  3. Vladimir’s Comment #1: 3 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 So far, most of our achievements were in the area of phase-space manipulation: • Cooling (e-cool, stoch) ,emittance exchange • Special beams (elliptic, beam tailoring, u-bunches) We have in-house expertise in that area - that ‘s out strength: • So far there is no appreciation from HEP or BES community for anything except SCRF & 3.9GHz tech Ultra-high acceleration gradient methods so far championed by other labs • Should we step up?

  4. Next Step: AARD at the Advanced Science & Technology Accelerator (ASTA) <40 MeV < 750 MeV < 1 GeV 4 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011

  5. ASTA NML FACET A0 ATF FLASH (DESY) AWA ASTA NML FACET A0 ATF Peak brightness Average brightness AWA (ASTA performances are extrapolated values from the photoinjector simulations) Energy (MeV) ASTA capabilities & Uniqueness • Variable energy from ~40 to ~900 MeV, • High-repetition rate (1-ms trains): • Exploration of dynamical effects in beam-driven acceleration methods. • L-band SCRF linac: • Well suited for beam-driven acceleration, • Photoinjector source: • Provides low-emittancebeam, • Arbitrary emittance partition: • repartition of phase spaces to match final applications, • Tailored current profiles. 5 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011

  6. AARD@ASTA: 10-Year Goal 6 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Establish a center of excellence in advanced accelerator R&D with main missions: • Lead R&D effort relevant to next-generation accelerators with applications to • Discovery science (high-energy physics, condensed matter,…), • Industry (e.g. compact source for EUV lithography), • Defense (stand off cargo inspection, high-power IR beams, …), • Medicine (medical imaging, treatments). • Develop a user-driven facility open to external institutions US-wide anad worldwide. The backbone of the program will be the ASTA Synergetic with the HBESL (High-Brightness Electron Source Laboratory) and the IARC.

  7. 10-year goal: ASTA as a user facility users • An “e-AARD” group should be established to support the AARD activities at ASTA: • 1st pass sanity check of proposals • Selection of proposalfor external review panel. • External program Committee composed of accomplished scientists in the AARD field: • review pre-selected proposals, • Recommend and rank proposals. • Experiments are carried at ASTA: • The e-AARD group collaborates by providing operational and analysis support • Support from AD also needed review +feedback proposal/EOI e-AARDgroup ranking External programcommittee experimental planning+ user support ASTA 7 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011

  8. VS Comment #2: 8 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Overall plan includes: • Finish construction of the source and CM1(2 & 3) • Start “1st wave” experiments ASAP: X-ray radiator, IOTA-ring and DEEX line • Get wider user’s base and start their experiments Important steps include: • Build 40 MeV beam line  start experiments • Select AARD/ASTA program leader (JA UChi?) and establish the program (with all the attributes) • Prepare and perform “round 1” experiments • Convert NML from ILCTA to Users’ Facility

  9. Where are we today: the A0/NML group 9 9 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Strengths: • Small clusters (“A0/NML” group + IOTA enthusiasts) but important contribution to the field, • Ground-breaking experiments (flat beams, emittance exchange, current shaping) through use of the A0 photo-injector in collaboration with AD (decommissioned in 09/2011), • Modeling and theory [collective effects, new acceleration concepts (laser, dielectric,…)], • Design of of IOTA • Backbone facility (ASTA) under construction and is being considered by several potential collaborators (MIT, Vanderbil, Los Alamos, LBNL,…) Weaknesses: • People working on ASTA (1 student FTE + 2 “staff” FTE’s). • No organized effort/leadership (e.g. the “A0/NML” group in APC is a place holder right now)  Lack of coherent effort/coordination. • Backbone facility (ASTA) in construction: it will take some time to be recognized by our peers…

  10. How do we get there: establish a strong e-AARD group out of AARD APC’s group 10 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Goal: Strengthen Fermilab’s role in electron AARD and foster cross-disciplinary user-driven activities at Fermilab Main tasks: • Support external users: • Investigate via computer simulations, feasibility of proposed experiments, • Provide operational and analysis supports, • Collaborate on mutual interests (when applicable). • Carry activities relevant to Fermilab’s missions: • Development of numerical models/theories needed to support /understand experiments at ASTA, • Conduct experiments relevant to Fermilab’s mission of innovation and education in the field of advanced accelerator science. • Initiate new collaborations: • Expand accelerator science collaboration with other institutions, • Expand multidisciplinary research (e.g. use of ASTA beam to other field of sciences)

Beam-drivenacceleration short-wavelengthlight sources Multi-dimensional Cooling ? 11 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011

  12. Near-Term (within 1 year -- FY12): Strengthen A0-NML group 12 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Make a real “e-AARD” group with focus on AARD activities centered at ASTA and HBESL. Define and prioritize coherent effort for members: • Finalize design and performance studies of ASTA: • Design and build key diagnostics (longitudinal phase space, quantify performance of transverse phase space measurements), • Design 40-MeV user beamline -- this be an important short term asset but yet no design exists, • Specify/design short-term FNAL-driven experiments at ASTA: • Advance phase space exchange • Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA), • Commissioning activities (if applicable in FY12): • characterize + optimize the beam out of the photoinjector  important data on ASTA capabilities that can be fed back in simulations • Start collecting expression of interest from potential users and assess they feasibility at ASTA: • on going now but not very organized…

  13. Medium-Term (~FY13-16): Carry high-visibility experiments at 40 MeV 13 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 FY13: Commissioning activities: • characterize + optimize the beam dynamics at ASTA, • Develop/implement diagnostics tune-up procedure (model server?) with AD people (control + NML operation)? FY13-14: Beam dynamics experiments building on A0 experience: • Study of low-energy high-charge bunch compression, • Production of compressed flat beams, FY13-14 Perform collaborative experiments: • Channeling radiation (pending test at HBESL) -- collaboration w. Vanderbilt U. and NIU, • Phase space manipulations at 40 MeV (w. LBNL, Los Alamos, Argonne, MIT,…)

  14. Medium-Term (~FY13-16): Carry high-visibility experiments at 200+ MeV 14 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 FY13: Commissioning activities: • Develop/implement diagnostics tune-up procedure (model server?) with AD people (control + NML operation)? FY13-16: Beam dynamics experiments: • IOTA (w. Oak Ridge) and optical stochastic cooling (w. MIT) • High-energy versatile emittance exchange beamline • Narrow-band Gamma-ray (w. Muons Inc.) • Longitudinal space charge amplifier for attosecond VUV radiation (P. Piot with DESY’s Schneidmiller and Yurkov?)

  15. Long-Term (~FY17-22): Establish ASTA as a user facility with advanced beam tailoring capabilities 15 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 By FY17: Have an operational understanding of the advanced phase space manipulations implemented at ASTA Use these phase space manipulations to tailor the beam to specific applications: • Sheet beam in dielectric structures, • Beam-driven short period undulators (e.g. Image charge undulators), • Microbunch at short wavelength using the versatile emittance exchanger beamline,

  16. Manpower 16 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 Total FTE seems OK for FY12 pending effort is coherent and organized, Effort would benefit from collaboration with • Instrumentation, • Control (need to have some kind of model server and somebody from this group assign on helping us with this), and • Simulation groups. With increase of laser use (photocathode, diagnostics, OSC,…) it might be good to consider the hiring of a laser scientists in the FY13-16 period.

  17. Barriers: Needed M&S (1) 17 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 FY12-13: • 3.9-GHz Deflecting cavities: ($ 250k) • Diagnostics behind bunch compressor and emittance exchange, • Emittance exchange. FY13-14: • 3.9-GHz Accelerating mode cavity: ($ 500k? total) • Linearization of the longitudinal phase space and enhanced compression + two-stage compressor (crucial for FEL-related R&D) • Would also enable current shaping. • IOTA construction: ($ 1M total) • integrable optics (followed by OSC test)

  18. Barriers: Needed M&S (2) 18 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 FY14-17: Deflecting cavities for versatile emittance exchanger at 200+ MeV (at least $ 3M total) • Option 1: go with SCRF cavity arranged in a cryomodule (FLASH AAC39 cost $ 7M price could be cut in half), • Option 2: develop NC system but would need high-power high-frequency (3.9-GHz) klystron to be developed.FY12-18: expand Ti:Sa laser ($ 100k/year in average) • Procure parts to build a larger short-pulse laser (100 mJ/ 30 fs) similar to what being done at HBESL/IARC) important asset for many applications (FEL seeding, advanced beam manipulations, diagnostics)

  19. VS Comment #3: 19 Accelerator Sector Planning and Strategy, 09/27-28/2011 There are too many players, resources are scarce and competition is fierce: We have to show uniqueness: Physics/buck, relevance to the field of HEP/BES, out-scale the competitors (smth no-one else can do)
