5. Vibrant Program Exciting Recent Results W mass (0.05%), top mass (1%) Single top production Resolution of LSND mystery B s oscillations Accurate determination of neutrino oscillation/mass parameters … on track for 6 to 8 fb -1, Higgs in sight

6. Big Opportunities Complete the standard model Identify the dark matter particle Reconcile GR and quantum mechanics Identify the dynamite behind the big bang Understand cosmic acceleration Explain matter/antimatter asymmetry Unify the forces and particles Continue U.S. Leadership in Elementary-Particle Physics

7. Challenges Make big discoveries and realize the LHC investment Embrace the expanded agenda of elementary-particle physics Succeed in the very competitive funding environment for discovery science Rally around Fermilab as the U.S. lab for HEP Maintain a strong national program within a global framework Create a global ILC Lab at Fermilab

8. FRA Science Strategy FRA Science Strategy as developed by the Director (http://www.fra-hq.org/about.html) Energy FrontierEnergy Frontier –Tevatron program –LHC commissioning –ILC R&D, hosting preparations, advanced accelerator R&D NeutrinosNeutrinos –MiniBooNE, MINOS, SciBooNE, Minerva –NOvA Particle AstrophysicsParticle Astrophysics –Astrotheory, SDSSII, Auger, CDMSII consistent with the vision of EPP2010 and designed to maintain a robust national program and U.S. leadership

9. FRA in Support of Fermilab and U.S. Elementary-particle Physics Help Fermilab strengthen its relationship with the U.S. HEP community in this new era LHC Physics Center to enhance U.S. participation Strategic investment of management fee in support of Fermilab programs Sabbatical/visitor programs with URA Universities Joint appointments with local Universities –Director, Center for Particle Astrophysics (with UChicago) State and Local support for Fermilab –State of Illinois to build Illinois Accelerator Center at Fermilab Marshal Local, State, Federal and Global support for ILC Strengthen collaboration between Fermilab and Argonne –ILC R&D, Accelerator R&D, LHC, Computing, Astrophysics

10. FRA Understands its Responsibilities to the Department of Energy & the EPP Community and is Committed to the future of Elementary-Particle Physics and Fermilab Questions, comments: mturner@uchicago.edu
