  1. Fermilab Neutrino ProgramJim StraitNeutrino Discussion at CERN26 November 2013

  2. Fermilab Accelerator Complex LBNE

  3. Ongoing Accelerator Upgrades Proton Improvement Plan (2012-2018): double beam power of the proton source by increasing rep-rate 40  80 kW @ 8 GeV Muon Campus (2013-2018): convert antiproton source to meet needs of the muon program LBNE Main Injector (being commissioned now): double beam power by stacking beam in the Recycler and decreasing MI cycle time 350  700 kW @ 120 GeV

  4. Next Accelerator Upgrades Reorientation of “Project X” (now Proton Improvement Plan II) to focus on beam power for neutrinos. New 800 MeV SRF, CW capable linac: 80  120 kW @ 8 GeV 0.7  1.2 MW @ 80 -120 GeV Ready before LBNE starts 0.8 to 3 GeV & 3 to 8 GeV linacs replaces Booster 1.2  2.3 MW @ 60 -120 GeV ~5 years years later Plan to be presented at P5 meeting, 16 Dec at BNL

  5. U.S. neutrino program Topic for this presentation Accelerator based • Neutrino Experiments using Fermilab Accelerators • T2K • ICARUS • … Reactor based • Daya Bay, Double CHOOZ, … Neutrino-less double beta decay • EXO, MAJORANA demonstrator, CUORE, …

  6. _ Neutrino Program (both n and n beams) Measure and characterize the pattern of neutrino masses and mixings: • MINOS / MINOS+  NOvA  LBNE Discover if the situation is more complex than 3 neutrinos with Standard Model Interactions: • MINOS / MINOS+  NOvA  LBNE • MiniBooNE  MicroBooNE Proposed:  ICARUS, LAr1-ND  nSTORM Neutrino interactions / cross sections and neutrino engineering measurements that make the above points possible: • MiniBooNE  MINERvA  MicroBooNE  LBNE ND / Proposed:  ICARUS, LAr1-ND  nSTORM

  7. Evolution of U.S. Neutrino Experiments operating since 2005 350 kW (>400 kW) MINOS (far) at 2340 ft level 5 kton MINOS (near) 735 km (on-axis) MINERvA MiniBooNE

  8. Evolution of U.S. Neutrino Experiments under construction online 2014 700 kW operating since 2005 350 kW (>400 kW) MINOS (far) at 2340 ft level 5 kton NOvA (far) Surface 14 kton MINOS (near) 735 km (on-axis) 810 km (off-axis) MINERvA NOvA (near) MiniBooNE MicroBooNE under construction (LAr TPC)

  9. Evolution of U.S. Neutrino Experiments under construction online 2013 700 kW operating since 2005 350 kW (>400 kW) MINOS (far) at 2340 ft level 5 kton NOvA (far) Surface 14 kton MINOS (near) 735 km (on-axis) 810 km (off-axis) 1300 km (on-axis) MINERvA LBNE Far detector at 4850 ft level >10 kton  35 kton LAr TPC 1.2 MW  2.3 MW proton beam New beamline Near detector NOvA (near) MiniBooNE MicroBooNE under construction (LAr TPC)
