1. Fermilab Neutrino Program Jim Strait Neutrino Discussion at CERN 26 November 2013

2. Fermilab Accelerator Complex LBNE

3. Ongoing Accelerator Upgrades LBNE Main Injector (being commissioned now): double beam power by stacking beam in the Recycler and decreasing MI cycle time Muon Campus (2013-2018): convert antiproton source to meet needs of the muon program Proton Improvement Plan (2012-2018): double beam power of the proton source by increasing rep-rate 40  80 kW @ 8 GeV 350  700 kW @ 120 GeV

4. 4 Next Accelerator Upgrades New 800 MeV SRF, CW capable linac: 80  120 kW @ 8 GeV 0.7  1.2 MW @ 80 -120 GeV Ready before LBNE starts Reorientation of “Project X” (now Proton Improvement Plan II) to focus on beam power for neutrinos. 0.8 to 3 GeV & 3 to 8 GeV linacs replaces Booster 1.2  2.3 MW @ 60 -120 GeV ~5 years years later Plan to be presented at P5 meeting, 16 Dec at BNL

5. U.S. neutrino program Accelerator based  Neutrino Experiments using Fermilab Accelerators  T2K  ICARUS  … Reactor based  Daya Bay, Double CHOOZ, … Neutrino-less double beta decay  EXO, MAJORANA demonstrator, CUORE, … Topic for this presentation

6. Neutrino Program (both and beams) Measure and characterize the pattern of neutrino masses and mixings:  MINOS / MINOS+  NOvA  LBNE Discover if the situation is more complex than 3 neutrinos with Standard Model Interactions:  MINOS / MINOS+  NOvA  LBNE  MiniBooNE  MicroBooNE Proposed:  ICARUS, LAr1-ND  STORM Neutrino interactions / cross sections and neutrino engineering measurements that make the above points possible:  MiniBooNE  MINERvA  MicroBooNE  LBNE ND / Proposed:  ICARUS, LAr1-ND  STORM _
