1. The Way Forward ISS to IDS
ISS - Ended NuFact 2006
IDS – Starts NuFact 2007
Aims, Structure, Resources

2. ISS – Recapitulate Instigation
A Re-evaluation of the Neutrino Factory Situation
Following the earlier studies mainly in the US
And a new interest in the UK
Was set up very quickly
Meeting in London May 2005 – Launched NuFact 2005
Aim
A Baseline Scenario for a more detailed study
An R&D Programme
Originally considered for a Neutrino Factory Solution
But with the aim of comparison with other solutions

P Dornan

3. ISS Structure Resources Physics Accelerator Detectors
Why do precision Neutrino Physics
Compare the techniques for that phase
Accelerator
Origiinally Neutrino Factory but extended to Super beams following requests
Detectors
Sressed importance
Considered all possibilities – magnetic and non-magnetic
Resources
Mainly a paper exercise - therefore mainly travel
Institutions, Universities, Funding Agencies, BENE, NFMCC, UKISS

4. Continuation → the IDS Should we continue? At NuFact06
From this meeting I consider YES
At NuFact06
Aims for the Neutrino Factory Solution
An Interim Design Report 2010/11
A Reference Design Report 2012/13
Problem
How to Handle the different techniques
Superbeam, Betabeam, Neutrino Factory
30 Mar 2007
P Dornan

5. Proposed Structure at NuFact06
This has cause some
Unhappiness
So we should discuss!
30 Mar 2007
P Dornan

6. Obtaining Resources Difficult Need Resources for both travel and R&D
FP7 bid to cover aspects of NuFactory, Betabeam and Super beam
Other bids for Detector R&D
Some from NFMCC and UKNFC
But - Need more
30 Mar 2007

7. Preparing for IDS (NuFact) Launch at NuFact07
An ad-hoc Steering Group has Formed
K Long (Co-ordinator), A Blondel, A Bross, P Dornan, M Dracos, R Edgecock, H Kirk. Y Kuno, Y Mori, M Lindroos, N Mondal, Y Nagashima, V Palladino, P Soler, M Zisman,
Representatives from Betabeam and Superbeam Community
Not Exclusve! All welcome to take part
Next Meeting after this Discussion
Aim to have a firm plan for the NuFact-IDS by NuFact07
