William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov FY13 Q4 Task Summary – Highlights
PIP FY13 Milestone Summary William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov The current RLS is out of date and is being updated. Effort to adjust RLS when changes to budget and labor occur is challenging. Not Completed Completed FY13 Q1 FY13 Q2 FY13 Q3 FY13 Q4
WBS 1.1 LINAC FY13 Q4 Summary Tasks at a Glance 5 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov Linac WBS TaskFY13 Q4 Progress Summary WBS High Level RF MBK design has been abandoned and substituted by a SBK specification. New bid process complete. Finalizing FP contract negotiation (warranty, T’s & C’s, etc…) WBS Linac Modulator EE support completed 3 cell testing system. Implemented modifications to the design and initiated building 9 cell modulator WBS Procurement Waiting tube delivery procured in FY13 WBS Simulations and Studies Small progress on this task during this quarter WBS Linac Notch Creation Purchased of waveform generator and laser technology was chosen (1064nm Nd:YAG amplifier) WBS Power Distribution Awaiting next long shutdown for L1 transformer installation WBS Vacuum System Some equipment procured with Supplemental funds have been already delivered. Ongoing installation plans

Part of funds will be used to remedy the recent PS budgets which impacted PIP goals (7835 tubes). Part of funds will be used to put back track PIP items impacted from previous reductions (e.g. laser notcher). Part of funds will be used to move tasks forward (Refurb) Some small items already delivered – all should be in FY15 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov

William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov Operations with refurbishment means the voltage and loses are always a concern – medium intensities. Batch intensity will track the voltage sum – mostly due to transition loses. Same scales for 2011 operations and present operations. Average voltage is about 817 KV compared to 917 two years ago. This is likely to continue with occasional unplanned downtime to fix RF stations.
PIP FY13 Q4 Summary & Concerns WBS 1.1 Linac Linac WBS efforts are in good shape Klystron effort continues – Business Services/CPI/PIP Switching from MBK to SBK Modulator efforts continue with both SLAC and AD/EE support Simulation and Studies-> continue development code for DTL lattice, WBS 1.2 Booster Cavity Refurbishment – Labor & Time constraints Contract Employees Dosage (ALARA) – will need to rotate personnel Need to deal with operations vs. repair (MI startup) Booster shielding – progressing Booster has not found a ferrite that meets our High μ need A order has been placed for 10 high u ferrites – getting close to a usable ferrite FY14? Booster High Intensity/rep rate: Up to 7 Hz – MiniBooNE, Recycler and NoVA Booster Rep rate limit – RF has had more downtime (rep rate or operating time?) Supplemental Funding – Big Boost and will help PIP/FY14 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG, Nov
