  1. ASTeC and the DL Campus Horizon Mike Poole ASTeC Director Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  2. Role of AST in CCLRC • Core Business for CCLRC (DL + RAL) • 40+ years expertise in electron, proton and ion accelerators • Design, build and operate Large User Facilities • latterly photon and neutron sources: SRS ISIS • Develop next generationsolutions • DIAMONDESS ERLP/4GLS ( ILC, NF, ……..) • Underpinning R&D programmes • Technology infrastructure • Interdisciplinary skills plus operational scale Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  3. Background • R&D skill bases in Facility Departments had declined • Accelerator Science and Technology Centre (ASTeC) created in 2001: • initially 20 staff: £750kpa • now 55 staff (accelerator specialists only): £7-8M pa • Centre of Expertise for R&D studies (skill base) • Expansion through SR02 awards to CCLRC + PPARC • Creation of PPARC Accelerator Institutes (2004) • Daresbury Science and Innovation Campus (2006) Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  4. ASTeC Organisational Structure • Five Groups: • Accelerator Physics (Susan Smith) (14) +1 • Intense Beams (Chris Prior) (7) +1 • RF and Diagnostics (Peter McIntosh) (18) +1 • Magnetics and Radiation Sources (Jim Clarke) (6) +1 • Vacuum Science (Joe Herbert) (7) • Restricted to AST specialisms - not CCLRC engineering etc • Innovative style of Sci-TechCentre within CCLRC • Internal income from SRS, 4GLS • External income from PPARC, RC Basic Technology, DLS, EU… • Funds activities in ISIS, CLF, EID - and external collaborators Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  5. ASTeC Sponsored Programmes • Linear collider - ILC: LC-ABD • Neutrino factory - MICE, design concepts, proton driver, muon systems, targets • Light sources - ERLP,4GLS, FELs • Neutron sources - MW studies, proton driver, FETS, targets • SRS and ISIS support role • Generic R&D (eg laser-plasma projects, FFAG) • Underpinning technology (eg undulators, NEG pumps, (S)RF systems etc) Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  6. Planned ASTeC Expenditure (06/07) Particle physics AST split between DL and RAL Light source activity is DL based Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  7. Next Generation Light Source • DIAMOND does not satisfy full range of UK science • Multi-source, fs regime pulses of high brightness needed • Linac based solution utilises ERL technology • 4GLS design concept has evolved over 4 years • CDR published April 2006 - TDR phase entered • R&D challenges for maximum performance Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  8. Proposed 4GLS Schematic Layout • Synchronised (10 fs) multi-source facility • Bends, Ids, FELs 600 MeV, 100 mA 750-950 MeV, 1 kA Scope under (cost) review Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  9. The ERL Prototype (ERLP) Project A physics and technology DEMONSTRATOR Partnership: CCLRC (SRD, ASTeC, CLF)) HEIs (Manchester/Liverpool/Strathclyde) Jefferson Lab, Stanford, FZR Principal challenges: • Beam transport optics - fs bunch compression, CSR, wakes • High peak intensity DC photo-gun • Upgraded TESLA linac modules • Diagnostics and: • Lack of experience - raise UK expertise Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  10. ERLP Layout in Tower Building Cost = £15M Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  11. ERLP - Component Layout Chirped beam compression ~100 fs FEL included Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  12. ERLP/4GLS Progress ERLP • Design challenges overcome - S2E simulation and engineering solutions • Construction advanced - but delayed by commercial contracts • Commissioning systems commenced in 2006 • Initial deliverables (eg recovery) to be completed by mid-2007 ? • Accelerator and photon science exploitation planning 4GLS • CDR completed (major ASTeC input) • TDR initiated (including cost estimates) : complete in ~1 year • Parallel R&D programme being established This activity is crucial to the Campus Horizon - need for new CI role Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  13. Strategic Position on Light Sources • ERLP will be first energy recovery device in Europe • Major skill base established (AST and FELs) • World leading design adopted • Technology challenges - performance and cost (guns, modules) • Technology infrastructure not yet in place (eg test facilities) • IRUVX Consortium founded and EUROFEL grant in place • Future exploitation of ERLP to be defined (major bids ?) Cockcroft Institute role initiated and growing Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  14. BASROC ‘Basic Accelerator Science and Radiation Oncology Consortium’ • First ever non-scaling FFAG demonstration • EMMA - construction of small electron PoP experiment • PAMELA - prototype proton device for medical development (design only) • Issues: resonance crossing and asynchronous acceleration • Outline design of EMMA completed (international input) • Use of ERLP as injector • Basic Technology Fund awarded: (not yet public !) • EMMA - £5.6M Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  15. EMMA - A Non-Scaling FFAG Demonstrator • Simplified technology but challenging dynamics • Electron model - international baseline design done • Selected lattice:- 10 to 20 MeV42 cells, doublet lattice 37cm cell ~16m circumference RF alternate cells (1.3GHz) • Specification of hardware started • Proposed location - Daresbury ERLP Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  17. Opportunities for the DL Campus • Sustainable skill base is crucial • Major scientific Facility is essential (ie 4GLS) • Funding of experimental programme - prototypes • Integrated SRF design/construction/testing infrastructure • Construct beam test facilities • exploit ERLP investment • add photogun test bed • Build and operate FFAG demonstrator (EMMA) All of these must involve Cockcroft Institute Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  32. The PPARC Accelerator Institutes • ASTeC policy is to collaborate with both CI and JAI • Search for synergies with broad range of ASTeC programmes • ASTeC will fund joint appointments in each Institute • ASTeC is equal partner inCI, participates fully in management and policy issues and now shares a building at DL - CCLRC onCIBoard • CIaward is£7M(2004-2012): Liverpool/Manchester/Lancaster • ASTeC is represented onJAI Executive Committee • JAIaward is£2M(2007-2012) Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole

  33. Cockcroft Institute and ASTeC • Joint proposal to PPARC “seamless involvement of HEI and CCLRC sectors” “equal partnership of 3 HEIs and DL” “CCLRC will align ASTeC staff working on topics consistent with the strategy and aims of the Institute, with the HEI groups in it …” (These ASTeC staff are members of the Institute - CCLRC is a formal member) Emphasis on added value of research links • Grant was to Liverpool as Principal Investigator (MWP is Co-investigator) • £7M from 1/4/04 to 31/3/12 (none direct to CCLRC) • reviews at intervals • partners will sign a collective agreement • John Dainton appointed as first Director • joint appointments will be made • Building 2 sub-lease now signed by CCLRC: ASTeC move completed last week • Formally separate managements but many shared support services. ASTeC Director on CI Management Committee (and CEO/DCEO on CI Board) • Actively seek joint programmes - new culture Cockcroft SAC Nov 06 M W Poole
