Funding Agencies for the Linear Collider

| 10 November 2005 All of us recognize that the ILC will be too expensive to be undertaken by one country or even probably, by one region. For that reason, ground-breaking steps have been taken to internationalize the effort from the very beginning. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged: , ,

Cape Town

| 3 November 2005 Last week, I visited Cape Town, South Africa with Jonathan Dorfan, a native of Cape Town, and Shin-ichi Kurokawa. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged:

Positron Production

| 27 October 2005 Last week I discussed the recommendation from Snowmass for the baseline electron source to be used for the linear collider reference design, and today I will briefly discuss the more challenging positron source. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged:

Electron Source

| 20 October 2005 As I have discussed the past couple of weeks, the baseline ILC design will be guided and flow from a set of overall requirements. These requirements began from the science goals or requirements that were then translated into technical requirements for an accelerator. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged:

Global Group 1

| 13 October 2005 As I discussed in this column last week, the starting point for us in determining the baseline configuration for the ILC is a set of top-level physics parameters agreed to by the global community and contained in a report created by an international ICFA / ILCSC subcommittee dated September 30, 2003 and entitled, Parameters for the Linear Collider.

Parameters for the Linear Collider

| 6 October 2005 The main goal of the GDE this fall is to determine a baseline configuration for the ILC. This baseline will serve as the basis for the reference design process that we will carry out next year. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged:

Partnerships with Industry

| 29 September 2005 It is important for all of us who are developing the technologies, designs and plans for the ILC to recognize that the majority of the construction of the actual machine will be done by industry. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged: , ,

External Entities

| 22 September 2005 My job as GDE Director has been defined by the International Linear Collider Steering Committee in the Annex of the MOU between collaborating institutions. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged: , ,

15 September 2005

| 15 September 2005 Snowmass is now behind us and we are ready to begin to assess the outcomes from that successful workshop and to move on to our challenging next goal for this fall, to create a baseline configuration and alternatives for the ILC. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged: ,

EDMS

| 8 September 2005 EDMS. All of us in the ILC design community need to become familiar with this acronym. Category: Director's Corner | Tagged:
