FTX Organigram

Welcome to the FTX Group!

FTX prepares future experiments in particle physics.

We develop and nurture the expert base which DESY as a key player in future experiments needs. This spans particle physics, scientific computing, detector science and accelerator technologies.

Our current focus is the development of an electron-positron collider program, initially to be used as a Higgs factory, in line with the European Strategy for Particle Physics.

The group has about 70 members doing research in 5 subgroups:

 

The group has been created at the end of 2020 from the former groups FLC and FLA, and the Test Beam team.

A recent overview of the FTX activities has been given at the 95th Meeting of the Physics Research Committee on May 2, 2023.
