R&D for a high-precision TPC is ongoing in the international ILC-TPC collaboration. The main topics are the construction of a low material-budget field cage and the development of gas amplification end-plates using GEM or Micromegas. In this talk we discuss the state-of-art in gaseous tracking detector for LC, in particular, the concept and the current status of R&D of MPGD TPC for LC.

The physics program at a future linear collider requires a novel design of the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), very different to equivalent detectors used at the LHC. The Particle Flow Approach (PFA) to jet reconstruction implies an ECAL whose primary goal is to identify individual particle showers in the dense environment of high energy hadronic jets. This consideration leads an...

To fully exploit the physics potential of a future Lepton Collider will require unprecedented jet energy and (di)-mass resolution. Currently two complementary approaches are being pursued to achieve this goal: Particle Flow Algorithms (PFAs) and Dual Readout (DR) calorimetry. The former requires imaging calorimeters with extremely fine spatial segmentation. The latter requires the measurement...

12. State-of-the-art in Forward Calorimetry and other Miscellaneous Detector Applications

A report will be given about the design of the very forward calorimeters, their functionality, and the performance of prototype sensor planes assembled with dedicated FE ASICs in test beams. These sensor planes constitute the key components to built compact and finely segmented sampling calorimeters as prototypes of very forward calorimeters. Also the R&D on special detectors for muon...

13. Summary of the Spin-off Document “ILC Detector R&D: Its Impact”

M. Demarteau (Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, USA)

Although the actual construction date of the ILC accelerator and its detectors is uncertain, the impact of the R&D for ILC detectors is very real. The deep impact of the work initiated by and carried out within the ILC detector community on the particle physics community and beyond will be discussed.
