The SLHC prospects at ATLAS and CMS.

The LHC will start pp collisions at 14 TeV in 2008. The luminosity will ramp up to the design goal of 10^34 cm-2 s-1 over the next few years. After several years data taking at design luminosity, there will still be many physics questions requiring substantially more statistics. The LHC can be upgra...

Sumario:The LHC will start pp collisions at 14 TeV in 2008. The luminosity will ramp up to the design goal of 10^34 cm-2 s-1 over the next few years. After several years data taking at design luminosity, there will still be many physics questions requiring substantially more statistics. The LHC can be upgraded in several stages to reach a peak luminosity of 10 times the design for the super-LHC project. The ATLAS and CMS detectors must be upgraded to cope with the very high pile-up rates and radiation levels to take advantage of the sLHC. This talk summarises the physics goals, sLHC machine plans, and the needs of ATLAS and CMS to adapt to the unprecedented pile-up and radiation levels.
