ITRP Status Report2 Why ITRP? Two parallel developments over the past few years (the science & the technology) –The precision information from LEP and other data have pointed to a low mass Higg’s; Understanding electroweak symmetry breaking, whether supersymmetry or an alternate will require precision measurements. –Designs and technology demonstrations have matured on two technical approaches for an e + e - collider that would be well matched to our present understanding of the physics –There are strong arguments for having a period of complementarity between a LC and the LHC

27-July-04ITRP Status Report3 Electroweak Precision Measurements LEP results strongly point to a low mass Higgs and an energy scale for new physics < 1TeV

27-July-04ITRP Status Report4 Why ITRP? Two parallel developments over the past few years (the science & the technology) –The precision information from LEP and other data have pointed to a low mass Higg’s; Understanding electroweak symmetry breaking, whether supersymmetry or an alternate will require precision measurements. –Designs and technology demonstrations have matured on two technical approaches for an e + e - collider that would be well matched to our present understanding of the physics –There are strong arguments for having a period of complementarity between a LC and the LHC

27-July-04ITRP Status Report11 Why ITRP? Two parallel developments over the past few years (the science & the technology) –The precision information from LEP and other data have pointed to a low mass Higg’s; Understanding electroweak symmetry breaking, whether supersymmetry or an alternate will require precision measurements. –Designs and technology demonstrations have matured on two technical approaches for an e + e - collider that would be well matched to our present understanding of the physics –There are strong arguments for having a period of complementarity between a ~ TeV LC and the LHC

27-July-04ITRP Status Report12 Arguments for LHC / LC Complementarity LHC should discover the Higg’s. –The LC will be needed to determine the mass. spin, parity, precision branching ratios ttbar coupling, and Higgs self coupling Standard Model is incomplete and the LHC should see evidence of the new physics. –In all cases, LC is needed to provide crucial information (e.g. supersymmetry) or orthogonal measurements (e.g. number of large extra dimensions, anomalous trilinear boson couplings).

27-July-04ITRP Status Report13 The 500 GeV Linear Collider Spin Measurement LHC should discover the Higgs The linear collider will measure the spin of any Higgs it can produce. The process e + e –  HZ can be used to measure the spin of a 120 GeV Higgs particle. The error bars are based on 20 fb –1 of luminosity at each point. LHC/LC Complementarity The Higgs must have spin zero

27-July-04ITRP Status Report14 Extra Dimensions New space-time dimensions can be mapped by studying the emission of gravitons into the extra dimensions, together with a photon or jets emitted into the normal dimensions. Linear collider LHC/LC Complementarity

27-July-04ITRP Status Report15 Why Downselect Now? We have an embarrassment of riches !!!! –Two alternate designs -- “warm” and “cold” have come to the stage where the show stoppers have been eliminated and the concepts are well understood. –R & D is very expensive (especially D) and to move to the “next step” (being ready to construct such a machine within ~ 5 years) will require more money and a concentration of resources, organization and a worldwide effort. –It is too expensive and too wasteful to try to do this for both technologies. –A major step toward a decision to construct a new machine will be enabled by the down select, followed by a global design effort for the recommended technology. –The final construction decision in ~5 years will be able to fully take into account early LHC and other physics developments.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report16

27-July-04ITRP Status Report17 Over the past decade, studies in Asia, Europe and North America have described the scientific case for a future electron-positron linear collider [1,2,3,4]. A world-wide consensus has formed for a baseline LC project with centre-of-mass energies up to 500 GeV and with luminosity above cm- 2 s- 1 [5]. Beyond this firm baseline machine, several upgrades and options are envisaged whose weight, priority and realization will depend upon the results obtained at the LHC and the baseline LC. This document, prepared by the Parameters Subcommittee of the International Linear Collider Steering Committee, provides a set of parameters for the future Linear Collider and the corresponding values needed to achieve the anticipated physics program. Preamble to the List of Parameters

27-July-04ITRP Status Report18 The Charge to the International Technology Recommendation Panel General Considerations The International Technology Recommendation Panel (the Panel) should recommend a Linear Collider (LC) technology to the International Linear Collider Steering Committee (ILCSC). On the assumption that a linear collider construction commences before 2010 and given the assessment by the ITRC that both TESLA and JLC-X/NLC have rather mature conceptual designs, the choice should be between these two designs. If necessary, a solution incorporating C-band technology should be evaluated.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report22 We have Developed a Set of Criteria for Evaluating and Helping to Make the Linear Collider Technology Choice This document sets out the criteria by which the International Technology Recommendation Panel (ITRP) ( ) will select the technology for a e+e- Linear Collider (LC), initially operating at energies up to 500 GeV, with subsequent upgradability to about 1 TeV, and with some potential options. The parameters for the LC were adopted by the International Linear Collider Steering Committee (ILCSC) in November 2003 (

27-July-04ITRP Status Report23 The overriding criterion for the choice of technologies will be the ability to meet the scientific goals for the Linear Collider, as set forth in “Understanding Matter, Energy, Space and Time: the Case for the Linear Collider”, prepared under the auspices of the ILCSC ( ), and the documents prepared by the Asian, European and North American collaborations cited therein. The elements for the criteria matrix are grouped into six major areas: the scope and parameters specified by the ILCSC; scope and parameters issues; technical issues; cost issues; schedule issues; physics operation issues; and more general considerations that reflect the impact of the LC on science, technology and society. The matrix will be used qualitatively to guide the ITRP in differentiating the two technologies, and in highlighting the areas that require particular focus during the process. Criteria for ITRP Recommendation

27-July-04ITRP Status Report24 Meetings 2,3 and 4 Site Visits to DESY, KEK and SLAC Information gathering on Tesla, NLC and GLC Designs I should emphasize that we are not developing our recommendation from what has been designed and accomplished for each technology. Rather, we are using that information, plus our own judgements to determine which technology is the better choice for a global design effort towards construction of a linear collider To evaluate our selection criteria, we have also posed a set of 34 specific questions to the proponents, each of which had direct relevance to items in our “Set of Criteria”

27-July-04ITRP Status Report25 Process of Evaluating the Criteria Matrix We are analyzing the design choice through studying a matrix having six general categories with specific items under each: –the scope and parameters specified by the ILCSC; –technical issues; –cost issues; –schedule issues; –physics operation issues; –and more general considerations that reflect the impact of the LC on science, technology and society This is an internal process to help guide the ITRP decision and we have decided the detailed list of items in the matrix should remain internal and only available to ITRP.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report26 Questions to the Proponents We formulated 34 questions, which we submitted to the proponents. These questions cover many of the key issues, technical and non-technical relevant to our decision. The proponents have responded to the questions in writing in a several month long process that included interactions with ITRP ITRP has done its own detailed evaluation of each of these questions and we have discussed each evaluation in detail in our executive sessions These questions give a pretty good idea of the type of criteria we are evaluating, so I include them in the following slides

27-July-04ITRP Status Report27 Common LC technology questions 1) Please analyze for us the prospects and problems associated with achieving the parameter goals outlined in the report of the Parameters Subcommittee of the ILCSC. 2) Describe the methods for measuring the luminosity profile with energy, absolute beam energy and polarization to the specified precision. 3) Are the klystrons now developed sufficiently to power the LC in an efficient way at full energy? What further development is necessary? What margins are needed for adequate performance in the number of spares, MTBF, delivered power, pulse shaping? What is required for breakdown recovery, repair and replacement procedures? 4) Describe the tests and simulations needed to demonstrate that the couplers between waveguides to the linac vacuum within structures or cavities will be sufficiently robust.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report28 Common LC technology questions 5) How will the low level rf systems required for bunch compression, cavity tuning, machine protection, etc. be designed so as to perform reliably enough not to compromise machine operation? 6) Describe the positron production design, and detail the measurements and simulations needed to establish the mechanical, thermal designs and the system reliability. Describe the reasons for your particular choice and the advantages and disadvantages. 7) Describe the steps in the scheme to align the rf structures/cavities, quadrupoles, BPMs, and beam delivery elements needed to obtain the ab initio gold orbit and subsequent corrections on the time scale of intrabunch train, train to train, and slower time scales from seconds to days. What tests assure that this procedure will work and what R&D remains? Describe the time requirements for the tuning procedures and distinguish between intercepting and non- intercepting techniques.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report29 Common LC technology questions 8) Evaluate the electron-cloud effects for the positron beam in damping ring, bunch compressor, linac, and beam delivery system. Is there an R&D plan to cure them? 9) What demonstration can be offered now, or during the R&D phase, that the damping rings design is robust with respect to space charge induced emittance growth, fast kickers, the x-y emittance coupling and emittance growth limitation. What estimates for loss of beam availability can be made? Describe the timing requirements for the tuning procedures. 10) What are the most severe radiation damage (to electronics or machine elements) issues, and how will they be mitigated? Describe the machine protection system and the studies needed to demonstrate its effectiveness? Describe the analysis of probabilities for catastrophic beam loss. 11) Describe how the effects of power supply failures on integrated luminosity will be mitigated.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report30 Common LC technology questions 12) Describe the way that vacuum failures in the linacs will be controlled so as not to compromise machine operation or cause damage to sensitive components. What is the impact from repairs that require bringing major sections of the linac to atmospheric pressure? 13) Describe the steps needed to operate the LC for precision electroweak measurements at 90 (or 160) GeV with the necessary control of beam energy calibration and stability. What special hardware modifications are needed? What luminosity may be expected? What setup time is required to change from high to low energy operation? 14) What is the time estimated to change the energy and re- establish stable operation by steps of ~1% (threshold scan), a few%, or more than 10%?

27-July-04ITRP Status Report31 L-band specific questions 15) How can the R1 cryomodule test issue be addressed without the full cryomodule availability at this time? 16) What evidence can be given that the 2.5 km cables for transporting high voltage pulses from moderators to klystrons will provide adequate repairability and reliability? 17) How will the TESLA cryogenic systems be controlled to avoid loss of luminosity or component damage?

27-July-04ITRP Status Report32 X-band specific questions 18) Detail the status of the rf structure design and testing. What vulnerabilities still exist for structure damage that could limit the useful life of the accelerator complex. What further studies of the structures are needed to arrive at an engineering design? 19) Detail the status of the tests of the full rf delivery system. What vulnerabilities still exist, and how much R&D is required to reach a full technical design. 20) The X-band collider has much tighter requirements for the alignment of the beam orbit with the structure axis, yet the basic instrumental precision for alignment is the same as for the L-band collider. The SLC had great difficulty reaching its design luminosity in part because of the difficulty in controlling the beam orbit How can it be demonstrated that the necessary control of the orbit can be obtained for the GLC/NLC?

27-July-04ITRP Status Report33 Cost & Schedule Questions 21) Comment on the construction costs and life cycle costs for the two technologies, noting any exceptions or additional information that will help our understanding of the cost comparison. 22) What are the reasons and comparisons between one and two tunnel designs for cost optimization, radiation damage, rf system repairs and reliability? 23) What is the ratio of the cost increment for raising the energy from 500 to 1000 GeV to the cost of the baseline 500 GeV machine? 24) For L-band, provide a modified cost estimation for 500 GeV, assuming 35 MV/m operation and a shorter linac from the beginning..For X-band, provide a modified cost estimation with unloaded gradients 60 and 55 MV/m.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report34 Cost and Schedule Questions 25) Delineate the R&D program remaining before a technical design review (TDR) and full cost estimate can be prepared. What are the major projects and the approximate cost of the technical system R&D needed to validate the design. 26) Show a technically limited schedule for proceeding to a full TDR, and estimate the schedule for the subsequent linear collider construction. What are the controlling milestones? What are the major technical schedule vulnerabilities? 27) Outline the key steps for industrialization of machine components, the likely remaining vulnerabilities in achieving them. 28) What is the site power required? 29) Provide a technically limited schedule, starting with construction, moving to operation at 500 GeV until 500 fb-1 have been accumulated, and followed by an upgrade to 1 TeV.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report35 General Considerations 30) Machine Goals Does your technology allow an earlier start to the physics program, so as to be as concurrent as possible with LHC operation? How do you make the case for determining the final energy choice for the LC prior to LHC results? What if LHC results indicate that a higher energy than design is required ? What are the prospects of a luminosity upgrade ? Considering that LC will start much later (although it can have concurrent operation period) than LHC, what physics capability does LC have which LHC does not share? Can this be realized at 500Gev or does it require much higher energy? 31) : Does your technology offer a higher probability of reaching the baseline energy goal earlier, and why ? Would your technology allow an easier upgrade path ?

27-July-04ITRP Status Report36 General Considerations 32) Does your technology offer a higher probability of reaching luminosity goal of acquiring 500 fb-1 within 5 years of turn-on? 33) Describe the effect upon your laboratory of a) the warm vs. cold decision, and b) choice of site. 34) Discuss the support of the accelerator community for your technology and to whatever extent your technology has outreach into other accelerator areas?

27-July-04ITRP Status Report37 Korea ITRP Meeting - Meeting 6 We have a full three day meeting scheduled for August, just prior to the Beijing international meeting on HEP We are on the schedule we set out in January that would enable a possible decision in August. We have completed all of our preparatory work to making a decision As a committee, we are all hoping to reach a decision at this meeting and everyone has agreed to stay through the evening of the third day to insure that we have enough time. I am personally optimistic, but must emphasize that our charge gives us until the end of We only expect to issue a recommendation following the Korea meeting, if we succeed in reaching a consensus supported by the entire committee.

27-July-04ITRP Status Report38 The Future and the Funding Agencies This technology choice is a very difficult one, but it does matter! History will play out very differently depending on the choice. We will need funding agency support of the technical decision, because there will be losers. The health of field requires moving forward productively behind the chosen technology. A large part of the world-wide HEP community is behind this; young people support this direction physicists have signed the document “understanding matter,energy, space and time: the case for the linear collider” As we move into the next phase of a global design, the funding agencies will need to interact with the governance structure -- both in the near term and further along.
