  • Fermilab is doing a 5-month feasibility study of a post-LHC hadron collider ("VLHC"), which would be sited in a large (240-km circumference) tunnel. An attractive addition to this plan would include an e+e- ring, with a CM energy in the range of 100 to perhaps 400 GeV. The physics would be limited to low-mass higgs, large-sample Z0 physics, and possibly a study of physics around the t-tbar threshold.
  • The goal of the Workshop, held on the campus of the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, was to prepare a short document in time to be useful at Snowmass.
  • The Workshop schedule may be found here, along with links to presentations as they become available.
  • Reference materials for the Workshop may be found here.
  • A list of particpants in the Workshop may be found here.

  • Organizers: Tim Morrison, IIT; Alvin Tollestrup, Fermilab; Gerry Dugan, Cornell; and Jim Norem, ANL.
