Three detector study groups have responded to the ILC Research Director's call for Expressions of Interest to submit Letters of Intent (LOI) to develop technical designs of ILC full experimental detectors:
The Letters of Intent (LOIs) for these three groups were submitted on 31 March 2009
The LOIs
 International Large Detector (pdf, 14MB) |
 Silicon Detector(pdf, 5MB) |
 4th Concept Detector(pdf, 13MB) |
The ILCSC had called earlier for these Letters of Intent to develop designs of ILC detectors. Subsequent to the ILCSC call in October, 2007, three changes were implemented:
- the due date for the LoIs was extended to March 31, 2009;
- the foreseen design efforts were reduced to technical designs;
- the selection of two was dropped in favor of validating each of the submissions. Recommendations on validation will be made to the Research Director by the International Detector Advisory Group (IDAG).
Letter of Intent guidelines and Benchmark Reaction specifications have been prepared.
The IDAG had also issued a set of additional requests. (November 2008)
