  1. A vision for Fermilab Presentation to P5 Fermilab 9/12/05 Pier Oddone

  2. Driven by physics • Where the largest mysteries are: • We know next to nothing about the next accessible energy scale: witness the plethora of models • We know very little about the world of neutrinos • We are ignorant about what dark matter and dark energy are • We have strong clues that these are the hunting grounds for major new discoveries • We also believe there is a deep connection between all these areas

  3. Strategic context: U.S. contribution Domestic accelerator program with no new investment = leading Neutrino Frontier Flavor frontier Energy Frontier X = secondary 2015 2010 2005

  4. Strategic context: U.S. contribution Domestic accelerator program with new and redirected investment = leading Neutrino Frontier Flavor frontier Energy Frontier X = secondary 2015 2010 2005

  5. New Initiatives at Fermilab Overarching Goals: Enable the most powerful attack on the fundamental science questions of our time Provide world class facilities for HEP as part of the global network Develop science and technology for particle physics and cosmology research Specific Goal: make vital contributions to particle physics in the next decade by: Developing a powerful new tool for discovery at the energy frontier (ILC) Maintaining the foremost neutrino program (NOvA, proton driver(s),+)

  6. The Energy Frontier (ILC) • Goals: • Establish all technical components, costs, engineering designs, management structures to enable “early” decision (by 2010). • Position US (and Fermilab) to host the ILC. • Position US (and Fermilab) to play major roles in detector development and physics analysis. • This is the highest priority initiative for the laboratory

  7. The Energy Frontier: why ILC? • We expect the greatest richness at the energy frontier • Few phenomena will manifest themselves in only one machine Purely ILC Purely LHC We will build on the foundation of LHC to make major discoveries at ILC theories

  8. ILC/LHC Physics: new particle • LHC experiments find a new heavy particle, Z’ • Able to show that Z’ mediates a new force of nature • This is a great discovery Notice peak is ½ event per bin per fb-1

  9. LHC/ILC Physics: new particle • ILC measures couplings of Z’ to find out what it means • If here, related to origin of neutrino masses • If here, related to origin of Higgs • If here, Z’ comes from an extra dimension of space • These are great discoveries!

  10. LHC/ILC physics: CP violation • LHC experiments discover several kinds of Higgs particles Example Signal MH = 130 GeV

  11. LHC/ILC: CP violation • From decays of Higgs, ILC experiments discover a new source of CP violation (e.g. angular correlations to specific decays) • Solves the mystery of why matter dominates over antimatter

  12. LHC/ILC physics: dark matter • CDMS detects WIMPS from the galactic halo • LHC discovers a neutralino • Dark matter?

  13. LHC/ILC Physics: dark matter • ILC sparticle measurements determine relic density • Show that the neutralino really is dark matter • And discover that it is only 2/3 of the total!

  14. ILC Research and Development Two main Branches: Develop world class SCRF expertise: module fabrication facility + module test facility “CDR effort”: machine design and site studies Need to integrate our effort into global design

  15. Formal organization begun at LCWS 05 at Stanford in March 2005; Barish becomes director of the GDE The Global Design Effort

  16. SCRF ILC EFFORT • The buildings exist at Fermilab: need infrastructure to be built up: rf power, cryogenics, clean rooms…… • Personnel: need to strengthen RF expertise in the laboratory • We need to organize the effort coherently with other SCRF projects such as the Proton Driver • Integrate into global effort

  17. ILC RF R&D Requirements OTHER HEP (e.g Proton Driver) ILC SC RF Other US SC RF needs ∫FY05-09 ∫FY05-09 Module Assembly Facility $12M $4M Module Fabrication $13M $15M Module Test Facility $9M $35M Test Facility Operations $13M $31M  = $41M  = $91M

  18. ILC “CDR” Effort at Fermilab • Likely lead role in two chapters of the CDR: Main Linac and Site Studies • Need to get more intellectual involvement in the overall design of the machine: involvement of key accelerator physicists • Involvement in other areas: if we are to be the site for the ILC, need broad involvement

  19. RF module assembly and testing Industrialization Looks good! Press for early decision LHC discovery: GO CDR effort 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 Not affordable This induces other program choices Nothing yet Much longer R&D needed ILC Research and DevelopmentRoadmap

  20. While we develop the ILC…. • We must deliver on our “ships of the line”: • The Tevatron Program: CDF and D0 • LHC and CMS • The neutrino program: Minos and MiniBoone • and maintain scientific vitality with a diverse program that includes: • Particle astrophysics • Theory and computing • Technology development

  21. Tevatron Program • Greatest window into new phenomena until LHC is on • 1500 collaborators, 600 students + postdocs • Critically dependent on Luminosity • Doubling time a major consideration

  22. Run II projections L (fb-1) W boson mass (GeV) Standard Model Top quark mass (GeV) Closing in on the the SM Higgs • Sensitivity to low mass Higgs, or • Severely constrain mass LEP Excluded Supersymmetry

  23. And the non-SM Higgs Explore the majority of allowed parameters for the lightest supersymmetric Higgs

  24. Other Windows to New Physics Observation of Bs mixing • Discovery Potential over most of Bs mixing expected region • SUSY Chargino Sensitivity to 270 GeV!

  25. Tevatron: key is luminosity Luminosity history for each fiscal year Integrated luminosity for different assumptions Integrated Luminosity Per detector by Oct 09 Top Line: all run II upgrades work Bottom line: none work ( pink/white bands show the doubling times for the top line)

  26. LHC: delivering on the promise • Huge increase in physics reach: 7 times the energy, 100 times the luminosity of the Tevatron • US Construction Collaboration has been successful: Fermilab + LBNL + BNL. • With increase in energy and luminosity come special challenges (e.g., 300 Megajoules of stored energy in the beam!)

  27. LHC: delivering on the promise • US LHC Accelerator R&D Program = LARP: Fermilab + LBNL + BNL +SLAC • Commissioning: bring huge FNAL experience to LHC • Technology for upgrades: once again, luminosity will be key • FNAL will have presence at CERN but also develop remote “operations” center at FNAL. • Important step in the development of future “global” machines like the ILC

  28. CMS: Compact Muon Detector Coming together: aimed at completion by end of 2007 Magnet cold mass Muon detectors

  29. CMS: Compact Muon Detector • US collaboration doubled in the last three years >300 Collaborators 41 Institutions

  30. US CMS: and Fermilab’s role • Only major US lab associated with CMS: a central support role for the US community • This was the case during construction • Attention now to huge data and physics discovery challenge: the LHC Physics Center (LPC)

  31. Summary for LHC and CMS • Fermilab will be a vital partner to CERN in making the LHC and CMS a success • Our ambition is to contribute with: • Presence at CERN as necessary • Remote control/monitoring/data centers at Fermilab for both accelerator and detector(s) • Technical support and critical mass: such that being at FNAL will be nearly “as good” as being at CERN for all our University partners!

  32. Present Neutrino Program MINOS program is just starting: - 2 GeV neutrinos - 5.4 Kiloton far detector and 1.0 Kiloton near detector -Most precise measurements in the atmospheric region -nm disappearance Minos Far detector Minos near detector

  33. Present Neutrino Program MiniBooNE - 1 GeV neutrinos (Booster) - 800 ton oil cerenkov - Operating since 2003 - nm -> ne appearance - first results this fall: all hell will break loose if positive signal

  34. New Initiatives: neutrinos • Understanding the Neutrino matrix: • What is sin22q13 • What is the Mass Hierarchy • What is the CP violation parameter d • Fermilab is in the best position to make vital contributions to answer these questions

  35. New Initiatives: neutrinos • Most powerful beam in the world at 200 KW • Upgrades (by 2008) would give 440 KW • When we stop the Tevatron, we’ll have 600+ KW, the same as JPARC after 2010+ • Further improvements: aimed at 2 MW proton beam power

  36. Neutrino Program: accelerators • Develop Proton Driver • R&D helps develop base of SC RF technology • Extremely flexible operations = much simplified complex • Accelerator energy is 2% of ILC • Also develop alternatives • No Tevatron means we have recycler, accumulator and debuncher to play with • We have VERY EARLY creative ideas on how to deliver 1-2 MW at 120 GeV.

  37. ILC/TESLA b< 1 ILC LINAC ILC LINAC Neutrino Initiative – Proton Driver

  38. Neutrino Initiative: NOvA • In addition to Beam power: detector mass and detector sensitivity: NOvA is 30 ktons, totally active • NOvA is the only experiment sensitive to matter effects (hence the mass hierarchy). • We want to start a long term R&D program towards massive totally active liquid Argon detectors for extensions of NOvA. • Improvement is proportional to (Beam power) x (detector mass) x (detector sensitivity)

  39. Nova Reach: Q13

  40. Nova Reach: Mass Hierarchy + + + + + NOnA

  41. Nova Reach: CPWith Proton Driver

  42. Neutrino Program (delayed ILC) Minos run MiniBoone run NOvA run NOvA R&D and Construction detectors NOvA II run NOvA II R&D and construction ILC CDR Proton plan 2nd stage (If no proton driver) 1-2 MW at 120 GeV Proton plan first stage 0.2 MW moving to 0.4 MW accelerators Greater than 2 MW any energy Proton Driver Construction (if and only if ILC delayed) Proton Driver R&D DELAYED ILC? 2010 2015 2005

  43. Interlinked Roadmap • The immediate decisions are: NOvA, and support of ILC R&D and proton driver R&D • Options get looked two years down the line after ILC CDR: decision to go for early ILC decision precludes proton driver • LHC input will determine branch points at the end of the decade

  44. Interlinked Roadmap • Establishes the main trunk and branches for the laboratory. • It supports a vital role for the US community in the global program • Requires “strong focusing” now, which narrows the program…. • But it establishes the strong base on which breadth and “texture” can flourish as we move forward.

  45. Maintaining some breadth • Astrophysics and small experiments: • on going projects: SDSS; CDMS, Pierre Auger • New small projects: DES, Minerva • R&D for future major projects: direct detection of dark matter; evolution of the expansion of the universe JDEM/SNAP • R&D (at relatively small scale) • New detectors: e.g. calorimetry for ILC detector, Massive Liquid Argon TPCs • Novel accelerator ideas: muon cooling

  46. Early ILC Decision – No Proton DriverProposed Scenario

  47. Incremental Need

  48. Problems to be solved • Tremendous crunch on the accelerator expertise: Tevatron, LARP, PD, ILC. • Difficult transition D0/CDF to CMS/ATLAS: how to run the Tevatron program properly. • How to get NOvA moving quickly • How to preserve some breadth of the program in an era that forces “strong focusing”. • How to generate increasing support for the field in the era of nanosciences, hydrogen economy, the health sciences’ promise of “eternal life”, the needs of homeland security, global warming and $100B hurricanes. • Contract competition.
