits of US-Indian collaboration on science and technology. Referencing the bilateral Agreement on Science and Technology, signed by the U.S. and India in October 2005 to establish a framework for the exchange of ideas, information, skills and technologies, Bodman encouraged collaboration between the two countries on the proposed International Linear Collider.

From Fermilab Today: Planning for ILC Success Through Shared Databases
Participants in the five-day course at Fermilab. From left: Don Mitchell, FNAL; Chuck Grimm, FNAL; Serena Barbanotti, INFN Milan; Maurizio Massa, INFN Pisa; Paolo Pierini, INFN Milan; Andrea Basti, INFN Pisa; Nicola Panzeri, INFN Milan; Norio Higashi, KEK; and Norihito Ohuchi, KEK. |
Designing, building and operating the ILC will require an unprecedented level of world-wide collaboration. To make this possible, collaborators will use a shared Electronic Data Management System. This will allow them to contribute, extract and edit live data in real time. A pilot EDMS, set up by DESY in Hamburg, is already in use by the ILC cryomodule design team. Its success will provide a model for other ILC databases.

Cost Optimisation of Wigglers
for the ILC Damping Rings
Today's issue features a Director's Corner from Gerry Dugan, GDE Americas Regional Director.
Jeremy Urban in the CESR tunnel

One of the key technical components of the ILC damping rings is the wiggler magnet, a device consisting essentially of a series of dipole magnets of alternating polarity. Wigglers are used to increase the synchrotron radiation damping rate, allowing the required emittance reduction to be achieved during the 200 ms (millisecond) that each bunch train is stored in the damping ring.
