Case Studies at CERN The Impacts of Large Research Infrastructures on Economic Innovation and on Society: Case Studies at CERN The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is a unique forum where governments work together to address the economic, social and environmental challenges of globalisation. The OECD is also at the forefront of efforts to understand and to help governments respond to new developments and concerns, such as corporate governance, the information economy and the challenges of an ageing population. The Organisation provides a setting where governments can compare policy experiences, seek answers to common problems, identify good practice and work to co- ordinate domestic and international policies. The OECD member countries are: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States. The European Union takes part in the work of the OECD. The Global Science Forum (GSF) is a venue for consultations among senior science policy officials of the OECD member and partner countries on matters relating to scientific research. The Forum’s activities produce findings and recommendations for actions by governments, international organisations, and the scientific community. The Forum serves its member delegations by exploring opportunities for new or enhanced international co-operation in selected scientific areas; by defining international frameworks for national or regional science policy decisions; and by addressing the scientific dimensions of issues of social concern. The Forum’s reports are available at www.oecd.org/sti/gsf. The GSF staff are based at OECD headquarters in Paris, and can be contacted at [email protected]. © OECD 2014 Cover photo © CERN Requests for permission to reproduce or translate all or part of this work should be addressed to: [email protected]. 3 FOREWORD Since the creation of the OECD Megascience Forum in 1992, which was renamed the Global Science Forum (GSF) in 1999 after the broadening of its mandate, research infrastructures have been a major topic for analysis and discussion at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Following a publication on “Large Research Infrastructures”, which dealt with the challenges associated with launching and managing large single-site facilities, this new report addresses the potential economic and societal impacts of international research facilities, using case studies from one of the largest global research infrastructures: the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN). The GSF undertook this study following an initial approach by CERN, which was interested in having an external perspective that could serve as a basis for further optimising the organisation’s policies and procedures as well as being of value to CERN’s member states. The GSF approach, although based on the analysis of CERN’s achievements and policies, aimed to shed light on generic issues that could be applicable more broadly to international research infrastructures. This report is based on case studies that were carried out using two sources of information: papers/articles and interviews, which were carried out by Dr Stefan Michalowski from the GSF Secretariat with nearly fifty key individuals. These included staff at CERN, experts from outside of CERN and current or former employees of companies that manufactured some of CERN’s major equipment. The GSF’s objective was not to carry out an exhaustive analysis but rather to derive useful lessons and practices for administrators, funding agencies and policymakers, who are faced with challenging decisions about implementing new infrastructure projects and programmes (or about upgrading or terminating existing ones). We hope that this report will be informative and useful and we would be interested in receiving comments from readers. The GSF staff can be reached at [email protected]. The OECD Committee for Scientific and Technological Policy approved this report in June 2014.

    CERNMarch/April 2021 cerncourier.com COURIERReporting on international high-energy physics WELCOME CERN Courier – digital edition Welcome to the digital edition of the March/April 2021 issue of CERN Courier. Hadron colliders have contributed to a golden era of discovery in high-energy physics, hosting experiments that have enabled physicists to unearth the cornerstones of the Standard Model. This success story began 50 years ago with CERN’s Intersecting Storage Rings (featured on the cover of this issue) and culminated in the Large Hadron Collider (p38) – which has spawned thousands of papers in its first 10 years of operations alone (p47). It also bodes well for a potential future circular collider at CERN operating at a centre-of-mass energy of at least 100 TeV, a feasibility study for which is now in full swing. Even hadron colliders have their limits, however. To explore possible new physics at the highest energy scales, physicists are mounting a series of experiments to search for very weakly interacting “slim” particles that arise from extensions in the Standard Model (p25). Also celebrating a golden anniversary this year is the Institute for Nuclear Research in Moscow (p33), while, elsewhere in this issue: quantum sensors HADRON COLLIDERS target gravitational waves (p10); X-rays go behind the scenes of supernova 50 years of discovery 1987A (p12); a high-performance computing collaboration forms to handle the big-physics data onslaught (p22); Steven Weinberg talks about his latest work (p51); and much more.

  • A Time of Great Growth
    Newsletter | Spring 2019 A Time of Great Growth Heartfelt greetings from the UC Riverside Department of Physics and Astronomy. This is our annual newsletter, sent out each Spring to stay connected with our former students, retired faculty, and friends in the wider community. The Department continues to grow, not merely in size but also in stature and reputation. For the 2018-2019 academic year, we were pleased to welcome two new faculty: Professors Thomas Kuhlman and Barry Barish. Professor Kuhlman was previously on the faculty at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He joins our efforts in the emerging field of biophysics. His research lies in the quantitative imaging and theoretical modeling of biological systems. He works on genome dynamics, quantification of the activity of transposable elements in living cells, and applications to the engineering of genome editing. Professor Barry Barish, who joins us from Caltech, is the winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics. He brings great prestige to our Department. Along with Professor Richard Schrock of the Department of Chemistry, who also joined UCR in 2018, UCR now has two Nobel Prize winners on its faculty. Professor Barish is an expert on the detection and physics of gravitational waves. He has been one of the key figures in the conception, construction, and operation of the LIGO detector, where gravitational waves were first discovered in 2015, and which led to his Nobel Prize. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the winner of many other prestigious awards. The discovery of gravitational waves is one of the most exciting developments in physics so far this century.

  • Quantum Mechanics Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD)
    Quantum Mechanics_quantum chromodynamics (QCD) In theoretical physics, quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is a theory ofstrong interactions, a fundamental forcedescribing the interactions between quarksand gluons which make up hadrons such as the proton, neutron and pion. QCD is a type of Quantum field theory called a non- abelian gauge theory with symmetry group SU(3). The QCD analog of electric charge is a property called 'color'. Gluons are the force carrier of the theory, like photons are for the electromagnetic force in quantum electrodynamics. The theory is an important part of the Standard Model of Particle physics. A huge body of experimental evidence for QCD has been gathered over the years. QCD enjoys two peculiar properties: Confinement, which means that the force between quarks does not diminish as they are separated. Because of this, when you do split the quark the energy is enough to create another quark thus creating another quark pair; they are forever bound into hadrons such as theproton and the neutron or the pion and kaon. Although analytically unproven, confinement is widely believed to be true because it explains the consistent failure of free quark searches, and it is easy to demonstrate in lattice QCD. Asymptotic freedom, which means that in very high-energy reactions, quarks and gluons interact very weakly creating a quark–gluon plasma. This prediction of QCD was first discovered in the early 1970s by David Politzer and by Frank Wilczek and David Gross. For this work they were awarded the 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics. There is no known phase-transition line separating these two properties; confinement is dominant in low-energy scales but, as energy increases, asymptotic freedom becomes dominant.

The process is then reversed to return in nuclear interactions in that energy range. We took it to the normal lattice. In some cases (elastic as initial conditions, that we would employ the emer- scattering), the beam is kept large, to obtain good gent technology of superconducting magnets, and that angular resolution. What we have done is to design a we would employ the AGS as the injector, hence requir- "catalog" of intersecting regions, in cooperation with ing the acceleration of the full stored beam to final experimentalists, to fit the needs of particular exper- energies in the storage device.
