• Particle physics studies the fundamental building blocks of nature and their interactions.
• The 20th Century yielded:
an explosion of particles and interactions
a beautiful explanation in terms of symmetries
hints of deeper unity in nature.• We are on the verge of a revolution in understanding:
new forces and symmetries (super-symmetries ?)
complexity turned to simplicity
the origin of mass, unification of the forces
Einstein’s dream of deeper unification (Gravity?)

In high energy physics, the existence of at least one fundamental spin-0 `Higgs’ particle is required to consistently explain how particles have mass.
But what about Spin-0?
• The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerates counter-rotating bunches of protons in two 27km rings to 7 TeV and collides them at 4 interaction regions instrumented with 4 giant detector systems.
• Two `General Purpose’ Experiments are designed to find such Higgs particles over the full range of
masses (0.1 to 1TeV) allowed by current theoretical and experimental results.

The ATLAS experiment is 26m long, stands 20m high, weighs 7000 tons and has 200 million read-out channels.
One of these is ATLAS. It is being built by a collaboration of 2000 physicists from nearly 200 different institutes in 33 different countries including 13 UK universities.

The ATLAS central tracker is made of thousands of modules which each require several thousand connectionsThis double-sided module has 6144 connections and has 1536 read-out channels.The required connections are at pitch down to 240 per cm

Summary
Particle physics explores:
• the fundamental forces
An e+e- linear collider, building on the results from theLHC, will be uniquely placed for:
• Searches for new particles and forces
• Detailed tests of the origin of mass
• Precision measurements
explore the physics of ultra-high energy scales
the interface between gravity and particle physics?
• the fundamental building blocks of matter
The richness and diversity of this programmemake the combined potential of both a pp andan e+e- TeV collider vital for particle physics.
