Dear Colleagues, It's time to make travel plans to attend the SiD Workshop, which will take place at SLAC on August 21-23, 2012, at SLAC. Please mark your calendar. The workshop website with more detailed information is coming soon. This workshop comes at a very propitious time. The discovery of the Higgs is imminent; the Japanese are expressing interest in hosting the ILC; work on CLIC is proceeding apace at CERN; and future plans for our field are being actively formulated in all three regions. One main purpose of the workshop will be to review the first draft of the SiD Detailed Baseline Design, the companion to the ILC Technical Report, which is due to be completed by December 2012. These documents will constitute an effective proposal to the world community for the ILC. The Workshop will also review the exciting physics developments from LHC, examine the case for the linear collider in light of these discoveries, and get updates on ILC and CLIC accelerator developments. In addition there will be reviews of ongoing detector R&D, reports on physics benchmark studies, discussion of future linear collider plans, and discussion of SiD's future beyond the DBD. Incidentally, just following the workshop, is SLAC's 50th Anniversary Celebration. See http://slac50.slac.stanford.edu/ We hope that all those interested in SiD and the recent developments with linear colliders can attend. Yours for SiD, John Jaros, Harry Weerts, and Andy White p.s. Sorry to hit your email more than once. Didn't want to miss you. #################################################################### To unsubscribe from the LCD-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=LCD-L&A=1 ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the LCD-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=LCD-L&A=1
