Below is a primer of plenary sessions:

Monday 6/10 plenaries:• Welcome

• Local welcome, intro by LCB and LCC director• Lower-energy session

• ILC parameters, CEPC China, LCWS14 workshop plans for ILC• Higher-energy session

• CLIC Higgs studies, LHC physics status• Energy frontier

• Energy frontier projects, BSM physics presentation Accelerator plenary Physics/detector plenary

Other plenary sessions during the week• ILC running scenarios Special accelerator plenary Detector optimisation plenary

CLIC detector optimisationVery active working group ! http://indico.cern.ch/category/5575/

Aiming for a new CLIC detector model by the end of this year.

Take part !

Fundamental studies being done and decisions being taken

For example, current working hypotheses:• Silicon-based tracker• Tracker radius ~1.5 m, tracker half-length 2.35 m• Vertex barrel/disks with 3 double-layers, additional very forward disks• Short (~1.4 m) endcap yoke with endcap coils for field return

Many more choices to be made, e.g.:• ECAL layout (dedicated meeting on August 7th)• Tungsten or steel absorbers in HCAL ?• Resulting coil radius and field• QD0 inside or outside the detector• ……

software development

LC software development => active area

• Significant progress being made with DD4hep• Ongoing discussions/work concerning

• DD4hep link to simulation• Tracking solutions to be used with the new CLIC detector model

Ongoing discussions with FCC software development team

• FCC will (most likely) use DD4hep• DD4hep link to simulation could be developed for both FCC and LC• LCIO event data model is being considered• DIRAC grid tool is being considered• The use of Whizard for e+e- was also discussed

CLICdp talks

We are looking for a CLICdp speaker at PANIC, DESY, August 25-29 Accepted talks:

Higgs physics at CLICProspects for Beyond Standard Model Physics at CLIC

See CLICdp speakers committee, list of conferences/workshops:https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CLIC/UpcomingConferences

CLICdp speakers committee will soon start nominating plenary speakers and collecting abstracts for parallel talks at LCWS14
