    For the session on future facilities at DIS09 discussions were organized on DIS related measurements that can be expected in the near and medium - or perhaps far - future, including plans from JLab, CERN and FNAL fixed target experiments, possible measurements and detector upgrades at RHIC, as well as the plans for possible future electron proton/ion colliders such as the EIC and the LHeC project.Comment: Summary of the parallel sessions on future facilities and the plenary discussion session on possible future electron proton/ion colliders such as the EIC and the LHeC project at the Deep Inelastic Scattering workshop in Madrid, April 200

    Studying the Higgs Sector at the CLIC Multi-TeV e+e−e^+e^- Collider

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we review the role of a multi-TeV e+e−e^+e^- linear collider to complete the mapping of the Higgs boson profile and studying heavier bosons in extended scenarios with more than one Higgs doublet.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, to appear on the Proceedings of the Int. Workshop on Linear Colliders, LCWS2002, Jeju Island (Korea

    g_1 at low x and low Q^2 with Polarized ep Colliders

    Get PDF
    Measurements of g_1 at low x and low Q^2 are expected to provide a sensitive probe of the transition from Regge to perturbative QCD dynamics, offering a new testing ground for models of small x physics. We discuss the potential of polarized ep colliders (Polarized HERA and eRHIC) to investigate this physics --- varying Q^2 between 0.01 and 1 GeV^2 --- and to constrain the high-energy part of the Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov sum-rule for polarized photoproduction.Comment: 18 pages, 2 figure

    Physics Motivations for Future CERN Accelerators

    Get PDF
    We summarize the physics motivations for future accelerators at CERN. We argue that (a) a luminosity upgrade for the LHC could provide good physics return for a relatively modest capital investment, (b) CLIC would provide excellent long-term perspectives within many speculative scenarios for physics beyond the Standard Model, (c) a Very Large Hadron Collider could provide the first opportunity to explore the energy range up to about 30 TeV, (d) a neutrino factory based on a muon storage ring would provide an exciting and complementary scientific programme and a muon collider could be an interesting later option.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure, Prepared for the CERN Scientific Policy Committee in September 2001, and presented to the CERN Council in December 200

    Top production at hadron colliders

    Get PDF
    New results on top quark production are presented from four hadron collider experiments: CDF and D0 at the Tevatron, and ATLAS and CMS at the LHC. Cross-sections for single top and top pair production are discussed, as well as results on the top-antitop production asymmetry and searches for new physics including top quarks. The results are based on data samples of up to 5.4 fb − 1 for the Tevatron experiments and 1.1 fb − 1 for the LHC experiment

    Experimental Summary Moriond QCD 2008

    Get PDF
    2008 was a vintage year for the QCD Moriond meeting. Plenty of new data from Tevatron, HERA, B-Factories and other experiments have been reported. Some brand new results became public just before or even during the conference. A few new hints for New Physics came up in Winter 2008, but these await further scrutiny. This paper is the write-up of the experimental summary talk given at the Moriond QCD March meeting.Comment: 18 pages, 17 figure

    New Results from the CMS experiment

    Get PDF
    We'll present recent results from the CMS experiment on measurements, such as the total inelastic pp cross section, diffractive phenomena, leading particlespectra and energy flow in the forward region, measurements relevant for tuning of Monte Carlo programs used for cosmic rays studies. We'll also give a brief overview of the searches for new physics and the recent results on the discovery of a higgs-like particle with a mass of 125 GeV

    A study of di-jet measurements at a future photon collider is reported. The sensitivity to extract the gluon distribution is discussed. The results are compared with calculations for a linear e+e- collider.Comment: revised version with minor text changes and one figure replace

    Physics at Multi-TeV Linear Colliders

    The physics at an e+e- linear collider with a center of mass energy of 3-5 TeV is reviewed. The following topics are covered: experimental environment, Higgs physics, supersymmetry, fermion pair-production, WW scattering, extra dimensions, non-commutative theories, and black hole production.The physics at an e+e- linear collider with a center of mass energy of 3-5 TeV is reviewed.

    Contrasting Supersymmetry and Universal Extra Dimensions at Colliders

    Full text link
    We contrast the experimental signatures of low energy supersymmetry and the model of Universal Extra Dimensions and discuss various methods for their discrimination at hadron and lepton colliders. We study the discovery reach of hadron colliders for level 2 Kaluza-Klein modes, which would indicate the presence of extra dimensions. We also investigate the possibility to differentiate the spins of the superpartners and KK modes by means of the asymmetry method of Barr. We then review the methods for discriminating between the two scenarios at a high energy linear collider such as CLIC. We consider the processes of Kaluza-Klein muon pair production in universal extra dimensions in parallel to smuon pair production in supersymmetry. We find that the angular distributions of the final state muons, the energy spectrum of the radiative return photon and the total cross-section measurement are powerful discriminators between the two models.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures, to appear in the proceedings of the 2005 International Linear Collider Workshop, Stanford, US
