8. September 2006F. Richard LAL/Orsay8 Preparation of FP7  First discussion within ESGARD February  From Pasini: no call for I3 before end 2007 and low funding on DS and low funding on DS  Important discussions took place at the CCSG in Berlin Zeuthen beginning of May -> ELAN meeting was timely on these issues  What are our goals after CARE+EUROTEV ?  Why do we need a European SC RF facility beyond TTF ?

9. September 2006F. Richard LAL/Orsay9 European SC RF Facility at CERN  LoI sent to the CERN-Council SG ON March 15  Participation of ELAN (L. Lilje, F.R.)  Basic idea: TTF facility (SC technology) heavily used for XFEL and should be partially replaced by a new facility dedicated to R&D on SC  CERN, as a center of excellency for SC, could house such a facility  Needs support from the CERN-Council to be inscribed by ESFRI in the roadmap inscribed by ESFRI in the roadmap
