Foundation: TevatronFoundation: Tevatron

Greatest window into new phenomena until LHC is on.

Strong collaborations, viable through 2009 and beyond. About 80 archival papers/year and 80 PhD thesis/year.

Record luminosities and sensitivity to new physics with 9 accelerators and 200,000 controllable elements.

Now dominant on the world stage at every conference.

When does the program stop?

The “natural” life without the LHC would be several more years, roughly at the end of “doubling data in three years”

Very difficult to predict when it will be overtaken by LHC. Prudent to plan running in 2010 – depends on funding scenarios.

Criteria for a realistic planCriteria for a realistic plan

Work with and support the US HEP community. Must do best-in-the-world physics in the chosen

domain. Must be a long range roadmap: positions us well

for a couple of decades giving us many choices. Base plan should avoid discontinuous jumps

(>$100M) per year in funding: hard lift for HEP within national context.

Takes into account the complexity of the world we live in, in particular the “rules of the road”

99

Criteria: rules of the roadCriteria: rules of the road

Operating facilities with essential programs get top priority. Example: Tevatron running

Next priority is construction projects with a budget and a schedule (except at the very beginning)

R&D programs are squeezable when confronted with the top priorities for both the Administration and Congress.

1010

Criteria: US is badly positionedCriteria: US is badly positioned

We are shutting our major facilities (program done): Tevatron, B-factory, CESR

We are not building any large projects. NOvA is the exception and it is modest ($260M for both detector and accelerator)

Problem: no driver to maintain/increase the resources for the field. We need a realistic, robust plan!!

HEP world: non-acceleratorHEP world: non-accelerator

The big questions for non –accelerator experiments: nature of neutrinos (neutrino-less double beta decay, reactors), dark energy (DES, SNAP, LSST), gravity (LIGO, LISA), direct dark matter detection (CDMS, Xenon, COUPP….), proton decay, origin of cosmic rays

US program has done well so far: discovery of dark energy, CMB fluctuations (COBE, WMAP), baryon acoustic oscillations (SDSS), dark matter search limits (CDMS, Xenon, COUPP….), cosmic rays (Pierre Auger), GLAST about to be launched

1414

HEP world: non-acceleratorHEP world: non-accelerator

US program is well positioned: Direct Dark Matter: CDMS-25kg, Noble Liquids,

COUPP Neutrino-less double beta decay: Majorana, EXO Dark energy: DES, SNAP, LSST

DOE’s role is partial: many of these activities supported by other agencies (NSF, NASA) and lead to program anomalies: can we do dark energy and not gravity?, or CMB?, etc.

Major contribution to the accelerator. We are now helping to commission LHC.

To continue to be welcome, US and Fermilab must contribute to detector and accelerator improvements.

Aim: critical mass at Fermilab, as good as going to CERN (once detectors completed).

HEP world: the ILCHEP world: the ILC

Strong world-wide collaboration on ILC: by far the easiest machine beyond the LHC – CLIC and muon colliders are more difficult.

ILC will be it – provided LHC tells us the

richness is there.

Technology is broadly applicable – R&D on the technology is important: electron cloud effects, reliable high gradient cavities, final focus….

2424

HEP world: the ILC in the USHEP world: the ILC in the US

Fermilab and US community will continue with ILC and SCRF R&D – probably on stretched timescale.

Reality: the likelihood of building ILC in the US is much reduced after the latest round of Congressional actions on ILC, ITER.

We won’t stop working on this. We need a solid foundation before we can dream.

2525

HEP world: intensity frontierHEP world: intensity frontier

LHC and non-accelerator experiments tell us nothing about the neutrino mass hierarchy and CP violation, little about couplings of any new particles discovered at LHC or charged lepton flavor violation

These issues can be studied at the intensity frontier through a large and rich variety of experiments: essential for a unified view

2626

HEP world: intensity frontierHEP world: intensity frontier

The general rule: If the LHC discovers new particles – precision

experiments tell about the physics behind through rates/couplings to standard particles

If the LHC does not see new particles – precision experiments with negligible rates in the SM are the only avenue to probe higher energies

Additionally, neutrino oscillations coupled with charged lepton number violating processes constrain GUT model building

2727

Fermilab and the intensity frontierFermilab and the intensity frontier

We have designed a program based on a new injector for the complex. Can exploits the large infrastructure of accelerators:

Main Injector (120 GeV), Recycler (8GeV), Debuncher (8 GeV), Accumulator (8 GeV) – would be very expensive to reproduce today

New source uses ILC technology and helps development of the technology in the US

Provides the best program in neutrinos, and rare decays in the world

Positions the US program for an evolutionary path leading to neutrino factories and muon colliders

Initial configuration exploits alignment with ILC But it is expandable (we will make sure the

hooks are there) Three times the rep rate Three times the pulse length Three times the number of klystrons

Would position the program for a multi-megawatt source for intense muon beams at low <8 GeV energies – very difficult with a synchrotron.

Project X: it is the best sourceProject X: it is the best source

Neutrino program at 120 GeV (2.3 MW); 55% recycler available at 8 GeV (200kW)

We can develop existing 8 GeV rings to deliver and tailor beams, allowing full duty cycle for experiments with the correct time structure: K decays, e conversion, g-2.

High rate experiments do not decrease protons-on

target for the neutrino program at 120 GeV.

3232

Example: neutrino strategyExample: neutrino strategy

Build NOvA. Together with T2K and reactor: best shot at neutrino oscillation parameters, first glimpse of mass hierarchy if sin2213 is large enough

Replace MINOS by 5 kton LAr detector on axis. Together with NOvA, by far best reach into angle CP and mass hierarchy for full decade

Develop caverns/detectors for DUSEL – with new beam-line from Project X it is the ultimate super-beam experiment (water or LAr)

If neutrino factory is needed – Project X is the ideal source.

Could start with Booster beam: already better than MECO experiment

If signal found at 10 -16 level: study A dependence, with higher beam levels

If signal not found, extend search with higher beam levels – full Project X 200 kW

Further power levels with Project X if 8 GeV power is increased.

Funding requirements: Project XFunding requirements: Project X

We will provide the financial data that P5 requires. Probably should start with the February 4th FY09 President’s budget request. A quick approximate preview:

Pre-omnibus, for FY08, we had planned on a funding level of $372 and $10M of carry over for a total of $383M. NOvA was at $36M and ILC R&D at $24M.

For FY09, assuming ILC goes to half and that NOvA builds up as was intended to $65M, after inflation we would need a budget of $400M in FY09.

4040

Funding requirements: Project XFunding requirements: Project X

When the Tevatron shuts down, $60M becomes available (ramp down is not instantaneous). When NOvA ramps down, $65M becomes available. Assume also $25M squeeze out of ongoing program during construction.

The above add to $150M/year out of $400M FY09 dollars equivalent budget level.

Peak expenditures on Project X will be about $250M

requiring a total lab budget of $500M FY09$ during construction ($250M of Project X goes also to national labs and universities). Assumed project cost $1B FY09$.

Funding scenariosFunding scenarios

Not everything fits in the low budget scenarios: you have difficult choices to make; balance vs. strength of contributions

Problem is immediate in the FY09 lowest budget scenario: there are no capital funds. They have to be made up by shutting facilities or shrinking the field.

4343

Variations on a $688M budgetVariations on a $688M budget

In this budget no ILC would fit. Probably cannot fit major projects in all three areas without shrinking drastically.

Key decision: do we continue to run any accelerator complex? A physics question now and in the long term.

BIG ASSUMPTION: What can be done with $320M to Fermilab and $370M to the rest of the HEP community as in FY08. What can we do with this at Fermilab? You have a more global question to answer.

Immediate choice in FY09: run the Tevatron or build NOvA (there is no money in the omnibus now for NOvA)

4444

Variations: scenario 1Variations: scenario 1

Stop the Tevatron. Build NOvA ($30M in FY09, $60M/year until built)

When finished, build experiments at $60M/year: MINOS II (LAr), e conversion, K experiments.

Pros: world class competitive experiments until the end of next decade when other facilities overtake us; high energy test beams, front end same as with Project X

Cons: miss Tevatron physics opportunity, international damage, limited platform (injectors are old), minimal R&D on ILC and SCRF, limited participation in JDEM, LHC upgrades

4545

Variations: scenario 2Variations: scenario 2

Run the Tevatron through 2010, stop NOvA construction.

By 2011, stop all accelerators for 5 years. $60M becomes available from the Tevatron, $50M from the rest of the complex for a total of $110M/year. Build SNuMI and new beam line (combined $300M) for a 1.2 MW 120 GeV proton beam program to DUSEL. $250M goes towards detector (it is really cheating since not enough….)

Additional experiments become possible, but would need additional funding

4646

Variations: scenario 2Variations: scenario 2

Pros: leads to a world competitive program at the end of next decade. Reuses infrastructure. Does not quite fit since DUSEL is expensive.

Cons: Eventually overtaken by upgraded facilities elsewhere: JPARC upgrades, SPL in Europe capable of driving neutrino factories and/or muon colliders. No test beams for several years. Extremely exposed position when not running facilities, minimal ILC and SCRF R&D, JDEM or LHC upgrades.

4747

Variations: scenario 3Variations: scenario 3

Run the Tevatron for 2009 and 2010. Give up on neutrinos altogether. Run an 8 GeV program out of the Booster for rare decays, e conversion, using $60M freed by the Tevatron shut down to build the experiments.

Pros: keeps a world competitive program in rare decays and e conversion through the decade.

Cons: gives up on neutrino program, no DUSEL program, no high energy test beams, overtaken by other programs with better long range plans

4848

Variations: scenario 4Variations: scenario 4

Run the Tevatron for 2009 and 2010. Stop the US accelerator program and commit to do experiments in Europe (high energy frontier) and in Japan (intensity frontier). To earn our keep, build accelerators/detectors supporting the US community abroad.

Pros: fewer headaches. Strong participation in LHC upgrades, JDEM.

Cons: no domestic facilities, probably no long term recovery possible, off-shore program might compete poorly with domestic facilities in other sciences.

4949

Variations: scenario 5Variations: scenario 5

Run the Tevatron for 2009 and 2010. Stop NOvA. Stop the US accelerator program, reduce the size of Fermilab and join CERN as member state (if they will have us…)

Pros: stable platform, increased CERN budget, can

tackle future facilities, one world lab, fewer headaches

Cons: likely that the labs and university programs will shrink from the sense that we “give $$ to CERN for HEP”; one of twenty countries implies not much control/direction for the DOE, will US sign and stick by treaty?

5050

Variations on a $688M budgetVariations on a $688M budget

It is possible to optimize the program at any budget level. However, accelerator facilities have a scale set elsewhere in the world and need certain scale to compete.

At the omnibus level – lots of variations (different nightmares) – none very attractive. Variation 1 has the best chance of maintaining a vital accelerator based program in the US. But predictably it will be overtaken by other facilities built on stronger platforms if the budget level is maintained.

5151

ConclusionConclusion

It is possible to design a base program that satisfies the criteria listed earlier in this talk:

Runs the Tevatron until overtaken by LHC Builds NOvA as first step in world class neutrino program Builds Project X as the best high intensity platform in the world Develops the technology for the ILC in the US through Project X

and positions the US well for an ILC anywhere Supports particle astrophysics and LHC upgrades Has a “long throw” in terms of future possibilities at the intensity

frontier (neutrino factory) and energy frontier (muon collider)
