The Accelerator Directorate The Organization, Priorities and Accelerator R&D May 5, 2011 Norbert Holtkamp
Topics My first 100 days Organizational adjustments Priorities Where do we go with Accelerator R&D Long range planning Summary 2Accelerator R&D: Strategy
My First 100 Days…Observations The observations were heavily influenced by the review of AED. –Business systems + Document management systems are up to standards –“Shadow organizations” and “Shadow systems” exist Systems Engineering is not consistent across AD/Lab Significant frustration regarding Accelerator R&D. Lack of trust towards upper management. In spite of all that: Operation of user facilities and construction of new ones is doing very well. 3 Accelerator R&D: Strategy
A fantastic Toy: LCLS Achievements “… and then there was light”. Coherent light. Immediately. Very short transition from commissioning to user operation Low charge (20pC) bunches for short bunch length (<10fs) Extended energy range,.5keV – 10keV Second Harmonic After Burner (SHAB) for x-rays to approx. 20 keV Operation at 120 Hz (and 120 Hz controls feedback) was seamless Operating now at approx hrs. per year at greater than 95% accelerator availability Accelerator R&D: Strategy 4

Approximately 275 FTE are funded directly or indirectly in support of the LCLS. Approximately 170 FTE are “hard” matrixed to the LCLS. 6Accelerator R&D: Strategy
Organizational Adjustments Is there anything wrong with the existing organization? Observations: –28% of all AD employees are coded supervisors –Present org charts mix between administrative and functional supervision –Up to seven levels of management –PAUSE event pointed out deficiencies in communication and lack of clarity in supervision –Dissatisfied customers –In some areas the mission and the organization are not aligned. –Some of the current structure has been in place for more than a decade and can be rigid, cumbersome and inflexible –Rates are too high. Substantial UDT across the organization 7Accelerator R&D: Strategy
What Do We Have? - What Do We Want? Accelerator R&D: Strategy8
The Present Organization Accelerator R&D: Strategy9
The Biggest Change: Engineering Organization Owns more than 2/3 of AF (>400 people) Only 2 options: 1.AED is a directorate 2.AED splits up into 3 ~90~130~180 Accelerator R&D: Strategy 10

Sector 0 FEL R&D Test Facility A staged approach to a five to 15 to 30 Million$ Test Facility that serves SLAC and others (LBNL, ANL) 23Accelerator R&D: Strategy
Redirecting where: Status on the Photon Side The R&D plan is consistent with SLACs mission statement The plan includes other laboratories and serves not only SLAC but other national programs and the worldwide community All elements of the plan will happen depending on time and funding because they are all mission critical … it’s a good and complete plan, although details are missing! Accelerator R&D: Strategy24
Redirecting where: What about the HEP part? B.Brinkman (Oct 2009) There are a number of promising emerging accelerator technologies now under investigation with HEP support: –High-Gradient RF Structures –Muon Accelerators &Colliders –Photonic Band-Gap Structures –Superconducting Radio Frequency –Wake Fields in Plasmas or Dielectrics Accelerator R&D: Strategy25
Other SLAC Accelerator Research Program Strong programs in Advanced Accelerator concepts, High Power RF (HPRF) and Beam physics and Diagnostics –Utilize SLAC core competencies in HPRF and accelerator design –Leverage SLAC test facilities, infrastructure and computation effort SLAC HEP Accelerator R&D program at crossroads –World-leading accelerator research program with unique but expensive infrastructure and test facilities –Most near-term application industrial or scientific radiation sources –Accelerators have potential to impact community and economy Accelerator R&D: Strategy 26
The Reality: FY2011 funding vs budget situation Where will SLAC be in 3-5 years? Following trend: ~ $ 6-7 M Following trend ~ $ 3 M 0 unless there is a FACET II Following trend ~ $ 3.5 M Depends: 0- < $ 2 M _______________________________ That’s ~ $ 15 M versus ~ $ 31M Accelerator R&D: Strategy27
Programmatic Elements and Direction in the Future Advanced Accelerator R&D: High Gradient, LASERs/PLASMA FEL PhysicsInstrumentation High rep rate, ultrafast Accelerator Computations Pulsed Power Modulators BEAM DynamicsHigh Power RF Fully aligned with SLAC mission DOE fully funds 100% Unique DOE will partially fund Very useful for SLAC Largely funded through grants NC Linac Design & Construction 28Accelerator R&D: Strategy
AD-Status Overview and Outlook R&D infrastructure: –HEP funded AD infrastructure is about $ 30M / y Probably shrink to $ 10M / y by 2015 –BES funded AD infrastructure is << $ 10M / y could grow to $ 20M / y In order to maintain and grow this infrastructure AD would need a ~$30M - $40M program by Sources: DARPA, BES, NP, HEP, FS, DOD, Industry, NIH AD is approx $ 150M/y now and will be in 2015/2016 because LCLS II construction money. Without WFO AD can not grow/maintain. Management decision: not more than 20% of the AD base! 29Accelerator R&D: Strategy
Other Sources of Funding- is it a Solution? WFO funding can support infrastructure and technology that can not be full covered by funding through base/core programs. SLAC has technology, infrastructure and intellectual capabilities that can benefit industries, other agencies and the nation. Risks: –Fluctuations in funding can not be covered by Laboratory Base budget –Effort becomes very scattered without clear direction and alignment with lab core mission –AD can’t raise the ~$ 35M /y and AD infrastructure will fade away –WFO becomes substantial part of base budget and threatens lab core missions through shift in priority Accelerator R&D: Strategy30

More recent initiatives – We will do! The Muons: Engage in MAP-Berkeley and SLAC will make a proposal together. Approx 6 FTEs each. Plan for FACET II Maintain the Linear Collider (at SLAC or elsewhere) Engage with HP RF industry Start WFO others program (and infrastructure) Be the center for normal conducting RF accelerators and especially linacs, HP RF sources and pulsed power Accelerator R&D: Strategy33
Budget Realities SLAC operates the only hard x-ray laser for another couple of years. There a core competencies that SLAC wants to maintain and that the DOE wants to maintain within the complex There are new projects and opportunities for the Accelerator directorate: –LCLS II, ITF, FEL R&D programs, NGLS participation… –Develop, implement and execute a healthy Work For Others program –Look for the future of HEP: SUPER B, LHC, Linear Collider, Muon Collider… but better be patient! 34 Accelerator R&D: Strategy
Summary The largest part of the Accelerator Directorate is very straightforward although challenging to maintain and to improve The Accelerator Research and Development is facing a major shift and we need to calibrate ourselves whether: –The path makes sense –The path is realistic –The path allows address to the full breath of opportunities There will be a series of talks addressing the elements of the plan Accelerator R&D: Strategy35
Flat Organizations … Tuned for matrix organizations Reduces the number of layers “above” –We will go from ~>20% supervisors to ~ 6% Empowers employees reduces layers through which to filter messages thus improves communication Reduces costs to the organization (= efficiencies) Encourages accountability Enhances creativity and productivity through empowerment Accelerator R&D: Strategy36
Administrative Supervisor vs. Functional Lead Functional Lead Role Under the direction of the supervisor: Not a Position, but a Role –Plan and assign work –Provide coaching and guidance on performance of job duties – may be Subject Matter Expert –Communicates and monitors compliance with policy, procedure and protocol –Provides performance feedback to supervisor –Executes WPC Does not replace BU leads Administrative Supervisor Makes all personnel actions –Hires –Evaluates –Promotes –Transfers –Terminates Compensation decisions Administers corrective action Writes and delivers performance evaluation Responsible for WPC Accelerator R&D: Strategy37
“You Can’t Manage What You Don’t Measure” Possible Metrics for AD Customer Satisfaction Cost (overhead, UDT) Turn-around time (determine baseline) Quality of output (reliability and availability of systems post installation and operation) Long term safety performance System function and performance vs customer requirements Accelerator R&D: Strategy38
Living in the Matrix: An example Accelerator R&D: Strategy39 Functional Authority Administrative Authority
Feedback From the PAUSE Event Improve SLAC-wide communication methods to improve overall effective communications while reducing sense of "information overload" General sentiment is that we are not doing a good enough job in transmitting information at all levels. Examples of communication problems include: –Directors messages on safety, personnel, funding –Announcements of changes in key positions/personnel should be timely –High level decisions made by the ALDs –Communication between central service groups should be improved to provide one- stop shopping Reliance on top-down information flow is not working. We need to find other ways to disseminate information. Lack of clarity with supervisors and middle managers level of accountability and authority. Accelerator R&D: Strategy 40

HEP Accelerator R&D Priorities at SLAC Advanced accelerator R&D with potential for major impact –Plasma Wakefield program although $6M FACET operations support will limit the user program severely –Dielectric laser acceleration and NLCTA programs –SLAC needs strong leadership and vision!!! Beam dynamics core capability and computing mostly supported externally already High gradient and X-band programs –Unique capability world-wide but applications unclear Must define approach to normal-conducting linacs –Ongoing High Power RF (HPRF) program Possibly redirect High Gradient program toward power sources –Continued collaborations with LLNL, LANL and CERN Accelerator R&D: Strategy45
