5. WBS 1.1 LINAC Summary Tasks at a Glance = Task expected to be complete during shutdown = Significant progress but not complete = Non-shutdown activity = Task de-scoped = Task status changed since last report Highlights since last report Utilities  L1 transformer  Installation delayed to later year due to complication with installation plan  MCC upgrade – to be complete this week!  Vacuum  blowers received and installed complete  A0 dewar repair complete  beam valves ordered (waiting delivery ) Instrumentation  Receiving partial deliver new PCB boards  All new NIM crates and cables installed in all 5 different locations 5 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012

6. WBS 1.1.1 200MHZ RF Power System WBS 1.1.1.1 HLRF  Detailed analyses of 4 possible options  Maintain 7835 triode tubes  200 MHz klystron upgrade  Thales tube upgrade (quasi LANL design)  400 MHz front-end Linac  Write-up complete in August  PIP management recommends a) That the lab should invest in the 200 MHz klystron (~$8.5M) b) That the PIP team should continue with effort in WBS 1.1.1.2 for new tube base modulator (~ $5M)  Specification was written and finalized (Specification Number: MBK201FERMI Rev. 1)  Bid process complete and awarded to CPI with quotation type CPFF & ROM  NRE and prototype ~ $2M  Production price ~ $1M  ETD: 12/1/2014 6 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012

7. WBS 1.1.1 200MHZ RF Power System WBS 1.1.1.2 Modulator 3 different modulator designs, each with detailed simulations, costing and timeframe  CEC – Solid State Modulator with 48 stages coupled via HV transformer Total cost between $5.9 - 9.6M  SLAC – Marx Modulator with two different 4kV stage types (10 Main stages & 5 vernier stages, both 4kV) Total cost ~ $4.5M  Fermilab – Marx Modulator with three different 950 Volt stage types (40 Main stages, 12 regulating stages, and one adjustable stage) Total cost ~$4.36M Technical design reviewed in August 2012  special consideration given for the modulator slew rate (15kV/us), beam tilt (+/-10kV), and flat top regulation (+/- 25 Volts) Based on cost, ability to strength multi-lab collaborations, adaptability to powering a multi-beam klystron, overall design and scheduling, the CEC design was dropped in favor of continuing engineering effort on both the SLAC and Fermilab Marx modulators during FY13  SLAC proposes engineering study to build a lower voltage two cell prototype for design testing $75k  Fermilab proposed and started the design of a lower voltage 10 cell modulator prototype ($40k materials plus labor) 7 William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012

17. Issues FY12

18. Issues WBS 1.3 RFQ – Task completes when commissioning starts  FY12 was end of M&S – looks like we do not need additional funds  Only labor remaining – about 10 people until mid November WBS 1.1 Linac  Transformer did not get installed due to complexity with size Will need to add some funding for install Will need to find a good install date once solution is decided  Klystron was partially paid for – still need to move 600k into task  Still pursuing new modulator (7835) effort until HLRF path is defined  Linac Optics – loss of people – need committed long term effort WBS 1.2 Booster  Cavity Refurbishment – Labor & Time constraints  Booster shielding still needs resolution  Booster Rep rate limit – still unresolved and require testing  Booster has not found a ferrite that meets our High μ need  Booster Optics – need to replace Grad student and additional work William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012 18

19. Near Term Plans - Schedule

20. Required for 12 HzRequired for Flux Required for 15 Hz Required for Reliability Completion Date Before FY13 Budget Reduction William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012 Task identified as a goal requirement but many of these overlap. Recent Budget guidance still being worked through the planning and RLS process. 20 PIP Gant (Using FY12 Estimates)

21. PIP – Previous and Projected Cycle Rate William Pellico, Fermilab PMG,October 25 2012 21

24. Additional PIP Items

25. Budget Impact Mitigation / Collaboration It has been proposed that the budget impacts could be mitigated with help from institutions involved with experiments  Easiest way is to just transfer a whole lot of money, but we realize that is unlikely We have identified two concrete ways contributions could be made  Students/postdocs on beam physics issues RFQ commissioning, linac optics, booster optics & instabilities, dampers, laser notcher, rf system development, rf instrumentation Need volunteers who are at Fermilab and can contribute at least ~ 0.5 FTE-yr to be useful  University machining Some success with this in the past University shops can be available at an inexpensive rate Many PIP areas require various levels of machining / fabrication Need volunteers and a streamlined method for processing the work (MOUs? POs? Bidding?)

26. Model – Outside Involvement Previous model – mid 00s  One liaison on lab side (Prebys) Projects in Linac, Booster, Main Injector  One liaison on experimental side (Michael) Activity form MINOS & MiniBooNE institutions Model for this interaction  PIP only? AD-wide? Liaison from PIP?  Numerous experiments Single liaison? One from each experiment? Mutual benefit  PIP: Inexpensive machining and scientific help  Universities: business for their shops, topics for students Also need to develop some reward structure within experiments (service tasks, shift credit)

A total of 5 skilled techs, we could reasonably turn cavities around in the ~6-7 week range. Currently we are planning for 10 week per cavity refurb. The first three cavities took much longer – the best took 11 weeks.
