LAGO participation in LASF4RI (October, 2020)
LASF4RI, Latin American strategy forum for Research Infraestruture, has been working to set up a HEP scientific program in Latin America since 2019. LAGO has been part of this process with an oral presentation, a White Paper and participating in the discussion.
As quoted from the web page https://lasf4ri.org/: "The process for the first Latin American Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructure for High Energy, Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (LASF4RI-HECAP) has come to a conclusion in October 2020. A Physics Briefing Book (PBB) was written by the Preparatory Group based on the 40 White Papers submitted by the community. The PBB served as the basis for the LASF4RI-HECAP Strategy Document that was endorsed in a letter by the High Level Strategy Group."
LAGO has been very well received with a recommendation in the strategy document:
- Support small scale, high impact dedicated experiments across HECAP.
