Hasan Padamsee is a physicist at Fermilab, USA. Watch him explain why he thinks whe should build the ILC now! The Linear Collider Collaboration is actively reaching out to its collaborators and supporters to participate in the #mylinearcollider video campaign. The series of short, informal videos (435 posted online to date) is posted on our […]
They want the ILC! #mylinearcollider
IFIC Spanish group in Valencia shares it support to the ILC project
Video: ©2014 IFIC This week we share with you the message from members of the Institute of Corpuscular Physics (Instituto de Física Corpuscular, IFIC) in Valencia, Spain. The Linear Collider Collaboration is actively reaching out to its collaborators and supporters to participate in a #mylinearcollider video campaign. The series of short, informal videos is posted […]
#mylinearcollider: keep them coming
The #mylinearcollider campaign continues and the communicators are recording and receiving many video messages like these – some fun, some serious, but all in support of the linear collider. Please see last issue for more information about the campaign and how to take part. If you’d rather not record a video message, why not take a picture of yourself? Atsushi […]
Understanding the ILC (hand-made animation inside)
A nice hand-made animation explains why a linear collider is needed to study the Higgs particle in great detail. Enjoy the description of the ILC machine “and then BOOM… science”. Credit: University of Texas-Arlington
2013 Nobel Prize in Physics announcement
The Nobel Prize in Physics 2013 was awarded jointly to François Englert and Peter W. Higgs “for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments […]
A guided tour around the CLIC test facility
http://cds.cern.ch/record/1599427 Video: CERN Ever wanted a personal tour around the CLIC Test Facility (CTF3)? Then this video is for you. You will follow and listen to Frank Tecker, responsible for CTF3 operations, who will guide you around the scaled-down version of the Compact Linear Collider acceleration principle.
Japanese candidate site for ILC will be announced on 23 August
The site evaluation committee of Japan, set up under the Japan ILC Strategy Council, will hold a press conference on 23 August 2013, at 9:30 a.m. Japan Standard Time (2.30 a.m. Central Europe and 7:30 p.m. Chicago) to announce the site selected as candidate site for the ILC. The ILC Strategy Council is an organisation established […]
Higgs: the story of the beginning
Hitoshi Murayama, Deputy Director of the Linear Collider Collaboration, explains the Higgs (in Japanese) in a three-part video series entitled “Universe and matter – the story of the beginning.” Part 1: “What is Higgs?” http://youtu.be/NeGEcn5Z0no Part 2: “Beyond the standard model” http://youtu.be/9mtYdvWspZ0 Part 3: “ILC-the future accelerator” http://youtu.be/XZqqc20Ju-Q The Japanese Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science […]
Good things come in threes
The last issue of LC NewsLine featured the two summary videos from the Asian and the European Technical Design Report handover event. Today we are proud to present part three: the summary of the Americas event that took place at Fermilab and culminated in the handing over of a gift-wrapped set of the report from […]
Worldwide video
The nature of a worldwide event happening consecutively in three regions of world is that people can only attend one of the three. So when celebrations ended in Japan and started in Europe, a video of the Asian event showed the participants in Europe what had happened during the day. Likewise, when Europe handed over […]
