24 Moving Project X Forward Strategy Maintain strong engagement with U.S. strategic planning processes –DOE/SC Ten-Year Facilities Strategy –APS/DPF Community Summer Study (Snowmass on the Mississippi) Maintain CD-0 documentation in a continuing state of readiness –Up-to-date Reference Design Report –Up-to-date Construction Cost Estimate (by stage) –Up-to-date resource requirements for the pre-CD3 phase Align R&D program with risk reduction associated with the Reference Design –Priority on Stages 1 and 2 –Prepare for FY18 construction start Support DOE in negotiating contributions from India PAC June 2013, S.

25 Moving Project X Forward DOE DOE Intensity Frontier Workshop –Direct input into all WGs – good coverage in final report in all topical areas www.intensityfrontier.org Office of Science Facilities Plan –Presentations and Whitepapers to HEPAP Facilities Subpanel indico.fnal.gov/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=6381 The importance and breadth of the research program that the Project X accelerator facility enables and enhances leads the accelerator facility to be classified as absolutely central. Although R&D is still required for the spallation target needed by some experiments, all stages of the Project X accelerator facility are ready to initiate construction. Project X experiments that compose the research program range from important to absolutely central, but scientifically the Project X research program as a whole is classified as absolutely central. Being in the planning phase, the construction readiness of the Project X research program is classified as mission and technical requirements not yet fully defined, although some experiments are beyond this phase.

28 1 GeV protons Spallation Target Cold Neutrons Fission Materials Fusion Materials Physics Isotopes PNNL Energy Station Concept evolving into Project X Integrated Target Station Goal Develop integrated spallation target station concept to serve DOE-NE, DOE- SC-FES/HEP/NP experimental needs 28 Rational CW spallation neutron source could augment limited US irradiation testing capability Synergy between Physics experimental needs and materials testing for fusion and fission communities Project X – Stage 1 Could provide ~1 MW of beam dedicated to a spallation neutron source for nuclear materials and fuels research (Energy Station) or shared with a physics mission facility with similar neutron source requirements (Integrated Target Station)

29 Project X Integrated Target Station has the potential to benefit several areas (beyond HEP) Highest priority opportunities within the US Nuclear and Fusion energy programs are irradiation of fusion and fast reactor structural materials. Must provide a fusion and fast reactor relevant neutron flux at a minimum of 20 dpa per calendar year in a reasonable irradiation volume. Enable the in-situ real-time measurements of various separate-effects phenomena in fuels or materials, which would be very valuable to the modeling and simulation technical community. Such capabilities are more feasible in an accelerator-based system than a reactor integral effects testing of fast reactor fuels, including driver fuel, minor actinide burning fuel, and transmutation of spent fuel. support DOE Office of Nuclear Energy plus Office of Science programs Materials Program - Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) Isotope Production Program – Nuclear Physics (NP) ultra cold neutrons – Nuclear Physics (NP) 29

31 Possible Muon Spin Resonance at Project X  SR is a technique invented by Garwin and Lederman. Polarized Muons from stopped pions embedded in material. Spin precession gives information on local fields. No U.S. facility since LAMPF. – PSI, J-PARC, TRIUMF, ISIS (RAL) have active programs – Programs tend to only be able to handle 50% of current demand. – Likely construction of a beamline at RISP also. – Synergy with neutron scattering – real space vs. Fourier transform space. User communities overlap.

32 Concept for Project X Of greatest scientific interest right now are very low-energy muons (LEM), ~few keV for studies of 10-100 nm depths. LEM requires high power beam. (~5 x 10 -13  per proton). PX provides competitive intensities and can benefit from being a new facility to use optimized targetry and beamlines. PX beam flexibility can also be exploited via multiple low-power beamlines of conventional (4 MeV) muons. These beams can be used for fundamental physics. – Classic example is muonium- antimuonium oscillation search. Depth Profile of typical LEM experiment

33 Status and Activities At present, design is “discussional”. Concepts and layouts being explored. Little experience => making contacts with experts. Extremely successful MuSR Workshop held at FNAL, October 17-19 2012 – Attended by most major experts in the field. – Accelerators, materials science, chemistry. – University and laboratory scientists, international. Together with ongoing interactions, it is forming the basis of a section for “Broader Impacts” document for Project X. “Pre-conceptual” layout and capabilities generated for that purpose, and to encourage further work.
