DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Tord Ekelöf (Uppsala University)\, Kevin Pepitone (
 Uppsala University)\n\nAt the end of the workshop ‘Intensity Frontier Pa
 rticle Physics with Compressed Pulses from the ESS Linac’ that we had at
  Uppsala University 2-3 March 2020 it was decided to organize a High Inten
 sity Frontier at ESS Contact Persons’ web meeting in the end of May whic
 h has now been scheduled to take place on Friday 29 May at 15:00-17:00. In
  addition to the nominated Contact Persons several other interested person
 s will attend this meeting.\n\nThe purpose of the meeting is to identify a
  few first-stage design-study objectives of the different projects present
 ed at the High Intensity Frontier at ESS workshop\, that could be part of 
 a common design study. The resources that can be obtained from the ERC and
  EU funding schemes are limited. In view of this\, for the more extensive 
 and long-term projects like nuSTORM\, Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider\,
  the first-stage design-study objectives would have to be limited in some 
 way\, like proposing design studies of some initial-stage components that 
 will later\, in a second follow-op design project\, be complemented by stu
 dies of the remaining components. The intension is to formulate after the 
 meeting an application to the ERC Synergy funding scheme and/or the Horizo
 n Europe INFRADEV-1 funding scheme for funding to support such a common de
 sign study. \n\nIt is worth noting that this project is in accordance with
  the following statement at the bottom of page 97 in the Briefing Book of 
 the European Strategy for Particle Physics published in January and availa
 ble at https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.11775: “ …ESS could be an important 
 test-bed for R&D on new intense neutrino beams along the road towards a Ne
 utrino Factory. Indeed a Neutrino Factory [386]\, where the neutrinos are 
 produced in the decay of muons in a storage ring\, would be the natural ne
 xt-to-next step for long-baseline experiments beyond DUNE and Hyper-Kamiok
 ande. It would be a unique facility to reach a precision of 6◦ on the me
 asurement of δCP.”\n\nThe discussion to follow after the presentations 
 on the meeting agenda will aim at a synthesis of all ideas presented that 
 could serve as a basis for an application for resources for a common desig
 n study.\n\nhttps://indico.uu.se/event/757/
