1 The KM3NeT Preparatory Phase Project  Objectives  Current membership and funding  The Preparatory Phase project KM3NeT Meeting, Pylos, April 16, 2007 Uli Katz Univ. Erlangen

2 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 2 KM3NeT Objectives  Observe high-energy cosmic neutrinos - Opens new window to the most violent processes in the universe - Key objective of astroparticle physics - Convergence towards two major neutrino telescopes covering the full sky: Mediterranean Sea: Lake Baikal: KM3NeT ANTARES NEMO NESTOR Antarctica: AMANDA IceCube Baikal experiment ?  Provide infrastructure for long-term deep-sea measurements - Highly interesting for marine biologists, geologists and geophysicists, environmental scientists, oceanographers, …. - Strong links to the EMSO project.

3 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 3  3-year FP6 Design Study, Feb. 2006 – Jan. 2009, 9 M€ from EU, overall budget ~20 M€  Participants: 30 Particle/Astroparticle institutes + 7 Sea science/technology institutes  Main Deliverables - Conceptual Design Report (fall 2007) - Technical Design Report (early 2009) The KM3NeT Design Study } from 9 EU countries: CYP IT FR GE GR IRL NL ES UK

4 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 4  Technological/scientific: - ANTARES:  5 lines in operation, continuous data taking, first ’s  Completion (12 lines) expected by January 2008 - NEMO:  Prototype modules (junction box, 5-storey tower) deployed and connected, data taking ongoing - NESTOR:  DOE proposal with Berkeley (GRBs with 4-floor tower + autonomous lines)  Strategic/political: - ESFRI:  KM3NeT included in ESFRI roadmap (Sept. 2006)  ESFRI has initiated top-down political process (national prioritization, expressions of interest)  Strong support for KM3NeT in several countries Recent Progress

5 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 5  Pilot projects: - ANTARES (cap. investment only)20.1 M€ FR, GER, IT, NL, ES funding agencies14.5 M€ France: Regional sources 1.9 M€ FEDER/France 3.7 M€ - NEMO ( IT, cap. investment only) 17.0 M€ IT funding agencies10.9 M€ FEDER/Italy 6.1 M€ - NESTOR (GR, cap. investment only) 8.0 M€ Greek government 6.5 M€ FEDER/Peloponnese 1.5 M€ _______ 45.1 M€  KM3NeT (cap. + pers.) ca.11.0 M€ CY, FR, GER, GR, IRL, IT, NL, ES, UK funding agencies and other sources +9 M€ from EU Current National/Regional Funding

6 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 6  ERDF funds may be a major source of KM3NeT construction money - ERDF and FP7 run concurrently (2007-2013) - KM3NeT candidate sites are target-1/target-2 regions  Political coordination needed - Cross-coordination between ESFRI, EU DG Research (FP7), EU DG Regio (ERDF) and national authorities to promote research infrastructures - Avoid conflicting boundary conditions in both programs - Support for the concept of spending regional funds locally, but in the framework of pan-European projects  The situation must be clarified very soon! Structural Funds (slide taken from ESFRI talk)

7 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 7  Top-down call, restricted to ESFRI projects  Objective: Pave the way to construction of ESFRI RIs - Political and financial convergence - Legal / governance structure - Strategic preparation (centers of excellence, user needs, data dissemination etc.) - Technical work (must not be the core of the proposal)  Financial framework: - 135 M€ for 30-35 projects  ~4 M€ / project on average - A frame of 1-7 M€ is mentioned in the Guide for Applicants  Deadline: May 2, 2007, 17:00 Brussels time The Preparatory Phase Instrument

8 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 8  Application in preparation (time very tight due to overlap with 1st-year Design Study report)  Current list of Work Packages: WPAManagement of the PP project WPBPolitical convergence WPCLegal, governance, financial engineering and site issues WPDStrategic issues and international networking WPEMarine and environmental agencies and networking WPFIndustrial production of telescope components WPGInternational partnerships for auxiliary vessels WPHIndustrial production of deep sea components and partnership for deep sea infrastructures WPITelescope pre-production and production model WPJData handling and dissemination  Cornerstone data: - Requested amount from EU: ca. 6.5 M€ (~40% technical) - 3-year project, ca. 1/2008-12/201 The KM3NeT Preparatory Phase (PP) Proposal

9 KM3NeT meeting, Pylos, 16.04.07 U. Katz: The KM3NeT Prepratory Phase 9  WPA: Management of the PP project - Contractual, reporting, communication work, meetings, etc. - Special situation: Cross-coordination with Design Study necessary, use of common resources (web portal etc.)  WPB: Political convergence - Involve stakeholders, initiate a forum for political and financial negotiations, provide input to negotiations - Accompany and foster political negotiations on site(s), funding, legal and governance issues, etc. - Objective: (draft) Memorandum of Understanding, set of commitments  WPC: Legal, governance, financial engineering and site issues - Governance model, management structure and legal entity for construction and operation - Assessment of funding sources and related legal constructs - Site aspects related to these issues The KM3NeT PP Work Packages (1)
