The report of the Conventional Beams Working Group to the Physics Beyond Collider Study and to the European Strategy for Particle Physics

This document summarises the main conclusions of the Conventional Beams Working group, which has analysed the beam related and technical requirements and requests in the proposals to the Physics Beyond Colliders study for the North Area at the CERN SPS. We present results from studies on feasibility, requirements, compatibility between proposals and, where possible, the order of magnitude of the costs. The physics interest, sensitivity reach and competitiveness world wide of the proposals is discussed in the BSM and QCD physics working groups, which work in synergy with the Conventional Beams group. The final document will be published in place of this announcement. In the meantime a close-to-final draft will be available as EDMS document number 2053962 as of 18 December.
