European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures Dr Ing

European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures Dr. - Ing. Beatrix VIERKORN-RUDOLPH ESFRI Chair Nu. PECC Long Range Plan 2010, 9 th December 2010

Role of ESFRI • Reflecting on the development of strategic policies for pan. European Research Infrastructures • Exchanging views and exploring common and integrated initiatives • Contributing to the implementation of the Lisbon agenda. • Responding to the need of the scientific community to address the rapidly evolving science frontiers

Structure of ESFRI Executive Board Chair Secretariat (EC) Forum TWG EPS TWG BMS Other working groups TWG SSH TWG ENV TWG ENERGY - e-IRG - ESF -…. The ESFRI Forum was set up 2002 by the EU Council of Research Ministers

European Roadmap for RI • ESFRI has identified new pan-European RI needed in the next 10 to 20 years, regardless of possible location • 50 RIs have been identified through several review stages between 2006 and 2010 • Update of the Roadmap in 2010 in the areas Energy and Biological and Medical Sciences • 10 of the projects are in the implementation phase

Criteria for entering the European Roadmap • Proposal presented by Countries or European organisations • Scientific Case: ü Uniqueness of the facility for the scientific community ü pan-European/international dimension • Maturity of Concept: ü technologically & financially feasible

Process for entering the Roadmap Thematic Working Group 3 landscapes Scientific analysis by external experts of the proposal (taking 3 into account) 4 Stagegate steps Analysis of scientific community needs Peer review no Out Scientific Case ok? yes technical and business analysis 5 no Concept mature? List of emerging ideas yes 6 WG draft Report + possible supporting documents

Projects on ESFRI Roadmap CTA E-ELT Cherenkov Telescope Array for Gamma-ray astronomy European Extremely Large Telescope for optical and infrared astronomy ELI EMFL ESRF upgrade Extreme Light Infrastructure: ultra high intensity short pulse laser European Magnetic Field Laboratory Upgrade of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility Euro. FEL Complementary Free Electron Lasers in the Infrared to soft X-ray range European Spallation Source for neutron spectroscopy Hard X-ray Free Electron Laser Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research Upgrade of the European Neutron Spectroscopy Facility Institut Laue-Langevin European Spallation Source European XFEL FAIR ILL 20/20 upgrade KM 3 Net SKA Spiral 2 Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope Square Kilometre Array Radio Telescope Facility for the production and study of rare isotope radioactive beams

Example: EPS FAIR Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR will provide high energy primary and secondary beams of ions of highest intensity and quality, including an “antimatter beam” of antiprotons allowing forefront research in five different disciplines of physics Construction costs: 1187 M€ Operation costs: 120 M€/year Decommissioning costs: to be estimated

FAIR Status • Convention signed on October 4, 2010 – 9 countries have signed, several more negotiating • FAIR Gmb. H founded on same day – Overall project management – Experiment coordination – Operation of FAIR accelerators and experiments • Director-General: Prof. Boris Sharkov • Admin. Director: Dr. Simone Richter • Tech.

FAIR Finance FAIR Status • „Modularized Start Version“ Modules 0 -5 – Re-reviewed in summer/autumn 2009 – Cost: 1027 M€ (2005 prices) for modules 0 -3 – Financing inc. experiment contributions: 1029 M€ • Physics pillars: – Atomic, Plasma and Applied Physics (APPA) – Nuclear Structure, Astrophysics and Reactions (NUSTAR) – Nuclear matter: Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) – Antiprotons: Proton Antiproton Darmstadt (Panda) – Facility for Low-Energy Antiproton and Ion Research (FLAIR) – in module 4

Example: EPS SPIRAL 2 Facility for the production and study of rare isotope radioactive beams SPIRAL 2 is a new European facility to be built at GANIL laboratory in Caen, France. The project aims at delivering stable and rare isotope beams with intensities not yet available with present machines. SPIRAL 2 will reinforce the European leadership in the field of nuclear physics based on exotic nuclei Construction costs: 196 M€ Operation costs: 6, 6 M€/year Decommissioning costs: 10 M€

Example: EPS ELI Extreme Light Infrastructure ELI is devoted to scientific research in laser science, dedicated to the investigation and applications of laser-matter interaction at the highest intensity level As distributed facility, ELI will offer fascinating opportunities to a broad scientific community, e. g. for the study of photonuclear reactions and astrophysical applications Construction costs: 790 M€ Operation costs: 82 M€/year (for all three sites) Decommissioning costs: to be estimated

Prep Phase Projects s. LHC Large Hadron Collider upgrade The s. LHC project (super LHC) aims for a tenfold increase in luminosity for 14 Te. V proton– proton collisions, achieved through the successive implementation of several new elements and technical improvements that are scheduled for 2013– 2018 The s. LHC-PP project will address crucial issues like the maturity of new technologies required for s. LHC, solutions for critical safety issues

Prep Phase Projects TIARA Test Infrastructure and Accelerator Research Area TIARA intends to integrate national and international accelerator R&D infrastructures into a single distributed European accelerator R&D facility The elaboration of the means and structures enabling the realization of the TIARA objectives will be carried out through the TIARA Preparatory Phase project

Prep Phase Projects ILC-Hi. Grade International Linear Collider and High Gradient Superconducting RF-Cavities One of the main objectives of this project is to create at least 24 accelerating cavities, superconducting components made of pure niobium for the planned International Linear Collider (ILC) Development of a possible organisation and governance for the ILC as well as a detailed study on possible sites in Europe
