Abstract:
Exploiting energy-recovery technology, an intense electron beam will be brought into collisions with a hadron beam from the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider, concurrently with the hadron-hadron collisions. The expected very high ep luminosity at 1.2 TeV of the center-mass-energy opens a vast and very unique research field, on top of exciting studies of the eA collisions. In this talk I will review the LHeC concept, the layout of a new ep/pp general purpose detector at IP2 and discuss its physics scope.
Important: This seminar is held in building D-11 room 104.
Please, be advised that due to the pandemic sanitary rules, we can absorbe 1 unvaccinated person per 10m^2, which means 4 people. As most of us are vaccinated, this should not be a problem. There will be a list of participants, stating that they were (or were not) vaccinated / are immune / with a valid covid test, where we will ask you to sign in upon arrival. Also, people with ANY symptoms of cold (either of running nose, cough, temperature, ...), not necessarily covid, are not allowed to participate according to the rules. We hope you understand. The situation is dynamic and we will of course keep you posted. At the moment we plan to proceed “live”, similary to teaching at AGH.
