Poštovane koleginice i kolege,


Pozivamo vas na predavanje Kenneth Long-a, profesora na Imperialnom 
koledžu u Londonu i rukovodioca MICE (Muon Ionisation Cooling 
Experiment) kolaboracije,

koje će se održati u utorak 27. juna 2017. godine u 18.00 sati u 
Svečanoj sali Srpske akademije nauka i umetnosti, Knez Mihailova 35/II,

sa temom:

**CILJEVI I ZNAČAJ MICE EXPERIMENTA**

i sa radnim naslovom:

**MUON, NEUTRINOS and MICE**

*Rezime:*
The study of the neutrino is the study of physics beyond the Standard 
Model. We know that neutrinos have mass and that neutrino flavour 
oscillates as neutrinos propagate through space and time. Some 
measurements can be interpreted as hints for new particles known as 
sterile neutrinos. It is conceivable that the matter-antimatter (CP) 
symmetry may be violated by neutrino oscillations. To make this profound 
discovery will require measurements of exquisite precision. 
Accelerator-based neutrino sources are central to the future programme 
and advances in accelerator technique are essential.
I will review the experiments being planned to take the study of 
neutrino oscillations forward and summarise the programme of measurement 
required to control systematic uncertainties. The potential of muon 
beams of low emittance to provide the basis for the intense, 
well-characterised neutrino beams necessary to elucidate the physics of 
flavour will then be described. Muon beams also have the potential to 
deliver lepton-anti-lepton collisions at energies of up to several TeV. 
I will discuss the R&D programme that is required and the contribution 
that will be made by the International Muon Ionization Cooling 
Experiment (MICE) and comment on the possible development of the programme.

* Biografija Prof. Kenneth Long-a:*
Ken Long is Professor of Experimental Particle Physics at Imperial 
College London. Having studied the hadronic final states produced in 
deep inelastic muon-proton scattering as a graduate student at Oxford, 
he went to CERN in 1985 to work on the UA1 experiment.
Returning to the UK in 1987, he joined the ZEUS experiment at DESY in 
Hamburg, contributing to the design and construction of the experiment, 
the development of the reconstruction and simulation software, the 
measurement of the structure of both the proton and the photon and 
making detailed studies of the electroweak interaction.
Fascinated by the mysteries hinted at by the discovery of neutrino 
oscillations at the turn of the century, he played a leading role in the 
development of the techniques required to produce intense beams of 
high-energy neutrinos on an industrial scale at the Neutrino Factory.
In this context he chairs the International Design Study for the 
Neutrino Factory (the IDS-NF), is the UK PI for the international Muon 
Ionization Cooling Experiment that is under construction at the 
Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and is co-chair of the national and 
Anglo-American Proton Accelerators for Science and Innovation (PASI) 
collaborations.


Srdačan pozdrav,
Saradnici IFa na MICE eksperimentu
