the most precise map of
the fluctuations of the CMB, to measure
inflation.
SNLS, SDSS-III ,through the
measurement of distant supernova,

Universe at High Energy
______________________________________________
FERMI (since 2008) and HESS (since 2004) have
multiplied by 10 the number of detected violent
AUGER (in 2008) has demonstrated the
sources at GeV and at TeV scales. They have
existence of a cut in the energy spectrum
demonstrated the existence of cosmic accelerators,
of CR at HE, and their anisotropy
approaching the résolution de l’enigma of the origin
of cosmic rays
Virgo since 2008 at the best
sensitivity level in the world
ANTARES the largest sensitivity for
observing the southern hemisphere
(since 2008). The largest
infrastructure in the world in the
very deep sea
A sustained spatial program

______________________________________________
Most of the projects common to IN2P3 and IRFU within strong
international collaborations.
LHC (~350 permanent research staff)
ATLAS , CMS and ALICE (IN2P3 + IRFU)
LHCb (IN2P3)
 Strong contribution to construction
and data analysis (Higgs, top,…)
 R&D for phase-I upgrade
Particle physics (II)
______________________________________________
Finishing analysis in DZero (Higgs, top, W mass), BaBar and H1
Contribution to neutron electrical dipolar moment (nEDM at PSI,
IN2P3) and antimatter gravitity at CERN (Aegis/IN2P3 and Gbar/IRFU)
being discussed
Neutrinos :
Opera (IN2P3) : tau neutrino appearance…
data taking in 2012
Double Chooz and T2K (IN2P3 + IRFU) : sin(13)…
near detector
SuperNemo@LSM : neutrinoless double beta decay
first prototype next year ?
new cavern ?
Particle physics (III)
______________________________________________
Detectors developments for a future Linear collider (LC)
- Calorimeters (IN2P3)
- Pixel and CMOS detectors (IN2P3+IRFU)
- Microelectronics (IN2P3+IRFU)
- Micro-pattern gas detectors (IN2P3+IRFU)
Computing :
CC-IN2P3 @Lyon
Grid: T1 + 8 T2 for LHC
Important effort to develop an academic cloud infrastructure
More general effort on “Big Data”
ongoing prospective (I)
______________________________________________
First priority is the LHC : data taking + analysis + phase I upgrade (IN2P3
scientific council in June 2012 to define contributions). High lumi
(>2022) or High energy for LHC was discussed and strongly depends
on new physics observed or not in 13 TeV running
Linear collider (LC):
Quite some discussions about a “Fast-Track LC (in Japan)” starting at
230 GeV (if Higgs discovered at LHC at 125 GeV !) and upgradable at
500 GeV) or a higher energy (longer term) few-TeV project.
 Consensus seems to appear to participate and push for such a FastTrack LC project : use Higgs discovery opportunity to convince ministry
 LC town Hall meeting of May 16th at Paris (ECFA/LC input to
European Strategy Group)
ongoing prospective (II)
______________________________________________
Precision measurement experiments (nEDM, Aegis, Gbar, Super B) :
- Neither clear nor strong conclusion
- Small community….
Neutrinos :
Interest to participate to a long baseline neutrino project in Europe
A strategic vision has here to be set :
-
might need to choose between long baseline or neutrinoless
project…
- LSM host lab for new generation neutrino experiment (CP violation)
or dark matter detector ?  LSM extension

Conclusion
______________________________________________
Many appealing scientific projects
some very large, some of smaller size
Future must be prepared now
2012 is a year for prospective at the French level
at the European level
Some important instability in the institution
specific financial effort (driven by international jury)
large scientific infrastructures
decrease in the budget distributed by IN2P3
International partnerships are an important asset for IN2P3
