Instrumentation Frontier Report Howard Nicholson 4/18/2013 Howard Nicholson 1

Overview The Basic Format of the Report • The Executive Summary (4 -5 pages) – This will summarize the body of the report and emphasize the most promising technologies to pursue. • The Report (30 pages) – This is organized in the following 10 sections: 1)Introduction, 2)Energy, 3)Intensity and 4)Cosmic Frontiers, 5)Emerging and 6)Cross Cutting Technologies, 7)Facilities, 8)Infrastructure, 9)Partnerships (Industry, Lab & Univ), and 10)Leadership Opportunities. 4/18/2013 Howard Nicholson 2

Overview (continued) In the Body of the Report, a typical section is organized as follows: • Current and Planned Projects – Succinct description of science goal(s), methodology, reach, and limitations • Key Issues and Next Steps – Identify areas of detector R&D which are necessary to sustain current and planned projects and would increase science reach or reduce cost of future projects – Identify areas where investment in detector R&D would enable the US to maintain or develop leadership roles in next generation projects. • Beyond the Next Decade (where appropriate) 4/18/2013 Howard Nicholson 3
