چکیده

The workshop "New Opportunities in the Physics Landscape at CERN" was held at CERN on 11-13 May 2009. The objective of the workshop was to explore new opportunities for physics at CERN using both existing accelerators and facilities and also accelerators foreseen for the upgrade of the LHC injection complex. The workshop was very well attended with a total of about 400 registered participants attending the three-day event with lively discussion periods during the formal sessions. The terms of reference of the workshop restricted discussion to experiments that could be done at CERN in the future and that could not be performed at other facilities. To this end, presentations on the status and future plans for facilities at other laboratories were scheduled. Moreover, the subject of neutrino physics was only treated in as much as its requirements for the future proton drivers at CERN. The Workshop, together with the additional scheduled events, will allow for the preparation of a CERN plan for the future non-LHC programme and also serve as an input to the world-wide coherent plan for non-LHC physics. We consider that the Workshop addressed adequately its aims that were put forth at the outset. In order to follow-up on any proposals, the SPSC and INTC Committees will review submitted proposals as per their normal procedures.

Small-x Physics with the ALICE experiment at the CERN-LHC

High energy p-p, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions at the CERN-LHC offer unprecedented opportunities for studying wide variety of physics at small Bjorken-x. Here we discuss capabilities of the ALICE experiment at the CERN-LHC for probing small-x QCD physics. A new forward electromagnetic calorimeter is being proposed as an ALICE upgrade to explore the small-x region in more detail.

Inclusive Rare B Decays

We review the present status of rare B decays, focusing on inclusive decay modes and their role in our search for new physics. We also briefly discuss direct CP violation in rare B decays and the rare kaon decays K → πνν̄ and KL → πνν̄, which offer complementary opportunities for precision flavour physics. Based on invited talks given at the 8th International Conference on Supersymmetries in Phys...

Highlights of the B-Physics Landscape

The exploration of the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model is one of the hot topics in particle physics of this decade. In these studies, which show a fruitful interplay between theory and experiment, the B-meson system offers a particularly interesting laboratory. After giving an introduction to quark-flavour mixing and CP violation as well as to the theoretical tools to deal with non-l...

Neutrino Scattering at High Energies

The construction of a high energy (∼100 GeV), sign-selected neutrino beam opens exciting opportunities to search for beyond-standard-model physics as well as to make valuable QCDmeasurements. Such a beam can be produced at the Tevatron or, potentially, at the CERN SPS+. The resulting physics would be unique and complementary to the present neutrino program. Here we use neutrino-electron scatter...

Planning and Design of Urban Sustainable Riparian Park (Case Study: Kan River- Valley)

One of the most important natural factors and critical facilities in Tehran is presence of AlborzSlopes River-Valleys which have been considered as natural tourist places for citizens since a long time ago, especiallyin hot summers and play effective role in creating a balance between manmade and natural spaces. Importance ofthese river-valleys as ecological pathways is enhanced with the increa...
