DOE HEP Re-organization ARD All-Hands April 2008 3

Acc Science versus Acc Development * OHEP is using B&R codes to control funding at an increasing level of detail * Definitions of Accelerator Science and Accelerator Development are not entirely clear but … – Acc Science: long-term R&D aimed at promising concepts • e. g. PWFA and Laser acceleration or High Grad Collaboration – Acc Development: mid-term R&D aimed at a deliverable on the 5 -year time-scale • e. g. Klystron-based X-band rf power system or a CLIC acc structure * All programs need to be justified in terms of expected benefit for DOE HEP – As funding gets tighter, the vision tends to constrict onto topics with clear potential ARD All-Hands April 2008 4
