New Light Weakly Coupled Particles Conveners Rouven Essig, John Jaros, William Wester Community Summer Study 2013 Minneapolis July 31, 2013
Goals at Snowmass • Edit and refine NLWCP subgroup report Update physics cases, current constraints, plans for future experimentsDraft exists: http://www.snowmass2013.org/tiki-download_file.php?fileId=262Comments welcome! • Add last pieces to the Report. We’ll hear talks on… Motivations to expand searches over the next decade New ideas for experiments How much can experiments improve? How large a region of parameter space can we search? What new technologies and facilities are needed for future searches? • Make our case to the whole HEP community at the NLWCP Colloquium Friday, August 2. Talks from Rouven, William and Nima Arkani Hamed Panel Discussion: Answers to Tough QuestionsWe’ll review talks and discuss making our case Thursday
