fFermilab PAC, June 2002: Neutrino Initiatives

At the Aspen meeting, the PAC considered two submissions addressing initiativeswhich go beyond the neutrino program consisting of the NuMI/MINOS and MiniBooNEexperiments. The PAC response to a potential extension of the neutrino program waspositive. Therefore, we will encourage a series of workshops and discussions, designed to help convergence on strong proposals within the next few years. These should involve as broad a community as possible so that we can accurately gauge the interest and chart our course. Understanding the demands on the accelerator complex and the need for possible modest improvements is also a goal. Potentially, an extension of the neutrino program could be a strong addition to the Fermilab program in the medium term. We hope to get started on this early in 2003.

Michael Witherell

We are doing this: Off-Axis Detector Workshop at SLAC Special Lecture Series (just completed)

Nov 2002 PAC had a range of neutrino submissions

fPublic Face

• http://www.fnal.gov/directorate/ Longrange/Long_range_planning_public.html

Will develop method for posting communications, opinions, and positions.

Will develop plans for “public “ input and discussion.

Page 5: F Fermilab: The Future Fermilab Users Meeting Hugh Montgomery June 3, 2003.

fGoal of the Committee The face of particle physics is changing.

Over the course of the next decade we expect that the high energy frontier will pass from the Tevatron at Fermilab to the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.

The particle physics world would like to build a Linear Collider and we at Fermilab have stated that we would like to host such a machine. This was not a trivial decision yet it leaves many open questions. When will the Linear Collider be built? What resources will Fermilab need to devote? How does this change if the Linear Collider is not built at Fermilab?

There are many opportunities for excitement in flavor and neutrino physics, and in particle astrophysics. Perhaps these need other enhancements to the accelerator complex? Accelerators are also the basis for many directions in experimental science. How might all these components fit together?

Page 6: F Fermilab: The Future Fermilab Users Meeting Hugh Montgomery June 3, 2003.

fGoal of the Committee

There is one certainty and many uncertainties;

the role for Fermilab will change, but how?

In order to facilitate a broad and open discussion of this future, the Director has appointed a committee of scientists drawn from the Fermilab staff and elsewhere. Over the next few months they will work to map out some options available for Fermilab.

Page 7: F Fermilab: The Future Fermilab Users Meeting Hugh Montgomery June 3, 2003.

fCharge to the Committee

• The first recommendation of the 2001-2 HEPAP Subpanel on Long-Range Planning for U.S. High Energy Physics was “that the United States take steps to remain a world leader in the vital and exciting field of particle physics, through a broad program of research focused on the frontiers of matter, energy, space, and time.” As the largest U.S. laboratory dedicated to High Energy Physics, Fermilab has a special responsibility to develop the research facilities needed to implement that recommendation.

• The HEPAP Subpanel also recommended that the U.S. participate in the linear collider, wherever it is built in the world, and that the U.S. prepare to bid to host such a facility. Fermilab is working within the framework of the international and US steering groups to develop a global project, and to work out what it would take to host such a facility here. Finally, the HEPAP Subpanel argued persuasively that to address the range of compelling scientific issues the field needs a broad range of experimental strategies and techniques. Many of the experiments that exist as possibilities on the roadmap would be most easily done at Fermilab.

Page 8: F Fermilab: The Future Fermilab Users Meeting Hugh Montgomery June 3, 2003.

fCharge to the Committee

• I would like the Long-range Planning Committee to develop in detail a few realistically achievable options for the Fermilab program in the period 2011-2015 under each possible outcome for the linear collider. The goal in developing each option should be to optimize the opportunities available at Fermilab in this period for high energy physicists to answer the most important questions in our field. The options should be guided by the priorities for the field as laid out in the HEPAP Subpanel and in the HEPAP response to the Office of Science on the facilities plan.

• The committee should develop scenarios for each of the two cases spelled out by the HEPAP Subpanel.

• A linear collider project will be built here, starting late in this decade with international support and organization.

• The linear collider will be built offshore with substantial participation from U.S. High Energy Physics.

• In either case, you should make the following additional assumptions.

• Fermilab will have a central role in an active U.S. research program at the LHC, both as host of the US-CMS collaboration and as developer of accelerator upgrade plans.

• Fermilab will carry out the presently approved program of experiments following approval from the national program.

Page 9: F Fermilab: The Future Fermilab Users Meeting Hugh Montgomery June 3, 2003.

fCharge to the Committee

• The context for the plan includes the following:

• The plan should fit into, and be a major component of, the twenty-year roadmap for the field described in recommendation two of the HEPAP Subpanel report. Another important planning document is the recent HEPAP submission to the Office of Science for the facilities plan.

• The initial assets that will make it possible to build a strong future with available resources are the existing facilities at Fermilab, the strengths of the existing Fermilab staff, and the active participation of a strong Fermilab user community.

• I would like the Committee to give an interim progress report in time to discuss the important issues at the Aspen meeting of the Fermilab Physics Advisory Committee. We will develop a schedule for the committee to write a final report after the initial meetings to organize the work.
