  6. Experimental Facilities Beamline Final Design Plan • Experimental facilities Beamline Final Design Plan has been developed to define the beamline design completion schedule after CD-3. • Same cost-weighting method is used to compute the design completion percentage at each conceptual, preliminary, and final design phase.

  7. FY09 Goals and Key Activities since CD-3 • Develop Experimental Facilities Beamline Final Design Plan • Recruit key beamline and R&D staff, including group leaders, scientists, and engineers • Complete conceptual design of all six project beamlines, interacting with beamline advisory teams • Establish R&D infrastructure including R&D labs in Bldg.703 and R&D beamline at NSLS

  8. XFD Staff Hiring • Recruiting high-quality staff is a major, high-priority activity for XFD for FY09 • 24 staff have joined XFD since Sep.2008, and total staff is now 34 (incl. two to start in Jan.-Feb.), including: • All 6 group leaders and all 6 scientists for project beamlines; • 11 staff for experimental R&D; • 3 beamline engineers. • Offer in progress for: • 1 beamline engineer • Positions to be filled: • Nanopositioning postdoc; • Mirror metrology scientist; • 3 additoinal beamline engineers; • Scientific computing and controls. 31 heads 11/30/09 FTEs

  10. Six Project Beamlines at NSLS-II Inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) 100m long Hard x-ray nanoprobe (HXN) • Initial suite of insertion device beamlines • World-leading characteristics • Meet the needs of user community • Enable new science 1 meV 0.1 meV Coherent hard x-ray scattering (CHX) Coherent soft x-ray scattering/polarization (CSX) X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) 30m long hutch Sub-mm resolution x-ray spectroscopy (SRX)

  11. Beamline Advisory Teams (BATs) • Beamline Advisory Team represents a segment of community to advise XFD during design & construction and to participate in commissioning of beamline • All BATs have met at least twice in FY09: • Excellent progresses made on scientific and technical scopes • Beamline conceptual designs have been completed SRX BAT, October 30, 2008 XPD BAT, November 24, 2008 IXS BAT, December 5, 2008 HXN BAT, January 26, 2009 CHX BAT, December 9, 2008 CSX BAT, January 8, 2009

  12. Project Beamline Conceptual Designs • Beamline configuration and optics layouts have been developed; • In collaboration with ASD ME group, heat load analyses have been performed on x-ray optics and other white beam components; These analyses are critical to guide the beamline conceptual designs; Such analyses are continuing in the detailed engineering design phase beyond the conceptual design level; • End-station instrument concepts have been developed; • BAT review meetings have been completed to review the beamline conceptual designs during the July 8 – August 11 period; • Internal safety reviews of the beamline conceptual designs have been completed, with the objective to encourage integration of safety considerations early during the beamline designs; • Beamline conceptual design reports have been completed; • Successful external technical review of beamline conceptual designs Oct. 13-14; Committee report received.

  13. Example: Hard X-ray Nanoprobe Beamline • Following advices from the HXN BAT and the EFAC, the beamline optical system has been designed to include two secondary source locations to accommodate broader variety of nanofocusing optics; • Newly refined beamline design also allows correction of stigmatism between horizontal and vertical sources. white beam slits IUV20 horizontal collimating mirror horizontal Si(111) mono storage ring wall pink beam slits vertical focusing mirror horizontal focusing mirror vertical flat mirror secondary source aperture 1 remote end-station secondary source aperture 2 focusing optics vertical high-res. mono (for mature phase) storage ring floor detectors sample Y.

  14. Interface Management in Beamline Designs • Interfacing with ASD and CFD is an essential and integral part of beamline design activities; • Interface activities are managed at several levels: • Weekly project business meetings; • Interface managers meetings; • Joint technical working groups/mtgs in specific areas: • Insertion device (ASD, XFD, NSLS) • Heat load analysis (XFD, ASD/ME) • LOB, satellite building (CFD, XFD) • Beamline safety reviews (XFD, ESH) • XFD Beamine & Interface Manager is the main contact for all interface activities for experimental facilities; • Requirements, specifications, interface documentation IXS IVU optimization O.

  16. Lab Office Building (LOB) Programming Requirements • Sought community input on LOB programming requirements, through expanded staff meetings and town meetings; • Created a list of lab equipment needed to support user science, leading to minimum requirements for lab space • Estimated the number and types of offices required by fully developed facility; Defined adjacency requirements for offices and labs; • Sought architect input for laboratory design and layout.

  21. Overall Cost and Schedule Performance WBS 1.04 – Experimental Facilities: • Cost: under budget (positive cost variance) due to delays in hiring but improving as staff got on board over last few months; • Schedule: slightly behind schedule but catching up since April. CPI = 1.16 SPI = 0.95

  22. Risk Analysis & Management

  23. FY10 Goals • Complete hiring of beamline and R&D staff scientists and engineers • Enhance communications with scientific community by organizing user workshops, and discussions with stake holders • Complete initial high-energy-resolution optics test at the R&D beamline • Complete MLL deposition system assembly and initial MLL growth runs • Enhance interface with ASD on insertion devices & engineering resources • Complete preliminary design reports of all six project beamlines, interacting with beamline advisory teams • Develop Experimental Facilities Beamline Readiness Plan for project completion (CD-4) • Continue to work with community and plan for additional beamlines at NSLS-II

  24. Issues • High resolution optics R&D programs, 1 nm and 0.1 meV, are very challenging; Outcomes may have impact on beamline designs •  Plan to design beamlines with built-in flexibility to accommodate R&D outcomes. • Beamline design activities will become more rigorous in the coming months; Requiring focused attention among staff and closer coordination •  Plan to aggressively monitor progress and foster coordination; • Recruiting and retaining best staff in XFD •  Hiring in the coming months will focus on optical metrology expert, and remaining beamline scientists and engineers. • Managing priorities and interacting with BATs •  Proactively manage expectations from BATs within budget constraints •  Maintain open and transparent discussions with BAT so difficult decisions can be made with BAT inputs.

  25. Conclusions • Excellent progress made in staffing, x-ray optics R&D, and beamline designs • Beamline design is on schedule and on budget, with most planned staffing in place; Additional hires in progress • Beamline Final Design Plan developed • Scientific community and BATs well engaged • Risks well understood, and mitigation plans in place • XFD staff excited and eager to work with scientific community to design and build the cutting-edge experimental facilities
