Nigel S. Lockyer May 19, 2016 Fermilab View LBNF/DUNE
LBNF/DUNE Project Status 5/19/16Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting2 DOE: Project continues to enjoy strong OHEP, Office of Science, DOE Site Office (Pepin Carolan, FPD, and local team) and Secretarial support. Congress: House and Senate both propose to increase LBNF funding in FY2017 above the President’s budget request of $45M: House appropriations committee: +$5M Full Senate: +$10M both House and Senate versions of FY2017 appropriations bill authorize start of construction at Sanford Lab in FY2017. International Partners: CERN partnership strong; vital to SBN, protoDUNE, and LBNF CERN supportive of neutrino platform…thank you UK, Italy, India, Brazil, Switzerland engagement proceeding well
LBNF Activities Planned What’s coming up for rest of 2016? Achieve CD-3a milestone – we will request this in September timeframe so that we’re aligned with DOE’s FY18 budget formulation process Continue to advance international involvement and contributions to LBNF/DUNE with goal to sign additional international partner agreement/contribution by end of year. DOE Office of Science has sent a letter to UK about LBNF/DUNE Build on Fermilab Short-Baseline Neutrino program and ProtoDUNEs to further develop membrane cryostats, cryo systems, and LAr TPC technology Award Construction Manager/General Contractor contract for Far Site Conventional Facilities work by end of 2016….proceeding Be poised to start construction activities in 2017! 5/19/16Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting3
Big Picture LBNF/DUNE Project Goals – 2017 through Start pre-excavation construction work 2018 Complete Sanford Laboratory “reliability projects” Progress protoDUNEs to enable testing in CERN beam Start major cavern excavation work 2021 Complete first cryostat and cryo systems construction to enable DUNE detector installation to begin 2024 Commission first DUNE detector – start science! 2026 World’s most powerful neutrino beam turns on! 5/19/16Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting4

PIP-II Injector: Commissioning of RFQ with Beam PIP-II RFQ built in collaboration with LBNL has been installed and successfully commissioned with beam –Beam studies are in progress to increase intensity and repetition rate. Indian (BARC) quadrupoles installed and working with beam RFQ exit Current transformer Quad doublet BARC Faraday Cup Time (Sec) Beam Current (mA) RFQ At Faraday Cup 6 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting
= 0.90, 650 MHz Cavity for PIP-II Fermilab has processed 1 st = 0.90, 650 MHz Cavity fabricated by AES. –The preliminary result exceeds PIP-II design goals. Fermilab has finalized the design of an improved = 0.92 cavity design. –Fabrication of dressed HB650 cavity has started under the Joint R&D collaboration with India, one of 13 major deliverables. Optical Inspection of 5-cell B= MHz cavity 7 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting
Milestones: Lab 2 Facility – Inaugurated! 8 Before Ribbon cutting 15 Jan 2016 !! More work ahead: ODH/EN’s, HPR systems, US systems, cleanroom gear.. PIP-II facility for construction of 325/650 MHz cryomodules & preparation of cavities Class 10 clean-room, String Assembly, High Pressure Rinsing Water production plant LN 2 outside dewar 12.5 T Cryomodule Assembly Area Tech Rooms, Office Spaces Conference Room 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting
Milestone: RF Protection and Interlock System BARC in collaboration with Fermilab has developed a new RF Protection and Interlock System for the PIP-II SRF Linac. –One Cavity system was tested fully at BARC. –It is being shipped to Fermilab for integration in HTS-I 9 RFPI system for one cavity 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting
Intertwined futures with CERN & International Bi-weekly call with CERN DG Established weekly LARP, research, operations, phase I upgrades, HL-LHC upgrades (DOE & NSF PMs), CMS management, OHEP Once per month add ATLAS leadership, LBNF/DUNE & NSF Purpose: maintain good communication because community nervous that LHC funding will pay for LBNF/DUNE Strategy: LBNF/DUNE is new funding and grows top line number LHC is top priority and thus in the budget (not forgotten) 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting10
Model quad for LHC high luminosity upgrade 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting11 The first full aperture model IR quad for the LHC high luminosity upgrade trained rapidly, exceeded the ultimate quench performance required and remembered its training after a thermal cycle. The coils came from Fermilab and CERN, the magnet was assembled at LBNL and the testing was conducted at Fermilab.
LBNC…thank you very much for your wisdom and time Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collaboration Meeting Recommended by the Fermilab PAC as a new committee focused on DUNE/LBNF Modeled after the LHCC at CERN To review the scientific, technical and managerial decisions/preparations of the experiment Meets as needed, reports to the Fermilab director 12 o Chair: David MacFarlane (SLAC) o Ursula Bassler (IN2P3) o Francesca Di Lodovico (Queen Mary) o Patrick Huber (Virginia Tech) o Mike Lindgren (FNAL) o Naba Mondal (TIFR) o Tsuyoshi Nakaya (Kyoto) o Dave Nygren (UT Arlington) o Stephen Pordes (FNAL) o Kem Robinson (LBNL) o Nigel Smith (SNOLAB) o Dave Wark (Oxford) o Sampa Bhadra (York) o Marco Pallavicini (INFN)
LBNC Chaired by David MacFarlane (SLAC)…thank you Saturday calls (2 hours scheduled) led by David crucial to leadership communication…LBNF/DUNE/DOE/Fermilab Moving into a new era for committee Plan to form teams to focus on different detector challenges 1-day in depth look at protoDUNES June 12 th Sunday –Augment a couple of committee members with experts –Meets June 13,14 Will revitalize and possibly expand membership by fall Moving into an era where committee writes reports and collaboration and DOE will have as evidence of progress 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting13
Summary Washington: DOE & Congress like the science vision developed by DUNE LBNF: full steam ahead…strong leadership team, CD3a next DUNE: now the world’s attention on collaboration performance –Must work seamlessly together –Demonstrate you are working well with leadership –Protodunes must be ready for beam data < LS CKJ must go to next level with Gina/Steve to identify US university groups committed to a presence at CERN for PD –DOE will support somehow…ongoing discussion with Gina R. Continue to work hard on communications…with host,LBNF, and to each other… always showing progress Please be sensitive to entire community goals 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting14
DUNE Leadership team Thank you to Mark Thomson and Andre Rubbia…..working closely with Fermilab and CERN and global community on many fronts to make DUNE (and LBNF) a success –Strong leadership recognized by DOE Thank you to Eric James for working with collaboration and technical teams to make protodunes a reality Thank you Chang Kee Jung for assembling CRB, helping form path forward with RRB 5/19/16 Nigel Lockyer | DUNE Collab meeting15
