Department of Energy Status of U. S. HEP § HEP is at a productive

Department of Energy Status of U. S. HEP § HEP is at a productive and exciting period today Ø Significant discoveries anticipated over the next decade • at the energy frontier • at the intensity frontier • at the particle astrophysics frontier § But current circumstances for the U. S. program are challenging Ø Competition for federal funding is fierce • HEP is not a priority of the Administration or Congress • HEP funding has eroded over the last decade • “Why does the U. S. have to be a leader in HEP (particle physics)? ” • “What is particle physics”? Office of Science Ø Reductions in FY 2008 funding resulted in loss of • HEP’s scientific productivity and workforce • Momentum on planned activities (NOv. A, SRF infrastructure, ILC R&D) • U. S. credibility as an interagency/international collaborator (Ba. Bar, ILC) Ø A realistic strategic plan for a world-class program that deals with • the increase in cost and the delay in possible start of an ILC • energy frontier moving to Europe in FY 2009 & closure of Tevatron • Fermilab’s role in the future has been (is being) developed that needs to accepted and implemented! 2

Need for a Realistic Strategic Plan Guidance Sought from the Community Department of Energy

Need for a Realistic Strategic Plan Guidance Sought from the Community Department of Energy Office of Science DOE/NSF Charge to HEPAP (P 5) (November 2007/revised January 2008) Identify and evaluate the scientific opportunities and options that can be pursued at different funding levels for mounting a world-class, vigorous and productive national particle physics science program. Understand evaluate the role Fermilab will play in the national and worldwide context of particle physics over the next two decades. Recommendations on the priorities for an optimized high energy physics program over the next ten years (FY 2009 -2018), under the following four funding profile scenarios: • Constant effort at the FY 2008 (Omnibus) funding level • Constant effort at the FY 2007 funding level • Doubling of funding starting in FY 2007 • Additional funding above the previous level, in priority order, associated with specific activities needed to mount a leadership program that addresses the scientific opportunities identified in the National Academy (“EPP 2010”) report. Report was submitted in June 2008 3

HEPAP (P 5) Report Major Findings Department of Energy Office of Science • Progress

HEPAP (P 5) Report Major Findings Department of Energy Office of Science • Progress in achieving the goals of particle physics requires advancements at the: • Energy Frontier • Intensity (or precision) Frontier • Cosmic (or particle astrophysics) Frontier (each provides a unique window for insight about the fundamental forces/particles of nature) • LHC offers an outstanding opportunity for discoveries at the Energy Frontier • Resources will be needed to support the extraction of the science by U. S. scientists • Resources will be needed for planned accelerator and detector upgrades • An opportunity exists for the U. S. to become a world leader at the Intensity Frontier • Central is an intense neutrino beam and large underground long-based line detector • Building on infrastructure at Fermilab and partnering with NSF • Develops infrastructure that positions the U. S. to regain Energy Frontier (Muon Collider) • Promising opportunities for advancing particle physics identified at Cosmic Frontier • Requires partnering with NASA, NSF, etc. • HEP at its core is an accelerator based experimental science • Accelerator R&D develops technologies needed by the field and that benefit the nation 4

HEPAP (P 5) Report My Comments Department of Energy Office of Science • P

HEPAP (P 5) Report My Comments Department of Energy Office of Science • P 5 seriously addressed the charge given by DOE/NSF: • to examine the scientific opportunities and options • for mounting a world class particle physics program • at different funding levels • Grappled with the issue of how to mount a world-class program that addresses the highest priority scientific opportunities identified with the funding available • Result is a realistic vision whose priorities are consistent with the major findings - that is robust and that should produce outcomes that justify the investment • Lays out what the nation will get with different investments • Scenario B (FY 2007 level w/COL) - productive, world-class research program at all three frontiers - minor player in next generation Tevascale facility • Scenario A (FY 2008 level w/COL) – not adequate to mount productive, world-class programs at all three frontiers - not part of next generation Tevascale facility – U. S. leadership is significantly diminished • Scenario C (FY 2007 ACI level) – Scenario B, but faster, cheaper and better! • Scenario D (additional above C) – the funding needed to host next generation Tevascale facility 5
