What about HERA-2What about HERA-2 The goal of HERA-2 is to deliver 1 fb-1/expt, divided into e-,e+ and L,R handed lepton polarization.
EW unification in one plot – measured with HERA-1. Few K CC events. The upgraded luminosity, and different polarizations, will yield precise tests of EW and flavor dependent valence quark densities.
The physics goal is the extraction of high-x,Q2 parton densities, measurement of EW parameters, high PT processes, and searches for new physics.The H1 and ZEUS detectors were designed for this ! ! !

Electrons vs positronsElectrons vs positrons
Difference comes from the F3 term in the cross section (parity violating term). I.e., comparison of electron, positron cross sections gives F3, which depends purely on valence quarks. One of main goals of HERA-2 running.

NLO DGLAP fits can follow the data accurately, yield parton densities. BUT:• many free parameters (18-30)
• form of parametrization fixed (not given by theory)
Constraints, e.g., dsea=usea put in by hand. Is this correct ? Need more constraints to untangle parton densities.

See breakdown of pQCD approach ... Gluon density known with good precision at larger Q2. For Q2=1, gluons go negative. NLO, so not impossible, BUT – cross sections such as L also negative !
Luca Stanco “HERA 3: The Physics Case”
12 Maggio 2003 – CN1
We need to test NkLO DGLAP fits and extraction of gluon densities. Crucial, since DGLAP is our standard tool for calculating PDF‘s in unmeasured regions.
Gluon densities not known at higher order, low Q2. Need more precise measurements, additional observables (e.g., FL)

FL shows tremendous variations when attempt to calculate at different orders. But FL is an observable – unique result.
Problem: F2 NLO DGLAP fits work well, but large number of free parameters. Do we really know the gluon density ? Need to show that we can make accurate predictions for cross sections.
FL very sensitive observable – let’s measure it

Physics Motivation– Strong InteractionsPhysics Motivation– Strong Interactions
• QCD is the most complex of the forces operating in the microworld expect many beautiful and strange effects
• QCD is fundamental to the understanding of our universe: source of mass, confinement of color, …
• We need to understand radiation processes in QCD, both at small distance scales and large.
• small distance scales: understand parton splitting (DGLAP, BFKL, CCFM, …)• larger distance scales: suppression of radiation, transition to non-perturbative regime (constituent quarks, …)
• Observation of the saturated gluon state (color glass condensate) ? Expected to be a universal state of matter.

Open Questions – Next Steps
• Measure FL over widest possible kinematic range, as this is a crucial observable for testing our understanding of radiation processes in QCD.
•Measure the behavior of inclusive, diffractive and exclusive reactions in the region near Q2=1 GeV2 to understand parton to hadron transition.
• Measure exclusive processes (VM production, DVCS) over wide W range to precisely pin down energy dependence of cross section. Need t-dependence of cross sections to get 3-D map of proton.
• Measure forward jet cross sections over widest possible rapidity range, to study radiation processes over the full rapidity range from the proton to the scattered quark.
• AND, do it all with nuclei !

At small x, the scattering is coherent over nucleus, so the diquark sees much larger # of partons: xg(xeff,Q2) = A1/3 xg(x,Q2), at small-x, xg x- , so xeff
- = A1/3x- so xeff xA-1/3 = xA-3 (Q2< 1 GeV2) = xA-1 (Q2 100 GeV2)

Parton densities in nuclei
Early RHIC data is well described by the Color Glass Condensate model, which assumes a condensation of the gluon density at a saturation scale QS which is near (in ?) the perturbatively calculable regime. Properties of such a color glass can be calculated from first principles (Mc Lerran-Venugopalan). Closely connected to dipole model approach.
The same basic measurements (F2, FL, dF2/d ln Q2, exclusive processes) are needed for understanding parton densities in nuclei.

Accelerator Requirements
1. Luminosity: determined by exclusive processes, high-x for high eP, eD. For nuclei, 2 pb-1/nucleon (95/96 Workshop)
2. Beam energies (how many, values of Ee,EP for FL, FLD, high-
x).3. Beam divergence (how low in t do we want to go ?
Requirements for deuteron tags ?)4. Nuclear species (how high in A)5. Alternating nuclear species according to bunch ? 6. How far away can machine elements be placed ? Where are
windows ? Locations for possible detectors ?7. How strong can dipole field be ? Synchrotron radiation ?8. What about off-momentum electrons in dipole ?

SummarySummary• Existing data (F2 fits, forward jets,+…) show limitations of pQCD calculations. Transition region observed. • Exciting theoretical developments over the past few years. We are approaching a much deeper understanding of the high energy limit of QCD. Measure with more precision, over wider kinematical range, to see where/how breakdown takes place (high rapidities, high-t exclusive processes, expanded W, MX range for diffraction, full coverage of transition region)
Precision FL measurement: key observable for pinning down pQCD. Large differences in predictions at LO, NLO, NNLO.
eD, eA measurements to probe high density gluon state, parton densities for nuclei, and more on that the neutron structure function.
• Additional benefits: parton densities for particle, astroparticle and nuclear high energy physics experiments. Crucial for cross section calculations.

Summary-continuedSummary-continued
The ZEUS and H1 detectors were not designed with this physics in mind. An optimized detector would greatly enhance the sensitivity of the measurements to deviations from pQCD !
Let’s take advantage of the full potential of HERA to answer some fundamental questions about our universe !
Experiment would focus on full acceptance in the small angle electron and proton directions. Centered on precision tracking and EM calorimetry.
Moderate machine requirements for eP program. Nuclei need developments.

Scope and time scaleScope and time scale
• We are discussing a moderate size experiment at an existing collider, so in principle program could start within 5 years. I.e., after the end of the HERA-2 program.• HERA is unique. With an experiment dedicated to QCD, we can make substantial progress in understanding radiation patterns at different distance scales. This is at the heart of a deeper understanding of all matter.• Problem – HERA preinjector (PETRA) is scheduled to be converted to a synchrotron light source in 2007. Need to show there is a strong community of particle physicists interested in HERA physics.
