Survey & alignment of machine components and experiments
The RIKEN-JASRI Joint XFEL Project Team is constructing XFEL facility at SPring-8 site. The building with a total length of 640m was completed in March, 2009. Install of the accelerator components was started from March 2009. Now, the accelerator section is almost finished and the undulator section is 40% finished. Its operation will be started from February 2011. We will present installation...

Survey & alignment of machine components and experiments
The active pre-alignment of the Compact LInear Collider (CLIC) is one of the key points of the project: its feasibility will have to be demonstrated in the Conceptual Design Report (CDR), end of 2010. The components must be pre-aligned with respect to a straight line within a few microns over a sliding window of 200 m, along the whole 20 km long linacs. The proposed solution is the outcome of...

Survey & alignment of machine components and experiments
The primary goal of the NOvA experiment at Fermilab is to search for evidence of muon to electron neutrino oscillations. NOvA will use two detectors, the near detector located underground at Fermilab in the NuMI tunnels and the far detector located 810 km from Fermilab on the US-Canada border in Ash River, Minnesota. This paper discusses the survey of the NOvA near detector.

In the context of today’s global interest in the neutrino research programs, with special emphasis on long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, the LBNE project at Fermilab receives special attention as the world's highest-intensity neutrino beam to be sent more than 1,200 kilometres straight through the earth to the largest particle detectors ever built deep underground in South...
