Parton Distributions in the LHC Range
Blue & red data points = NP scenario ( L = 40)Black curve = SM cross-sections [E.Perez,Divonne]NP may be accomodated by HERA DGLAP fithowever, it can not by the fit to also LHeC. (recall high Et excess at the Tevatron which disappeared when xg became modified)
Factorisation is violated in productionof high pT particles (interaction in initial and in final state). The LHeCcan be expected to be crucial forestablishing new physics at TeV scale,in itself (if eq resonant states are found)and as a complement to the LHC.

Extract valence quarks at low x fromy-Z interference (charge asymmetry)LHeC: high Luminosity and high Q2
→ much higher sensitivity and reach,Unknown at x below ~0.05 in DIS.With deuterons disentangle u and d
The d/u ratio is a puzzle to DIS.The LHeC reaches high x with NC and CC (+/-). It therefore allowsto measure the u and d valencedensities accurately at high x andfree of nuclear corrections (FermiMotion). This may turn out to becrucial for understanding high massparticle production at the LHC.

Quark Structure of the ProtonHeavy Quarks (s,c,b)
The strange quark density isn’t (well) known.Some information from di-muon datain neutrino scattering. Some indicationsfor s.ne.sbar. With the LHeC, for thefirst time measure e s → ν c, tag c, get s.Measure anti-strange as accurately!
First measurements of b at HERA can be turned to precision measurement of beauty.LHeC: higher fraction of b, larger rangesmaller beam spot, better Si detectors. Much of the new physics expected at the LHC proceeds with beauty, e.g. Higgs production in MSSM models. Charm becomes precision measurement as well.

Gluon DensityThe gluon density dominates low x. It is not well constrained at large x. It yet dominates many cross sections of high interest at the LHC, as Higgs production in the Standard Model.
It is best measured from the scaling violations of F2 ,and also constrained with FL , F2
c , jets in DIS and pp
At ep colliders measure generalised parton distributionsin DVCS, with charge and polarisation asymmetries.At the LHeC accurately determine generalised gluon

Saturation?
The dynamics at low x is not clarified withHERA. Cross sections shall saturatebecause of unitarity. The LHeC has theenergy to establish this - a new phase ofmatter in which the density is high butthe coupling is small (CGC). The cleardemonstration of this effect looks feasiblewith precision measurements with protonsup to highest energy of the LHeC.

Kinematics
Information on nuclearparton densities is tooconfined: in range (LHeC:Q2 times 103-4 coveringfull range!) and in diversity(heavy quarks in nuclei,shadowing flavourdependent etc.). TheLHeC range accessesnew phase of matter inDIS region.
eRHIC is complementary.
Low energy collidersuggested for FAIR.

LHeC Beams
e ring: 80 GeV max., high intensity (up to 1034 ), e± , polarisation possibly, interferes with LHC
e linac: ~ 140 GeV max, lower luminosity, high polarisation, e- ok, e+ difficult for > 1032 energy recovery may lead path to high luminosity and efficient use of power
p beam energy 1TeV (synchronisation) -7 TeV (if god saves the magnets)
Pb beam: 2.76 TeV , source may handle lighter ions.
LHC upgrade: higher intensity, smaller emittance, perhaps 50ns: upgrade of injector system
For LHeC: interested in upgraded p beam. An option: use 5 GeV SPL beam, at up to 1033
an option of the option: add race track and increase e energy to 20 GeV (near to ISR)
The injection energy to PS2 is too low for ion preacceleration: if ions are desired in SLHCphase: need to foresee either another ring or extra rf in PS2
Deuterons: require EBIZ source, O(10 Mill) investment. 3.5 TeV energy
If we/you want an LHeC initially of 5-20 on 2.76-3.5-7 TeV: SLHC upgrade papers due: 1/2009
This is my understanding not CERN’s position

Summary
The LHeC is a unique facility of fundamental importance. Its prime motivation in terms of energy and luminosity is the exploration of eq physics at the TeV scale and its complementarity to the LHC. High s is small x=Q2 /sy.
The LHeC thus has a huge range of physics on the structureof matter and the dynamics of strong interactions, which ismuch wider than could be presented here. This potentialmay unite particle with nuclear physics around the project.
The LHeC reach in energy and beam diversity is unprecedent.In making use of the best hadron beams in the world and in adding perhaps more than one e beam to them, the LHeCwill allow to restore the symmetry of pp, ep and ee collisions,then at TeV energies.
The steering and advisory groups, ECFA and CERN encouragethe nuclear physics community to take an active part in workingout the Conceptual Design Report by the end of 2009.
