21. Envisaged Implementation
Goal is to design one operational facility at one location.
Resources will be distributed to all partners:
Model of big particle physics detector: Many institutes team up to build one detector at one place, each contributing a part.
Site study with the goal to propose the best site:
Existing infrastructure, host lab support, scientific user community, support from funding agency, …
Facility will be devoted to provide for pilot users:
Ultra-compact X-ray FEL
Ultra-compact GeV electron source for HEP detector development
