HFM Programme Steering Board (HFM SB)
The HFM SB oversees the execution of the HFM Programme.
The HFM SB is composed of:
- The CERN ATS Director;
- The CERN TE Department Head;
- Up to two further expert members nominated by the ATS Director;
- The Chair of the HFM Collaboration Board;
- Up to two further members from among the participating institutes, appointed by the HFM Collaboration Board, to ensure appropriate technical and geographical diversity;

- THE HFM Programme Office Leader.
The HFM SB assesses the progress achieved by the HFM Programme and provides guidance and direction. The HFM SB makes high-level strategic decisions related to the changes of the HFM Programme scope and the scope of major collaborations. The HFM SB provides organisational and technical oversight. The Steering Board reports to the LDG.
The HFM SB current members are:

HFM Collaboration Board (HFM CB)
The HFM CB brings together high-level representatives of all national institutions taking part in the HFM R&D Programme.
The HFM CB provides the framework for engagement of National Laboratories from the Member States in the European R&D Programme as set out in the LDG Report.
The HFM CB mandate is to discuss the strategy and the scope of participation to the HFM Programme. Specifically, the HFM CB shall:
- Be informed of the technical and scientific progress of the HFM R&D Programme;
- Be informed of the on-going and perspective collaborations among participants within the scope of the HFM R&D Programme;
- Review the work and resource sharing among the participating institutes;
- Identify, within national and European funding agencies, resources for the implementation of the execution of the ongoing HFM R&D Programme and future stages;
- Discuss the overall HFM R&D Programme strategy and provide advice and guidance to the HFM Steering Board and HFM Programme Leader on the technical progress and collaboration matters.
The HFM CB is composed as follows:
- One representative per institution that, having signed the HFM MoC, contributes to the HFM R&D Programme. Their participation is approved by the HFM CB;
- A representative of CERN as one of the participants in the HFM R&D Programme;
- The HFM R&D Programme Leader;
- THE HFM Programme Office Leader.
The HFM CB elects its Chair from among its members and typically meets a few times per year.
The HFM CB current members are:
- C. Senatore (Chair) (UNIGE),
- S. Malvezzi (Co-Chair) (INFN),
- B. Auchmann (PSI/CHART),
- B. Holzapfel (KIT),
- J. M. Jimenez (CERN),
- J. Then (TU Freiberg),
- M. Lamont (CERN),
- A. Malagoli (CNR/SPIN),
- M. Sugano (KEK),
- J. M. Perez (CIEMAT),
- L. Rossi (INFN),
- G. Riddone (CERN),
- S. Schneider (TUWien),
- T. Tervoort (ETHZ),
- E. Todesco (CERN),
- P. Vedrine (CEA),
- Y. Yang (SOTON).

HFM Programme RD Lines and Work Packages
The HFM Programme is structured in 6 RD Line which contain Work Packages.
Work Packages are grouped into RD Lines. Each RD Line builds on the Work Packages within the domain. The RD Lines enable the exploitation of synergies and provide a focal point for the main R&D areas:
- RD1 - Nb3Sn Conductors;
- RD2 - HTS Conductors and HTS Magnet Technologies;
- RD3 - Nb3Sn Magnets;
- RD4 - Integration, Sustainability;
- RD5 - Infrastructures and Measurement Techniques;
- RD6 - Scientific and Societal Impact.
The RD Lines and Work Packages may be adapted in the future to adjust for the progress and accommodate the evolving needs of the HFM R&D Programme.
The RD Lines are led by coordinators appointed by the HFM Programme Leader.
