2 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 2 ILIAS (Integrated Large Infrastructures for Astroparticle Science) Status: Approved Contract number: RII3-CT-2003-506222 Status: Approved Contract number: RII3-CT-2003-506222 Official start data: April 1 st, 2004 EU Sixth Framework Programme Research Infrastructure Action is a within the 4 / 5 years programme

3 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 3 ILIAS results from an extensive consultation of the community and an internal review process overseen by ApPEC, and aims at strengthening this new coordination by focusing on three scientific poles:  Gravitational Wave Observation  Theoretical Astroparticle Physics Coordination with Transnational access (TA1) complemented by three Networks :Improvement of performance (N2), Direct dark matter detection (N3) and Double-beta decay (N4) and two Joint Research Activities: Low background techniques (JRA1) and Double-beta decay new techniques (JRA2)  Physics in Underground Laboratories A network to structure the activities (N5) complemented by a Joint Research Activity in the key area of thermal noise reduction (JRA3). A network to encourage cooperative theoretical projects, improve links with experiments, promote better understanding of existing data and help to define future projects (N6)

6 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 6 A vast R&D programme on the improvement and implementation of ultra-low background techniques will be carried out cooperatively in the four European Underground Laboratories: -Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (Italy) -Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc (Spain) -Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (France) -Boulby Underground Lab (UK)

7 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 7 WP1: Background measurements in underground laboratories WP2: Implementation of background MC simulation codes WP3: Ultra-low background techniques and facilities WP4: R&D on radiopurity of materials and purification techniques Working packages

8 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 8 WP 1. Key objectives To measure the environmental background components (neutrons, gammas, muons, Rn contamination in the air and in the water...) in the four underground sites in a coherent and coordinated way. The joint research effort should optimise the know-how of the different participants. This is extremely important for the interpretation of data and for planning future experiments.

9 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 9 WP 2. Key objectives To produce a reliable Monte Carlo library of simulation codes to identify and quantify the backgrounds in the EU underground sites in a variety of experimental conditions for the interpretation of data and for planning future experiments. The joint research effort should optimise the know-how of the different participants. Experimental results from Task 1 will be useful as the input of the simulations.

10 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 10 WP 3. Key objectives -Construction and upgrading of ultra low background facilities (ULBF) in the four underground labs forming an EU-coordinated service for applications in rare event physics and other fields of world-wide value. -Implementation of new techniques to deal with the background: active and passive shielding, veto systems, particle discrimination techniques, fragmentation of calorimeter detectors, control and suppression of radon levels... -Study of the feasibility of fabrication of detectors and materials underground.

11 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 11 WP 4. Key objectives -Collect new data on radioactive contamination and cosmogenic activation of materials used in rare-event physics experiments and ultra-low background instrumentation, using the new capabilities offered by the R&D and facilities of WP 3. -Development and test of purification techniques to improve the radio-purity of materials.

12 ILIAS-JRA1 General meeting. Edinburgh. Sept.2004 http://www.unizar.es/ilias 12 Deliverables -Database + documentation with all results on radiopurity measurements WP 4. WP 1. -Complete database with all new data on background components -Scientific papers with new measurements WP 2. -Library of simulation codes + documentation tested on real data WP 3. -Report on the new low background facilities installed in the four underground labs.
