From jmbyrd@lbl.gov Mon Nov 5 15:54:25 2012 Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2012 17:53:43 -0800 From: John Byrd To: Gary Varner , John Flanagan , William Barletta Subject: Notes from Snowmass HIEPB telecon @ Mon Nov 5 5pm - 6pm Frontier Capabilities: Group 4 High Intensity Electron and Photon Beams Notes from skype meeting 5 Nov 2012: Attendees: Gary Varner, John Flanagan, Bill Barletta, John Byrd 1)What additional accelerator capabilities at heavy flavor factories are required to realize the full range of physics opportunities? 2) What new or existing accelerator-based facilities provide opportunities for axion searches ? 3) What are new physics opportunities using high power electron and photon physics? 4) What accelerator and laser R&D is required to realize the physics opportunities in these areas? BB mentioned upcoming workshop on low energy polarized electron sources at MIT. Possible dark sector search. What capabilities does Super KEKB and Super-B need to address physics that they do not already plan to have? Tasks for next meeting: -propose names to address questions above -identify specific dates (or non-dates) for working group meeting -possible locations: East-west center, Hawaii, West Coast, KEK -come up with better questions! Proposed date for next skype talk is 27/28 Nov. --- John Byrd Program Head, Center for Beam Physics Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory MS 71R0259 Berkeley CA 94720 USA phone:(510)486-6329|cell:(510)387-3581 email:JMByrd@lbl.gov
