A Roadmap for the Future of U.S. High Energy Physics

One year ago, the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy charged a HEPAP subpanel with developing a long range plan for particle physics. During the past year, the panel reviewed of the scientific goals, recent accomplishments, and present status of the field. It then created a roadmap for the future of U.S particle physics. The roadmap starts with the scientific goals and lays out the opportunities for the field, in the U.S. and abroad. A centerpiece of the roadmap is the linear collider, a new international facility at the energy frontier.
