HE-LHC: The High-Energy Large Hadron Collider: Future Circular Collider Conceptual Design Report Volume 4

In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics (EPPSU), the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched as a world-wide international collaboration hosted by CERN. The FCC study covered an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the corresponding 100 km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the physics opportunities of these two colliders, and a high-energy LHC, based on FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the third volume of the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the hadron collider FCC-hh. It summarizes the FCC-hh physics discovery opportunities, presents the FCC-hh accelerator design, performance reach, and staged operation plan, discusses the underlying technologies, the civil engineering and technical infrastructure, and also sketches a possible implementation. Combining ingredients from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high-luminosity LHC upgrade and adding novel technologies and approaches, the FCC-hh design aims at significantly extending the energy frontier to 100 TeV. Its unprecedented centre-of-mass collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, offering great direct sensitivity to new physics and discoveries

Learning to Teach Qualitative Researching: Perspectives for a Balancing Act in Times of Institutionalization and Neoliberal Study Conditions

In unserem Beitrag reflektieren wir zunächst die institutionellen, curricularen und hochschulpolitischen Transformationsprozesse qualitativer Methodenlehre, wie wir sie in unseren jeweiligen universitären Arbeitskontexten wahrnehmen. Anlass unserer Erkundungen war eine Serie von offenen Diskussionsund Intervisionssitzungen, in denen wir gemeinsam über Lehrkrisen, die wir in den letzten Jahren durchlaufen haben, aber auch über Momente des Gelingens resonanter Anverwandlung einer qualitativen Forschungshaltung nachgedacht haben. Wir greifen diesen Diskussionsprozess anhand einer Fallvignette aus der Lehrpraxis auf und arbeiten daran anknüpfend entlang von drei Grundprinzipien, die für den qualitativen Forschungszugang stilprägend sind (Offenheit, Zirkularität, Reflexivität), heraus, welchen Widersprüchlichkeiten und Herausforderungen qualitative Methodenlehre angesichts der gegenwärtigen Studienbedingungen begegnet. In der kritischen Reflexion dieser Verhältnisse loten wir Perspektiven für die Gratwanderung aus, die das Lehren und Lernen qualitativer Forschung darstellt.In our article we reflect the institutional, curricular, and policy-related transformations in the field of qualitative method training that we face in our respective academic environments. Our reflections originated in a series of open discussions and intervision meetings in which we collectively tackled teaching crises we went through in recent years, but also exchanged moments of successful and resonant engagement with students. We pick up on this discussion process by presenting a narrative account from one author’s experience. On this basis, we explore paradoxes and challenges for teaching and learning qualitative methods along three key principles – openness, circularity, and reflexivity – which define the qualitative research paradigm in the contemporary academic landscape. In our critical reflexion of this landscape, we look out for perspectives that might guide the risky ridge walk of teaching qualitative methods

A Sonic Time Projection Chamger: Sonified Particle Detection at CERN

Presented at the 16th International Conference on Auditory Display (ICAD2010) on June 9-15, 2010 in Washington, DC.In a short-term research project at CERN, an auditory display of elementary particle tracks has been developed. Data stems from simulations of the Time Projection Chamber (TPC) in ALICE experiment. Particle detection there is based on pattern recognition algorithms, but is still today double checked with visualization tools. The sonification works with cluster data of the TPC and was designed in analogy to the physics behind the measurement device. Thus it is possible to listen directly to the otherwise silent detector
