1 Why and how develop new accelerators? In a Nordic perspective 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 1

2 After a pioneering period 1920-1960 accelerator development has been the domain, not of HEP researchers, but of accelerator specialists who primarily see the new accelerators themselves as the interesting objects, not also their use for physic research. Certainly, accelerator technology specialists are absolutely necessary for the development of new accelerators, but one can now also see a trend in High Energy Physics for experimental HEP researchers to again taking an interest in the challenging technical problems of the development of, not only new particle detectors, by also of new particle accelerators. This is probably so because it has become so evident that we will have to go to even higher energies and luminosities in order to advance the in the field of High Energy Physics research. I my talk I will give a brief and selective overview of the status and potentialities of ongoing accelerator development projects in Europe with special emphasis on the Nordic countries. 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 2

3 To increase the peak luminostity in LHC to 5*10 34 cm -1 s -1 the bunch spacing must be made smaller. To avoid parasitic bunch collisions the beams have to be made to cross at an angle. To optimize the bunch- bunch overlap at collision, and thereby luminosity, superconducting so called Crab Cavities need to be developed and used to turn the bunches into parallel directions when they cross each other at the Interaction Point. 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 3 HL-LHC 14 TeV pp 5*10 34 cm -2 s -1

10 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 10 The breakdowns in the CLIC accelerating cavities put the utlimate limit on the accelerating gradient that can be achieved in CLIC. With the use of the Two Beam Test Stand we are currently investigating the effects of breakdowns on the beam. The effects of HV breakdowns on the beam

16 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 16 Which is the potential of the FREIA project for Nordic High Energy Physics? 1.FREIA as a test laboratory for CLIC CLIC will contain of the order of 10 5 accelerating cavity structures. In order for that the operation of the CLIC at 100 MV/m be feasible it must be possible to operate the accelerating-cavity structures with a spark rate at 100 MV/m gradient that is less than one spark in 10 7 pulses (as a spark will imply that the beam is lost this is equivalent to requiring a 99% efficiency). In order to achieve such a low spark rate each cavity has to be conditioned by running it at high gradient near break-down for several weeks. To condition and test large series of CLIC accelerating-cavity structure prototypes over the next few years will require the running of 6-8 conditioning 12 GHz klystron-driven test-benches in parallel. CERN is planning to build 4 such test-benches and is relying on collaborating groups to provide the others.

17 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 17 The Nordic CLIC Group has extensive experience of running the Two Beam Test Stand at CERN, which has several features in common with the type of 12 GHz klystron-driven test-stand that is required. The FREIA Experimental Hall will have the infrastructure and personnel required to set up and operate such a test stand. We are already planning for a bunker in the FREIA Hall for this CLIC test-stand. CERN will provide part of the equipment (the klystron). We are currently preparing a fund request to RFI for the remaining items.

18 2. FREIA as a test laboratory for the LHC intensity upgrade In order to reach 5*10 34 cm -1 s -1 peak luminostity in LHC it is planned to develop superconducting so called Crab Cavities. The FREIA Experimental Hall will have the cryogenic infrastructure and personnel qualified to contribute to a test program for the LHC Crab Cavities. 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 18

19 3. FREIA as a node in the European Accelerator Development Network TIARA TIARA (Test Infrastructure and Accelerator Research Area ) is an EU Preparatory Phase Project that has as objective to propose a European network that will integrate national and international accelerator R&D infrastructures into a single distributed European R&D facility. Member institutes: CEA, CERN, DESY, GSI, INFN. PSI, RAL...,UU Coordinator: Roy Aleksan, CEA Uppsala University is representing Scandinavian partners at Helsinki HIP, Stockholm U., Oslo U., Lund U. and Aarhus U. Preparatory phase: propose governance, inventory of needs, existing infrastructures, collaboration with industry and education The FREIA Laboratory will have the infrastructure and personnel required to constitute an effective node in the future TIARA accelerator development laboratory network. 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 19

20 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 20 2. Which is the potential of the ESS project from the view of High Energy Physics? Order of magnitude cost 0.7 GEuro The ESS will be a copious source of spallation neutrons but also of neutrinos Running ESS with a thinner target that lets the charged pions out in the forward direction will produce a collimated neutrino beam of ca 200 MeV/c.

21 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 21 Additions to the present ESS proton linac required for the generation of such a beam; 1.A special (thinner) neutrino target with a neutrino horn (studied in detail in EUROν) 2. A 2.5 GeV accumulator ring to compress the ca 3ms long ESS pulse to a few microseconds pulse (to reduce the cosmic ray background in the underground ν detector) 3. Acceleration of H - pulses in the ca 70 ms long empty buckets between the ESS proton 3 ms pulses (70 ms spacing is needed for the TOF measurement of the spallation neutrons) requiering more rf power generation capacity 4. A very large Kton neutrino detector + a smaller near detector.

22 There are two EU FP7 projects studying future options for neutrino physics in Europe; EUROν (http://www.euronu.org/) 2008-2012 and LAGUNA (Large Apparatus for Grand Unification and Neutrino Astrophysics, http://laguna.ethz.ch:8080/Plone) 2008-2010 The LAGUNA EU neutrino study is proposing long and short base line neutrino detectors i Europe based on proton beams from the CERN SPS and the CERN Super Proton Linac (SPL), respectively. However, CERN’s plan to construct the 4 MW, 4.5 MeV SPL has been postponed, whereas the ESS 5 MW, 2.5 MeV proton linac will be built 2015-2019 as a unique facility in the worldhttp://www.euronu.org/ http://laguna.ethz.ch:8080/Plone 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 22

(arXiv: hep-ex/0607026) Order of magnitude cost : 0.7 GEuro

25 An alternative to the EUROν option of One shorter (~150 km) base line neutrino detector in Fréjus (~0.7 MEuro) with the CERN SPL as accelerator (~ 0.7 Meuro) and one long (~2000km) base line neutrino detector in northen Finland (~ 0.7 Meuro) with CERN SPS as accelerator could be A single large neutrino detector (~0.7 Meuro) being fed with two different neutrino beams, one from the EES linac (~150 km) and one from the CERN SPS (~2000 km) 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 25

26 Considering the magnitude the cost of excavating three cylindrical caverns, each 75 m high and 75 m in diameter, at 1500 m depth (of order 100 Meuro) the construction cost of the transport shaft needed to bring up the excavation debris is not dominant (order 10 Meuro), the gain to place the detector in an excisting mine is marginal. The position of the detector may therefore be chosen considering primarily the optimal distance to the neutrino source and the geological structure of the underground. So, where would be the optimal position of the single large neutrino detector? 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 26

33 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 33 Concluding remarks The future of High Energy Phyiscs relies to significant extent the innovative development of future high energy, high intensity accelerators like LH-LHC, CLIC, ESS linac… There is a lively accelerator development activity in Europe to which Nordic physicist contribute actively and which offers truely challenging problems for young High Energy physicists The ESS project was propose by the Swedish Government without much consultation with the Nordic scientific community. Even so, the superconducting linear proton accelerator of the ESS project will, in view of its high power of 5 MW, be a world unique facility in the Nordic countries with high potential also for High Energy Physics.

34 The large investment in accelerator development infrastucture required in order to assure the success of the ESS project opens the possibility for the Nordic countries to contribute to the development of several cutting-edge accelerator development projects also for High Energy Physics like CLIC and SLHC which would not have been possible without the ESS project. 2012-01-06Spaatind 2012 Tord Ekelöf - Uppsala University 34 Moreover, the high power ESS proton linac in combination with a large neutrino detector offers the possibility to make a world leading study one of the oustanding problems in modern physics, that of neutrino CP violation and the matter-antimatter symmetry in the Universe.
