- REPORT OF THE SUB-GROUP ON ORGANISATIONAL MATTERS
- (SGOM)
- (http//committees.web.cern.ch/Committees/ECFA/CER
N03KalmusReport.pdf)
2SGOMTERMS OF REFERENCE
- From a European perspective, work out a possible
model or models for the design, construction and
operation of a linear collider as a truly
international project. - Develop a road map towards setting up the project
- The linear collider being considered is a 0.5
to 1.0 TeV electron-positron machine with latest
completion date of about 2014, i.e being
complementary to and having a large temporal
overlap with the LHC
3SGOM Terms of Reference (cont.)
- The following aspects should be considered
- Possible collaborative arrangements for the
design, construction and operation of a Linear
Collider - Administrative structures needed to realise the
above, including chains of responsibility - Obligations and responsibilities of partners,
including models for stable funding of the
construction and operation - Mechanisms for ensuring proper project and
budgetary control - Formal aspects of the collaborative arrangements,
including, but not limited to, questions of free
access, intellectual property etc.

6Recommendations (1)
- Nature of the Organisation
- a) The LC should be an international legal entity
established through intergovernmental agreement
as a time limited Project located at or near an
established laboratory. (Global Linear Collider
Project, (GLCP)) - The Project should be fully international from
the outset, with a well-defined relationship with
the nearby Host Laboratory which should provide
services and infrastructure. - All personnel employed by the GLCP, or seconded
to it and originating from the GLCP Member States
must have right of access and accompanying family
members must be granted visas. For personnel
employed by the GLCP or on long-term secondment
to the Project, work permits from the Host State
should be available to spouses/partners.
7Recommendations (2)
- The management has to be lean, effective and
transparent. The number of staff employed
directly by the GLCP should kept to a minimum.
Wherever possible staff should be seconded from
member states. - e) Governance of the GLCP should be organised on
a regional basis, namely three regions,
Americas, Asia and Europe, each with its
own Regional Board. - States should participate in the governance of
the GLCP through their Regional Board. - g) The GLCP should be governed by a Council
composed initially of fifteen voting members,
five appointed by each Regional Board. - h) In addition to the voting members, the Council
should have, in attendance, a representative from
the Host State, the Project Leader and the chairs
of its advisory committees.

9Recommendations (3)
- i) The Project Leader has the overview and
overall responsibility for the execution and
delivery of the GLCP, and is the interface
between the project and the Council. - j) All votes within the GLCP Council should have
the same weight, but for some issues safeguards
may need to be introduced. - k) An appropriate structure should be devised for
the GLCP giving the Project Leader the
responsibility and resources to bring the Project
to a successful conclusion. The structure should
include an oversight and monitoring system which
will ensure that the status of the GLCP is
transparent to the Member States at all times. - l) The composition and voting procedures in each
Regional Board is a matter for the states in that
region.
10Recommendations (6)
- GLCP Contributions
- o) The fairest and most justified financial model
would involve the Host State paying a premium of
about 25 of the construction cost (herein after
referred to as the Host State Premium), and the
balance being divided according to the GDP of the
Member States including the Host State. - p) The contributions of the Member States should
be organised on a regional basis under the
control of the Regional Boards, which would
monitor and adjust the contributions within the
region as necessary. In-kind contributions should
be by value according to a common costing model. - q) The minimum contribution of each member should
be proportional to its GDP. Contributions above
the GDP share by interested states that wish to
enhance the role of their institutes or industry
should be encouraged.
11Recommendations (7)
- r) Members should make cash and in-kind
contributions. They may choose to make their
contributions wholly in cash. - s) The majority of the components should be
provided as in-kind contributions valued
according to a common costing model - t) A significant cash element will be required to
allow the Project Leader the flexibility needed
to bring the project to a successful and timely
conclusion. - u) These in-kind contributions cover the design,
manufacture and long-term technical
responsibility for major components of the
project. Competent institutes,(Lead Laboratories)
of the Member States should take the
responsibility for these contributions. These
Lead Laboratories would be the key players in the
realisation of the GLCP. This distribution of
responsibility for major components is one of the
basic concepts of the Global Accelerator Network
(GAN)
12Recommendations (8)
- Next Steps
- v) A political and financial group at high level
drawn from all regions should be formed as soon
as possible to take forward the important
questions of site choice, funding of the detailed
design, cost sharing and form of the global
project including governance. We recommend that
Europe take the initiative to form this group. - w) The CERN Council should as soon as possible
organise a meeting to assess interest in the GLCP
among European states, inviting representatives
of potentially interest non-CERN-Member States. - x) Funding agencies from interested state should
establish a pre-GLCP Council. This body should be
dissolved when the GLCP is approved. - y) Once the technology and site have been chosen
a group should be set up to prepare the detailed
technical design and cost. This design group
would most likely contain many of the same people
as the ILCSC international design team which
would then be dissolved.

17Recommendations (4)
- European Regional Board
- m) All European Member States should be
represented on the European Regional Board, but
voting on this Board should be by a form of
qualified majority where each states vote is
proportional to its fractional GDP (or its
fractional contribution if the Board so decides).
18Recommendations (5)
- n) For Europe we consider there are two
options - Either
- All CERN member states participate in the GLCP as
part of the basic programme of CERN, with
association/cooperation agreements to allow
non-CERN European states to participate. In
this case the European Regional Board would be
the CERN Council. This role for the CERN Council
will require it to take a strategic overview of
European particle physics and modify its working
practices. We note that such a role is fully
consistent with the mandate of CERN as given in
the CERN convention. - or
- European contributions are made outside the
CERN programme. In this case consideration should
be given to using a super- or sub-set of the CERN
Council reconstituted as the European Regional
Board. - We have not reached a conclusion on a choice,
and we recommend wider consultation to explore
them further. -
19Recommendations (9)
- CERNs interaction with the GLCP
- z) We have considered carefully the relationship
between CERNLab and the GLCP. - CERNLab is and should remain Europes accelerator
laboratory. - CERNLab should remain the hub of a European
accelerator research network for future machines
beyond the GLCP. This network consists of
institutes in European nations with accelerator
RD expertise. - CERNLabs flagship facility the LHC will be
operating in parallel with the Linear Collider
(if it is constructed on the timetable envisaged)
for a substantial period and the LHC must be
fully supported, including possible upgrading. - The GLCP has to be seen as an integral part of
the European particle physics programme. Given
the likely cost of the GLCP and the high priority
given to the completion of the LHC, it is clear
that the total European particle physics budget
must be maintained, in real terms. - However, some additional resources will be
required before the end of the decade if the
completion date of about 2014 is to be met. - The CERNLab could be a Lead Laboratory.
