Recommendations on New Projects
The PAC recommends approval of the project “Astrophysical Studies in the NUCLEON space experiment” for execution until the end of 2008.
The PAC recommends approval of the opening of the new theme “Study of e+e- interactions, linear collider physics and detector” for execution until 2008.
The PAC looks forward to receiving additional information on the main research directions for the FAIR project (e.g. PAX) at a future meeting
3
Recommendations on Current Experiments
The PAC appreciates the ongoing and planned studies at the LHC, RHIC, and the Tevatron, and looks forward to their realization with active participation from JINR physicists.
The PAC looks forward to a report at its next meeting to a report concerning the software and computing activities being actively carried out to allow JINR scientists to produce first scientific results at the time of LHC start-up
The PAC recommends BLTP theoreticians to be more actively involved in the preparations of the research programmes planned at the LHC.

The field of special interest of Dubna group is study of Drell-Yanprocesses in the large invariant mass region
The idea is to test Standard Model calculations for muon pairsProduction up to the highest reachable invariant masses
Many theoretical predictions suggest possible violation of the SM
Unique opportunity to test the SM up to 3-5 TeV mass region (Tevatron region is limited only of 0.8 TeV)
Studt facilitated by excellent performance of CMS Muon system
Possibility of strong theoretical support of this research program st JINR

At the stage of data taking and physics analysis JINR CMS project will be organized as a joint effort of several groups from LPP, LHE, LPP and LIT distributed following task forces:
Data taking and technical support group (LPP and LHC) Input data control and processing (production) (P.Moissenz + 4,LPP) Data processing (V.Korenkov + 5, LIT) Physics analysis (S.Shmatov + 5, LPP) Theoretical support (O.Teryaev, D.Bardin, BLTP)
These groups already exist, most physicists are below 35

Physical process simulations and new research proposals of the ATLAS-JINR group were discussed at the both Workshops on the ATLAS physical program(Dubna (April and November, 2004). The main topics are the following:
Search for the SM Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector via the process H → 4μ (G.Chelkov, I.Boiko, K.Nikolaev, R.Sadikov)
Other Dubna proposals are to utilize the ATLAS large-mass Higgs discovery potential by means of reactions H→2W→2l, or H→2W→l jj (Yu.Kulchitsky) and H→2Z→2l , or H→2Z→lljj (V.Vinogradov) on the basis of the already simulated ATLAS DC1 and DC2 data. The proposals rely on the Higgs boson production via the Vector Boson Fusion mechanism (the two accompanied forward jets allows very good background reduction) and on the maximal Higgs boson decay rates into WW- or ZZ-pair at MHIGGS = 400 -- 1000 GeV.

CMS Computing at JINR
Unprecedented LHC Research program can not be carried out with conventional even most advanced computing facilities
1 CMS event = 1 MB100-200 events will recorded in 1 sec ~ 21015 B/year (2 PetaB/year)
To support LHC Research programme the generation of computing network organization based on GRID concept is under development (LCG project)

In JINR this activity has been started on the basis of LIT since almost the very beginning of the CMS project
JINR is on of the founder of RDMS LHC Regional Computer Center
At present JINR computer facilities is very well integrated in the LCG project
