Presentation Transcript

  1. The Project-X Research Program • Neutrino long-baseline and short-baseline experiments • A high-power proton source with proton energies between 8 and 120 GeV would produce intense neutrino beams directed toward near detectors on the Fermilab site and massive detectors at distant underground laboratories. • Kaon, muon, nuclei & neutron precision experiments • These could include world leading experiments searching for muon-to-electron conversion and other rare muon processes, nuclear and neutron electron dipole moments (edms) & fundamental physics, and world-leading precision measurements of ultra-rare kaon decays. • Platform for evolution to a Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider • Neutrino Factory and Muon-Collider concepts depend critically on developing high intensity proton source technologies. • Nuclear Energy Applications • Accelerator, spallation, target and transmutation technology demonstration which could investigate and develop accelerator technologies important to the design of future nuclear waste transmutation systems and future thorium fuel-cycle power systems.

  21. Project X and the classic (g-2) method… Discussion: Three Phases for FNAL implementation • Phase 1: m+ measurement to 0.1 ppm statistical • Requires Nova type upgrades, beam manipulations and ~4x1020 p • Can do in pre Project X era • Phase 2: m- measurement to 0.1 ppm (or lower) • Requires many more protons due to xsection for p- • Would benefit from Project X • Phase 3: All “integrating” with much higher proton beam and restricted storage ring acceptance to lower systematics • Requires Project X Hertzog, 2008 PX workshop Project-X collaboration meeting - Review of high intensity muon sources - R.
