Reminder: GAPS Chat After TRIUMF Colloquia

[Gaps]

Hi GAPS members!

A quick reminder that GAPS hosts a 30-minute chat with the colloquium speaker after each Thursday TRIUMF colloquium. These take place in the MOB Cafeteria, starting directly after the colloquium. This is a great opportunity for informal chats with the speaker, related to their presentation or anything else you wish to discuss!

Today’s colloquium is at 14:00 (GAPS chat will start at ~15:10). You can see the colloquium information below.

Subject: [Triumf-seminars] TRIUMF Colloquium, Thu Jan 22 2026 at 14:00

Location: Auditorium/Remote

Speaker: Spencer Gessner (SLAC)

Title: The 10 TeV Wakefield Collider Design Study

Abstract: The 10 TeV Wakefield Collider Design Study is a community-driven effort motivated by the 2023 P5 Report, which calls for the ?delivery of an end-to-end design concept? of an energy frontier collider. Wakefield technology provides high energy acceleration in short distances, enabling compact and affordable colliders. But the size, cost, and performance of a collider is driven by much more than just accelerator technology. In this talk, I will describe how HEP theorists and experimentalists have come together with wakefield accelerator and collider experts to address all aspects of the 10 TeV Wakefield Collider including physics reach, beamstrahlung backgrounds, beam delivery system, and high energy linacs. I will conclude the talk with a discussion on the state of accelerator R&D globally and prospects for achieving 10 TeV pCM collisions at hadron, muon, or wakefield colliders. --- Remote Connection: https://ubc.zoom.us/j/61351909122?pwd=ZIzXs96XgDOzWirhpgnDJKdit7ViJ2.1 Meeting ID: 613 5190 9122 Passcode: 917652
