• We recommend that the present efforts, mainly focused in the Southern Pierre Auger Observatory with a 50% European contribution, be pursued with vigor.
• We recommend that European groups play a significant role to establish the scientific case, and, after its consolidation, make a significant contribution to the design and construction of a Northern Auger Observatory.
• The development of novel cost effective techniques with large aperture and particle identification would provide a useful redundancy to the present detectors. One such approach could be the radio detection of air showers as pursued by the LOPES (later LOFAR) and CODALEMA collaborations. We recommend support of R&D for these new technologies.
• We appreciate the inclusion of ultra-high energy cosmic rays into the ESA Cosmic Vision 2015 programme, which provides a frame to study the scientific case, technical design and timeliness of space based detectors for ultra high energy radiation
• The impact of measurements at accelerators, particularly at the LHC, should be evaluated in close cooperation with the particle physics community.
• Efforts to bridge the gap between present direct and air shower detection methods (with large-aperture, long duration flight missions above the atmosphere and/or by ground detectors with sufficient particle identification placed at highest altitudes) should be encouraged.

• To further explore the diversity of galactic and extragalactic gamma ray sources, construction of a next-generation facility for ground-based very-high-energy gamma ray astronomy (CTA – Cherenkov Telescope Array) is very strongly recommended. It builds on the demonstrated technical maturity and physics case of Cherenkov telescopes. CTA should both boost the sensitivity by another order of magnitude and enlarge the usable energy range. The technology to build arrays of highly sensitive telescopes is available or under advanced development, and deployment should start at the beginning of the next decade, overlapping with the operation of the GLAST satellite.
• It is desirable to cover both hemispheres, with one site each. While low-threshold capability is of interest for both, a southern site of the facility should also provide improved detection rate at very high energies, given the flat spectra of galactic sources; this aspect may be less crucial for a northern site concentrating more on extragalactic physics. The instruments should be prepared by a common European consortium and share R&D, technologies and instrument designs to the extent possible. Cooperation with similar efforts underway in the US and in Japan should be explored.
• The development of alternative detection techniques, for example techniques based on detection of shower particles at ground level, should be pursued, in particular concerning approaches for wide angle instruments which are complementary to the conventional Cherenkov instruments with their limited field of view.
Recommendations
Small IACTs (Romania, Croatia, Armenia, Russia, …)
+ “continuous” monitoring of strong sources+ react to “low probability” alerts + community formation in new partner countries for CTA+ strong E&O aspect - on a short term: defocusing CTA efforts

• For a complete sky coverage, in particular of the central parts of the Galaxy with many promising sources, we strongly recommend to work towards a cubic kilometre detector in the Northern Hemisphere which will complement the IceCube detector. Resources for a Mediterranean detector should be pooled in a single, optimized large research infrastructure “KM3NeT”. Start of the construction of KM3NeT is going to be preceded by the successful operation of small scale or prototype detector(s) in the Mediterranean. It’s design should also incorporate the improved knowledge on galactic sources as provided by H.E.S.S. and MAGIC gamma ray observations, as well as initial results from IceCube. Still, the time lag between IceCube and KM3NeT detector should be kept as small as possible.
• Based on AMANDA experience, the construction of IceCube with its early high discovery potential is planned to be completed in 2011. Since long, European partners have been playing a strong role in AMANDA/IceCube. They should be supported in order to ensure the appropriate scientific return, as well as a strong contribution to the considered extension of IceCube.
• Several promising techniques to detect cosmic neutrinos of highest energy – like radio Cherenkov detection in ice, in the atmosphere or in the moon crust – will be tested with existing detectors; others, like acoustic detection, or radio detection in salt domes, are still in an R&D phase. In order to cover the full range of all possible energies of cosmic neutrinos, exploitation of these techniques is mandatory. The ongoing coordinated R&D work should be supported.

• Construction and operation of Auger North. The present flagship in the search for sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays is the Southern Pierre Auger Observatory, with a 50% European contribution. The celestial distribution of possible sources and of background radiation and magnetic fields requires full-sky coverage. This is the main idea behind a Northern Auger Observatory, the second being a possible extension to a larger area and measuring to even higher energies. European groups should play a significant role to establish the scientific case, and after its demonstration make a significant contribution to the design and construction of Auger-North. Estimated costs are 85 M€, with about a third of this sum expected from Europe. Construction could start in 2009.
Executive Summary
• Construction and operation of the large Cherenkov Telescope Array, CTA. European instruments are leading the field of ground-based high-energy gamma ray astronomy. The rich results from current instruments show that high-energy phenomena are ubiquitous in the sky; in fact, some of the objects discovered emit most of their power in the gamma-ray range and are barely visible at other wavelengths (“dark accelerators”). The need for a next-generation instrument is obvious, and its required characteristics are well understood. The Roadmap Committee very strongly recommends the construction of a next-generation facility, CTA. CTA should both boost the sensitivity by another order of magnitude and enlarge the usable energy range. CTA is conceived to cover both hemispheres, with one site in each. The instruments should be prepared by a common European consortium and share R&D, technologies and instrument designs to the extent possible. Cooperation with similar efforts underway in the US and in Japan should be explored. The price tag for one site is in the 50-100 M€ range. The desirable start of construction is 2010.
Executive Summary
• Construction and initial operation of KM3NeT. The physics case for high energy neutrino astronomy is obvious: neutrinos can provide an uncontroversial proof of the hadronic character of the source; moreover they can reach us from cosmic regions which are opaque to other types of radiation. European physicists have played a key role in construction and operation of the two pioneering large neutrino telescopes, NT200 in Lake Baikal and AMANDA at the South Pole, and are also strongly involved in AMANDA’s successor, IceCube. A complete sky coverage, in particular of the central parts of the Galaxy with many promising source candidates, requires a cubic kilometre detector in the Northern Hemisphere complementing IceCube. A strong community has grown over the last decade, with the goal to prepare the construction of this future detector in the Mediterranean. Prototype installations (NESTOR, NEMO) and an AMANDA-sized telescope (ANTARES) are expected to be installed in 2006/2007. An EU-funded 3-year study (KM3NeT) is in progress to work out the technical design of a single, optimized large future research infrastructure “KM3NeT”. Its design should incorporate initial results from IceCube as well as the improved knowledge on Galactic sources as provided by H.E.S.S. and MAGIC gamma ray observations. The cost scale for KM3NeT is expected to be roughly 230-250 M€; more precise estimates will result from the Design Study. The construction of KM3NeT has to be preceded by the successful operation of small scale or prototype detector(s) in the Mediterranean and could start in 2011.
