  1. beam line & infrastructure:Assumptions • …Minimise Cost in next FY (03/04) • …Minimise Impact on ISIS ‘04 shutdown • …Funding likely to be limited to less than ~ £500k in ‘03/4

  2. minimum deliverables: material spend in 03/04 • Set up ~£10k (e.g. Software licences) • Clear MICE Hall ~£10k • Break into Synchrotron Room “Cut & Block” ~ £50k (steel) • New target mechanism development ~£25k (effort in Sheffield University) Total: ~£95k Materials

  3. Staff in 03/04: ~ 3.5 (o/h = 2) • Continue design work • Prepare for “05” Shutdown & general installation planning • Resolve costs of a new solenoid (large error)to be in a position to act in ’04 • activity of PSI solenoid is known • decide on path: PSI / new solenoid • quad channel is no longer justified – needed to meet MS 1 – doesn’t meet full needs of MICE

  4. Spend 03/04 to 06/07 (build only) Added Solenoid (£1.7m ~1 SY) Saved by removing quad channel (~50k) Staff ~ 2 extra ~ some loss and gains (extra year) This alleviates majority of problems with the next ISIS shutdown ….at a cost for MICE….

  5. University Tasks 03/04 Focus coils: 15k 96k(ED) 70k(D&ME) Detector: 127k 100k(PD) 40k (ME) Target: - 50k (PD) 40k (E/ME) Travel: 80k Total: £222k £300k Discuss with groups - reduction & consequences Proactive in discussing wider programme within iMICE Conclusion: Robust analysis of iMICE programme required

  6. Conclusions: (in this scenario) • MS3 (Absorber) likely to match the end of the ’05 shutdown & could be met with beam • …need to be programmed into ’05 shutdown • Cryogenics is estimated to be available • but MS 1 & 2 will push MS 3 back in time • Milestone 4 is (probably) safe • Milestone 5 is (more) certain

  7. However: • To match the funding profile: … slow down – add one year at least • To match to the work: … need to look carefully at the available staff & skill requirements, especially Cryogenics Hydrogen RF

  8. spend is now peaked in 04/5 & 05/6 • big cost items….. • shielding & beam line • plant room • cryogenic system • muon solenoid • MICE depends on the muon beam and the cryogenic services • but less strongly on the solenoid…..

  9. Extend & Level Programme… • Delay new solenoid by one year / PSI solenoid • Slow down cryogenics • Slide MICE milestones….but already like this! • Reinstate quad channel for “2005/6” shutdown • New Solenoid now in a “2007” shutdown • material spend profile now more like ~ 2002/3 prices • Delays full MICE till start of 2008 ~ 1 year

  10. Summary: • Can reduce cost & impact on ISIS in FY 03/04 • MICE UK discussion just started (KL) • impact on (international) leadership & intellectual contribution • - PD/RE/KL will make a robust analysis of iMICE schedules • MS 1 & 2 will push MS 3 back in time ? ½ year • To level costs of MICE (PSI solenoid excluded) will slide full experiment into 2008 ? 1 year

  11. Other Issues: • Statements of Policy on • Solenoid • Quad Channel • RF system (we have not included much – assumed MICE initially) • Staffing – skill issue • Organisation – a view for MICE
