  1. Physics Opportunities and Future Facilities • Neutrino Matter • Oscillations • Interacting Matter • Nucleon Structure • Quark-Gluon Matter • The Source of Matter • Search for the Higgs and SUSY M. Shaevitz - Fermilab/Columbia Univ

  2. Making Neutrinos Matter • Standard Model assumes that neutrinos are massless • No symmetry property or theoretical reason for mn = 0 • Neutrinos are partners of the massive charged leptons • Could imply right-handed n’s, Majorana n = n, or sterile n’s t m entnm ne • Cosmological Consequences • Neutrinos fill the universe from the Big Bang (109n / m3) Even a small mass (~1 eV) will have effects • Models have hot (n) and coldDark Matter • Massive neutrino affect structure formation such as galaxies and clusters

  3. Neutrino Oscillations • To probe small neutrino masses (<< 1 eV), need Neutrino Oscillation experiments • For a neutrino to oscillate from one flavor to another ( na nb ) • At least one massive neutrino eigenstate which differs from othersDm2= m12 - m22 0 • Neutrinos in nature must be mixtures of these mass types Lepton number violation or mixing parameterized by q • There are 3-generations: ne , nm, and nt (and maybe more...the sterile neutrino ns’s ) Prob(na nb) = sin22q sin2(1.27 Dm2 L(m)/E(MeV)) • CP violating process can also occur if d0 

  4. Three Indications of Oscillations Sun Earth • Solar n’s 108 kilometers Cosmic RayShower 30 km • Atmospheric n’s • Los Alamos Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND) neutrinos Pions ProtonBeam 30 m Detector

  5. Checks of These Indications Over the Next 3-10 years • Questions that will be answered: • Are all three indications really neutrino oscillations? • Which flavors are oscillating? • Are there oscillations to sterile n’s? • What are the oscillation parameters Dm2, sin22q • 10% measurements • Restrict to one solar solution MiniBooNE,ORLaND NuMI/Minos, K2K and CNGS Super-K,SNO,Borexino, Kamland

  6. Booster MainInjector Use protons from the 8 GeV booster Neutrino Beam <En>~ 1 GeV 12m sphere filled with mineral oil and PMTs located 500m from source Sterile Neutrinos • New measurements will address if oscillations are to sterile neutrinos • Super-K: p0production , NuMI/Minos: NC/CC ratio , CNGS: Direct nm nt , SNO: Solar NC rate • Important to check LSND results • If all three hints are confirmed, then need at least 4 n species • LSND Dm2 large  Opportunity to probe nm,e nt and CP ORLaND (Oak Ridge Large Neutrino Detector)at the Spallation Neutron Source MiniBooNE Exp. at Fermilab 1540 tons Liq. Scint.(18 times LSND)6730 PMTs

  7. Possible Future Step:Muon Storage Ring: “n-Factory” • Provides a super intense neutrino beam with a wide range of energies. • Precision n oscillation studies • “Fixed target” n experiments • First high intensity electron neutrino beam. nenm or t • Highly collimated beam Very long baseline experimentspossible Fermilab to California Fermilab to Cern/Japan • Initial step towards a Multi-TeV m+m- Collider

  8. Recent Machine and Physics Study • Advantages of a n-Factory • Unique facility: High intensity n, m, p • Staged program in energy and intensity • “Entry level” machine 20 GeV@1019/yr • Tune the machine and detector parameters Physics  Energy  Intensity  Mass detector • Key measurements of a n-factory • Measure Dm232 , q23 , q13 to 1% • Determine mass hierarchy measure the sign of Dm232 • Measure d ( CP violation parameter ) Unique access to nenm or t • Goal for the machine study • 21020 m decay/yr at 50 GeV • Fermilab to SLAC/LBNL (2900km) • Conclusion: “The result of this study clearly indicates that a neutrino source based on the concepts, which are presented here, is technically feasible.” http://www.fnal.gov/projects/muon_collider/nu-factory

  9. n Factory:CP phase d Neutrino Mixing Matrix • In simple 3-n scenario with one dominant Dm2 • Assume: Atmosph: nm nt and Solar: ne nm (Ignoring LSND) Solar: q12 Atmospheric: q23 n Factory: q13 ( ne nt) n Factory:q13 ( ne nm) n Factory: Sign of Dm232

  10. Current Limits Future Limits n-Factory nenmSensitivity • Can reach sin22q13 0.001 for 21020 m-decay

  11. nenm Earth Matter (and CP) Effects for nenm • For long baseline experiments, matter effects change the oscillation formula: • ne e  ne e NC and CC • nm e  nm e NC only • Oscillation probability is modified depending on sign of Dm2 = m32-m22 • Measure sign of Dm322 to determine if m32 > m22

  12. Neutrino Factory Parameters vs Physics Reach

  13. Other Physics Opportunities at a n-Factory • Near detector (50 - 100m from storage ring) • Large event samples (~20 million events in 1m D2 target) • n flux well understood • Large ne component • Weak mixing angle measurements 10 better • Neutral/charged current ratio and ne scattering • Exotic searches • Neutral heavy leptons, n magnetic moments, anomalous t production • Charm-factory: D0 - D0 mixing ... And a new Era forQCDmeasurements with neutrinosInteracting Matter

  14. Interacting Matter: QCD at a n-Factory • Neutrinos are “flavor-selecting” allowing measurement of individual parton distributions. • 100 present luminosities • Kinematic range overlaps CCFR, JINR & is in the high x region n-Factory Structure Functions: • Precision parton distributions • Precision tests of QCD (needs more precise theory!) • Finally! High statistics on light targets  A-dependence studies which rival /complement charged lepton data! Q2 (GeV2) x

  15. QCD and the Structure of the Nucleon • Unprecedented luminosity for the HERA experiments • An energy upgrade to 12 GeV for TJNAF • Along with a n-factoryHigh precision across the entire region! Q2 (GeV2) n-Factory x

  16. Hera at High Luminosity • Precision parton distribitions at very high Q2 • determination of the gluon density • Precision neutral current cross sections • using g-Z interference to test the Standard Model • F2cc and F2bb • The heavy quark sea • e+p charged current DIS • The strange sea Example of Gluon Distributions Q2 = 2000 GeV2 Q2 = 2 GeV2 A complete survey of thepartons in the protonat low x

  17. And at high x... the TJNAF 12-GeV Upgrade • Quark-hadron duality (transition from the QE to DIS regime) • Hadrons in the nuclear medium (color transparency, x>1, ...) • Threshold charm production • Valence quark structure • Spin structure, e.g. A1n 0.0 Deep Inelastic Scattering from polarized 3He (Isgur Model is shown) 12 GeV  lower x 1.0 0.0 At 6 GeV (Proposal 99-117) x

  18. Understanding the Spin of the Nucleon • RHIC Spin:Spin studies with hadrons provide new opportunities • So far, data are consistent with theBjorken Sum Rule, (g1p-g1n)dx : SLAC Experiments: 0.187  0.033 Theory: 0.182 0.005 • Drell-Yan  The spin of the quarks and antiquarks • Gluon-fusion  The spin of the gluon DIS data suggest RHIC may see a large gluon polarization! D G = 1.8  0.6  1.3 • But decomposing the spin: Quark contribution = DS  0.3 Strange contribution = Ds -0.1 • Fixes for “Spin Crisis” • Gluon is polarized: DG > 0 • Anti-quark is polarized

  19. Melting Matter: QCD at High Densities • Explore non-perturbative “vacuum” by melting it  A Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) Temperature scaleT ~  / (1 fm) ~ 200 MeV • Experimental method: Energetic collisions of heavy nuclei • Model Uncertainties: • Non-perturbative regime  Need many independent signatures of phase transition

  20. QCD Phase Transition • Relativistic heavy ion colliders should reach densities and temperatures to produce Quark-Gluon Plasma • Experimental signatures: • Deconfinement • Chiral Symmetry Restoration • Thermal Radiation of Hot Gas • Strangeness and Charm Production • Jet Quenching

  21. Relativistic Heavy Ion Experiments • RHIC • Pb+Pb at 200 GeV / nucleon • LHC • Pb+Pb at 5.5 TeV / nucleon (~ 25 times RHIC energy) CMS STAR plus PHOBOS and Brahms

  22. What Makes the Matter? • Unification of Weak and Electromagnetic Interaction • Mediated by vector bosons associated with SU(2)U(1) group • Spontaneously broken: ElectroWeak Symmetry Breaking (EWSB) • Universal coupling constants (g and g’) or (e and sin2qW) • Heavy W and Z • Precise predictions of electroweak processes • In the minimal model, single Higgs boson causes EWSB • Theoretically, the MHiggs < ~ TeV • More complicated models (supersymmetry, technicolor, extra dimensions ..) • Extra Higgs and/or other heavy particles  Higgs coupling to particles is proportional to mass and thus sets the mass parameters Massless particles “eat” Higgs particles and become heavy

  23. Supersymmetry • Every particle has a super-partner with opposite statistics • Usual fermions have scalar partners • Gauge bosons have spin 1/2 (gaugino) partners • Couplings (weak, E&M, strong) seem to unify at a common scale if supersymmetric equations are used. • Supersymmetry (SUSY) require a Higgs boson below 180 GeV • i.e. in minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model (MSSM) with reasonable parameters, mHiggs = 130 GeV • If SUSY is the source of EWSB, mass scale for SUSY particlesis few hundred GeV (Type of EWSB) • Goal: Measure superparticle mass spectrum • Fermilab Tevatron • LHC • Future e+e- linear colliderm+m- collider

  24. The Main Question • What is the source of EWSB? • Standard Model Higgs boson or • Supersymmetric theory.... MSSM, SUGRA or • Strongly interacting theory.... technicolor, extra dimensions or • Something else?  To answer the above question: 1) Discover the Higgs bosons - may be more than one 2) Experimental verification of the Higgs mechanism 3) Measure mass spectrum of new particles at few 100 GeV scale

  25.

  26. Current Precision Electroweak Measurements • All measurements should agree or “new physics” • Radiative corrections from Higgs loops gives sensitivity to mHiggs • dmW ln(mHiggs) • Measurements: • e+e- Z0(LEP, SLD) • mW (CDF, D0, LEPII) • mtop (CDF, D0) • sin2qWnN (CCFR, NuTeV) Using:mZ = 91.1871  0.0021

  27. MHiggs Appears to be Light • Fit all electroweak data:mHiggs < 245 GeV (95% CL) • Direct search limits from LEPII:mHiggs > 95.2 GeV (95% CL) • Supersymmetric models require:mHiggs < ~180 GeV  Good prospects that Higgs boson will be discovered at Tevatron or LHC

  28. But Low Energy Experiments Can Also Probe High Mass • New “Michel Parameters” experiment at TRIUMF • For m+ e+nm ne, measure energy and angle distribution to 1 part in 104 • Measure the “Michel” parameters r, d, , and  with a precision 3 to 10 times better than previous.

  34. Possible Higgs Studies at a e+e- Linear Collider • Determination of mHiggs , GHiggs , and Higgs spin • Accurate determination of Higgs couplings as a fundamental test of the Higgs mechanism: • SM fermion Yukawa couplings to Higgs: gHff = mf /  with 2 = 2 GF • Study Hbb, Hcc, Htt, HWW, and HZZ couplings through branching ratios • Study Htt through BRggand s(e+e- t t H)  g2Htt / 4p • Reconstruction of the Higgs potential by determination of the Higgs self-couplings: • (e+e- Z HH , ne ne HH)

  36. Standard Model vs MSSM Higgs • Given a set of MSSM parameters Branching ratios of Higgs can discriminate from the SM • MSSM Parameters: • mA = mass of CP odd scalar • tan b = <2>/ <1> tan b 500 mA (GeV)

  37. Extra Dimensions • Inspired by multi-dimensional string theory unification with gravity. • For r << R and n extra dimensions FGravity= M-(2+n) m1m2 / r2+n • Matching constraint for r = R (4pGN)-1 = RnM2+n • Take quantum gravity scale M to be ~TeV  R~ mm (n=2) to fermi (n=7) • Graviton (G) effects may be experimentally observable • Missing energy processese+e-  g G or q q  gG • Deviations due to G exchangee+e-  f f

  38. Tevatron Run II 3500 2100 Constraints on Extra Dimensions • Missing-energy constraints on extra dimension models: 95% confidence limits on R(cm) and M(GeV) Source

  39. The Energy Frontier:Very Large Hadron Collider (VLHC) • Motivation: • If LHC sees EWSB, VLHC can explore it in depth or • If physics is beyond LHC, VLHC is needed to see it. Probe ~ 100 TeV scale  10 mfm • pp collider in a 200 km ring • Start with low field magnets: 2 Tesla  ECM = 40 TeV • Upgrade to high field magnets 12 Tesla  ECM = 240 TeV 200 Km Fermilab Also e+e-or AA  “OMNITRON”

  40. The Energy Frontier:m+m- Collider Advantages: • Multi-TeV collisions of fundamental point particles • Follow-on to muon storage ring • Negligible synchrotron radiation  Circular rings much smaller than linear/hadron colliders • Coupling to Higgs particles is 40,000 times larger than e+e- • No “beamstrahlung” • Energy spread ~ 0.003% • g-2 energy calibration @ 10-6  dMHiggs ~ 50 MeV dMW ~ 6 MeV

  41. nmne at the same Dm2 as nmnt CKM-like Mixing Matrix for Leptons Neutrino Oscillation Formalism • Most analyses assume 2-generation mixing • But we have 3-generations: ne , nm, and nt (and maybe even more ….. the sterile neutrino ns’s ) (In this 3-generation model, there are 3 Dm2’s but only two are independent.) • At each Dm2, there can be oscillations between all the neutrino flavors with different mixing angle combinations. For example:(3 sets of 3 equations like these forDm223>>Dm212 )

  42. nent Measurements at a n-Factory • Great consistency check since sensitive to Dm322 and sin22q13 • In scenarios where MiniBooNE confirms LSND nent very sensitive to CP violating phase d

  43.

  47. n-Factory Physics Motivation “A neutrino factory is a unique facility for neutrino oscillations... [that] will provide the mechanism for discoveries in the latter part of the decade.” • High flux, well collimated beam of neutrinos • Extra long baseline experiments can be done • Matter effects start to play a role • nt appearance measurements much more feasible • Key questions that neutrino factory can address: • Sort out the mixing matrix - Unique access to nenm or t • Fill in the sub-dominant components • Determine mass hierarchy  Matter effects • Are there sterile neutrinos; if so, how many? • Precision measurements of Dm2 and sin22q values • CP violation may be measurable

  48. n-Factory SuperK/Minos/K2K nenm Oscillation Measurements at a n-Factory • For the atmospheric Dm2 region, need to use nenm to determine sin22q13 • By using nenm , signal becomes a search for wrong-sign muons which allows good sensitivity to low sin22q13 and low background • Can reach sin22q13 0.001 for 21020 m-decay

  49. e+e- Linear Collider • e+e- Linears Colliders could offer a complementary probe to study EWSB physics  Interaction of fundamental point particles • Next Linear Collider: • ECM = 0.5 - 1.5 TeV • Warm RF acceleration @ 50 MV/m • 20 km  1000 GeV • Tesla: • ECM = 0.5 - 0.8 TeV • Superconducting RF acceleration @ 25 - 40 MV/m • 20 km  500 - 800 GeV • Also CLIC: • ECM = ~3 TeV • Two beam acceleration • 40 km  3000 GeV
