27. 27 Additional impounded results Remarkable first result from COUPP. Submitted to Science Exciting results on the origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays from Pierre Auger. Submitted to Science

28. 28 Major issue: planning for the future What is the national program: especially the accelerator based domestic program? Planning has to be centered on recovering the energy frontier: ILC But there are unresolved issues Sufficient energy at 0.5 TeV? Domestic and international arrangements? When?

29. 29 Problems with competitive situation In a world with a delayed ILC or no ILC – grave risk that we are left ONLY with accelerator R&D without world leading facilities either at the energy frontier or the intensity frontier Once we are in that bucket: much harder to get out to a position to build the next global facility: the accelerator based program will be smaller

30. 30 Problem: selection vs. roadmap We have selected the projects to start: DES, NOvA, Daya Bay – only NOvA is a “large project”. It is the start of a roadmap Problem: “…I want a dialog with the HEP community…” leads to “we’ll talk to you in three years….” Example: can say “wait until we know sin 2  13 ” or build a roadmap that depends on that number

31. 31 Fermilab Steering Group Steering Group NOT to provide a plan A vs. plan B, rather an integrated roadmap with discovery opportunities in the next two decades that: supports the international R&D and engineering design for as early a start of the ILC as possible and supports the development of Fermilab as a potential host site for the ILC; develops options for an accelerator-based high energy physics program in the event the start of the ILC construction is slower than the technically-limited schedule; and

32. 32 Fermilab Steering Group includes the steps necessary to explore higher energy colliders that might follow the ILC or be needed should the results from LHC point toward a higher energy than that planned for the ILC Broad community engagement under the leadership of deputy director Young Kee Kim

33. 33 What we are asking P5 Take into consideration it takes a minimum of four years to break ground on any new project Need recommendations on the roadmap that take account of the full complexity of the world in which we live If the roadmap we propose is to be effective, it needs R&D support for project preparation
