Dear All, At the Snowmass Instrumentation Frontier workshop at Boulder last week, we had a very good discussion about connecting key physics topics for phase II with key instrumentation topics. As examples: higgs coupling sensitivity depending on triggering (low pT inclusive lepton triggers, tau triggers etc) or Vector boson scattering and forward tracking / b tagging (eg. to veto huge top background) etc. Uli Heintz is coordinating this from the instrumentation side and so we can build bridges between EF and Instrumentation frontier which can turn into nice "stories" in the Snowmass document. Marcel Demarteau and Ron Lipton are on board. Please see message from Uli below and send your comments. regards, Ashutosh Begin forwarded message: > From: Ulrich Heintz <[log in to unmask]> > Subject: questions for EF > Date: April 21, 2013 3:29:01 PM EDT > To: Andy White <[log in to unmask]>, Ashutosh Kotwal <[log in to unmask]>, "Bill Cooper" <[log in to unmask]>, Bob Wagner <[log in to unmask]>, Carl Haber <[log in to unmask]>, Chris Kenney <[log in to unmask]>, "Daniella Bortoletto" <[log in to unmask]>, David Christian <[log in to unmask]>, David Lynn <[log in to unmask]>, Dong Su <[log in to unmask]>, Gerald Eigen <[log in to unmask]>, Gino Bolla <[log in to unmask]>, Gregory Deptuch <[log in to unmask]>, Hal Evans <[log in to unmask]>, Henrik von der Lippe <[log in to unmask]>, Jake Anderson <[log in to unmask]>, Jeremiah Mans <[log in to unmask]>, Jim Alexander <[log in to unmask]>, Julia Thom <[log in to unmask]>, Marco Battaglia <[log in to unmask]>, Marcus Hohlmann <[log in to unmask]>, Mike Huffner <[log in to unmask]>, Norman Graf <[log in to unmask]>, Pawel Nadel-Turonski <[log in to unmask]>, Ronald Lipton <[log in to unmask]>, Satish Dhawan <[log in to unmask]>, Steve Magill <[log in to unmask]>, Steve Nahn <[log in to unmask]>, Steve Wagner <[log in to unmask]>, Ted Liu <[log in to unmask]>, "Wesley H.

At the meeting last week at Boulder we discussed sending some questions to the energy frontier group in order to connect physics topics to instrumentation needs. > > I showed my first draft of these at the summery session at Boulder and they are included below. Please take a look at these and send me your comments, additions, etc. I would like to send these out by the end of the week. So it would be great to get comments in the next couple of days. > > best regards, > > Ulrich > > Questions from Instrumentation to Energy Frontier: > > • can you identify benchmark physics goals that push the technology of current detectors? > • which aspects of detector performance are critical for each of these? > • do you know how much the physics reach changes as certain detector properties are varied? > • what is the performance that you are assuming for simulations? > • what improvements in the detector would be transformational for the physics reach? > • how important is the forward region? > • how important is high b-tagging efficiency at low pT/at high pT? > • what are the requirements for triggers? ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the SNOWMASS-EF list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=SNOWMASS-EF&A=1
