DESY looks to the future

DESY plays a major role in the design, construction and future operation of the collider detector. The strength of DESY is the result of an in-house synergy in three key areas: accelerator development, particle physics and research with synchrotron radiation. In particle physics DESY's research and its contributions to the linear collider itself and the detector, ensures that the laboratory remains a major contributor to the realisation of the project.
