4Purpose
- The primary purpose of ACFA shall be to
strengthen regional collaboration in
accelerator-based science. In particular, ACFA
seeks cooperative ways - to facilitate efficient utilization of existing
human and material resources, - to bring up accelerator scientists of the next
generation, and - to encourage future accelerator projects in Asia
and to make recommendations for them to
governments.
5Guidelines
- ACFA is open to any active region in Asia, which
is willing to contribute to the advancement of
accelerator-based science. - ACFA is not intended to displace or supersede any
existing organization. - ACFA will closely cooperate with ICFA
(International Committee for Future
Accelerators).

- 1st Statement on the ee- Linear Collider
- issued at the Second Plenary ACFA Meeting.

15ACFA and ILC
- ACFA strives to get the LC in Asia
- Two ACFA statements were issued in 1997 and 2001
and 3rd one was issued in November 2004 - Approach all Asian governments convince them to
participate actively in LC - Identify the RD capabilities and industrial
strength to optimize the cost for LC - Training of Asian manpower through workshops,
schools, conferences exchange of scientists - There will be vast opportunities for each country
to contribute to the success of LC. - ALCSC(ACFA Linear Collider Steering Committee,
Chair W. Namkung) has been formed in 2002
162nd ACFA Statement on ee- Linear Collider in 2001
- Now the strategy on the LC project becomes
clearer and the community matured, the time is
ripe to define new steps towards the realization
of the LC - The ee- LC must start operation when the high
luminosity run of LHC starts around 2009-2010.
The center of mass energy of the LC should be
250-500 GeV where urgent and critical physics is
expected. Including its energy upgrade to higher
than 1 TeV, the project as a whole is foreseen to
evolve for a quarter of a century.
17- ACFA strongly endorses the plan to construct such
a collider in the Asian-Pacific region with Japan
as the host, and urges KEK to take initiative to
investigate possible and practical form of
globalization for the construction, commissioning
and operation of the collider. - ACFA urges the Japanese Government to arrange a
preparatory budget for KEK to pursue an
engineering design of the collider, to study site
and civil engineering, as well as to investigate
the process for the globalization.
183rd ACFA Statement on ee- Linear Collider in
Nov. 2004 in Kolkata, India
- ACFA welcomes the truly international nature of
the decision on technology for the ILC. This sets
the stage for international collaboration in the
design efforts for the ILC. - ACFA reaffirms that the ILC, the next major
high-energy physics project, should be realized
by world-wide efforts. In such International
collaboration, ACFA and scientists in ACFA
countries should play crucial and leading roles.
19- ACFA reconfirms the importance of hosting ILC in
Asia, which will make high energy physics and
accelerator science truly global. - ACFA urges the Japanese Government to fully
support the efforts of KEK and Japanese
scientists to host the ILC in Japan. - ACFA reconfirms that KEK is the best suited
institute for hosting the Central Team of GDI.
20- ACFA urges KEK to establish the Asian Regional
Center for RD in GDI and encourages other Asian
countries to actively participate in GDI. - With ILC entering this important phase, ACFA
urges Governments of Asian countries to support
participation of their scientists in GDI.
21KEKs Atitude towards ILCOctober 2004
- KEK will actively take part in the RD of the ILC
to investigate its feasibility. (KEK is trying to
change its RD effort from warm to clod
technology) - KEK actively invites GDI Central Team to KEK, and
makes efforts so that Japanese researchers can
have important posts in GDI including its
Director. - By having the GDI Asian Regional Team at KEK, KEK
manages to form an Asia collaboration scheme
under the leadership of KEK - The Director General of KEK will support the
activities of researchers who strive to have the
ILC located in Japan.

23Summary
24Present Status of Accelerator Science and High
Energy Physics in Asia
- We have witnessed rapid progresses in accelerator
sciences and high-energy phyics in Asian region
these years. - Asian accelerator sciences have caught up those
of fore-runners, namely, European and American. - There still remains wide difference within Asian
region in terms of accelerator sciences
therefore, we need to strengthen collaborations
among Asian countries.
25ILC and ASIA
- Asia has expertise which can be directed to
develop SCRF technology - Asia has large trained manpower to undertake
construction of ILC - Cost of ILC will be substantially reduced if-
ILC is built in Asia- Asian Countries
participate in a big way
26ACFA and ILC
- Strive to get the ILC in Asia
- Approach all Asian Government convince them to
participate actively in ILC - Identify the RD capabilities and industrial
strength to optimize the cost and time for ILC - Training of Asian manpower through workshops,
schools, conferences exchange of scientists.
27Challenges for Asia
- Get ILC in Asia
- Develop rapidly SCRF Technology
- Train sufficient manpower in SCRF Technology
- Transfer SCRF Technology to Industries
- Active regional Collaboration
- Unified approach to Asian participation in ILC
28Future
- Potentiality of the Asian world is the largest in
the world and I believe that in a decade or two
this region will have the largest power in the
world, in economy, science, etc. - Asia deserves to be the host of ILC. ACFA has
strongly endorsed the LC in the Asian region. We
sincerely hope that on the basis of collaboration
among Asian countries that ILC will be built in
Asia.
