Abstract (D8.S1)
Consolidation of the physics case and detector concepts for both colliders. In the area of physics, experiments and detectors that are covered by the Physics, Experiments and Detectors work package, activities will continue on consolidating the physics case for the integrated FCC programme and the corresponding requirements for theoretical calculations and Monte Carlo generators. The FCC-hh detector concepts will be revisited in light of the evolution of the physics landscape and the experience gained with the
HighLuminosity LHC detector upgrades, whilst for FCC-ee several detector concepts are being considered and benchmarked to meet the requirements of ultra-precise Higgs boson and electroweak measurements. The cost drivers for construction and operation will be evaluated and requirements for accelerator performance, technical infrastructure, integration and civil engineering will be formulated. Detector design and R&D will proceed in collaboration with the R&D for future detectors initiative at CERN, and with the activities that will emerge from the Detector Roadmap being developed under the auspices of ECFA.
