报告简介:
CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) is a study for a future electron-positron collider that would allow physicists to explore a new energy region beyond the capabilities of today's particle accelerators. It would provide significant fundamental physics information even beyond that available from the LHC and a lower-energy linear e+/e- collider, as a result of its unique combination of high energy and experimental precision.
Within the framework of a world-wide collaboration on Linear Colliders, the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) study aims at a center-of-mass energy range for electron-positron collisions of 0.5 to 5 TeV, optimised for a nominal center-of-mass energy of 3 TeV (3 TeV CLIC). In order to reach this energy in a realistic and cost efficient scenario, the accelerating gradient has to be very high - CLIC aims at an acceleration of 100 MV/m. Superconducting technology being fundamentally limited to lower gradients, only room temperature travelling wave structures at high frequency (12 GHz) are likely to achieve this gradient.

报告人简介:
Steinar Stapnes is Linear Collider Study Leader at CERN, with responsibilities for the CLIC and ILC research activities at the laboratory, accelerator as well as detector/physics studies. The dominating part of these activities is directed towards the CLIC accelerator developments.
He holds a professorship at University of Oslo and have had a leading roles in the ATLAS experiment construction in the period 1999-2008. He was leader of the CERN Council Strategy Secretariat in the period 2008-2010, being responsible for the follow up and Implementation of the European Strategy for Particle Physics, before moving on to Linear Collider activities in 2010-11.
