Abstract:
The Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF) is a new-generation high-luminosity electron-positron collider proposed in China. It will operate in an energy range of 2-7 GeV with a luminosity higher than 0.5x1035 cm-2s-1 at 4 Gev, The STCF can produce a large number of hadrons and tau leptons in a clean environment, serving as a unique and powerful tool for studying how quarks form hadrons to understand the quark confinement, as well as revealing the mystery of the space-time symmetry of fundamental interactions with unprecedented precision. The STCF physics program covers a broad spectrum of physics topics, placing stringent demands on the performance ofthe STCF accelerator and detector. The STCF detector and accelerator conceptual designs have been completed and published. A full accelerator and detector technology R&D was established and funded two years ago, and has been progressing rapidly. In this report, I will present the STCF physics program after giving an overview of the STCF project. l will will then present the STCF accelerator and detector conceptual designs and R&D progress, I will also briefly mention the latest development of the STCF project.

Speaker Profile:
Jianbei Liu is Professor of Physics at the department of modern physics of the University of Science and Technology of China, specializing in experimental high-energy physics. He earned his bachelor's degree from Tsinghua University in 2000 and received his Ph.D. from the Institute of High Energy Physics (lHEP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2005. He conducted postdoctoral research at IHEP from 2005 to 2007 and at the  University of Michigan from 2007 to 2012. Since 2012, he has been working at the University of Science and Technology of China.
Professor Liu made major contributions to the design, development, and construction of the central tracking detector at the BESII experiment, and the first observation of vector boson scattering process at the LHC. He has also developed innovative technologies at the cutting edge of micro-pattern gaseous detectors.
Currently, as the general detector coordinator of the Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF) project and a convener of the Physics &Detector Working Group of the Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEP) proiect, Professor Liu is actively leading detector R&D for China’s next-generation collider experiments.
Professor Liu holds several academic positions, including executive council member of the Nuclear Electronics and Nuclear Detection Technology Branch of the Chinese Nuclear Society,  member of the standing commitee of the High Energy Physics Branch of the chinese Physical Society, member of the International Committee for Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors, member of the BESIII technical board, and editorial board member of Chinese Physics C.
