16. 16 PAC report on P04 (July 2006) “… This experiment will exploit the unique opportunity to study the sea quark distribution at the 50 GeV J-PARC accelerator. The PAC recognizes the physics potential and expects that interesting results will come from the experiment.” “... The cost and schedule of the experiment at J-PARC strongly depends on the situation of the Fermilab (E906) experiment.” “… the physics case is stronger for the primary beam energy at 50 GeV, whose timescale is uncertain. The proponents presented an option to study J/Ψ production at 30 GeV. The PAC considers that this measurement is also interesting, but feels that the experiment is less justified when the study of J/Ψ production becomes the primary purpose.” “… Thus the PAC leaves this experiment in a deferred status.”

17. 17 Status of Fermilab E906 Approved by Fermilab PAC in 2001 Reviewed by Fermilab PAC again in October 2006, and the PAC again endorsed E906 A technical review of E906 was held at Argonne National Lab in December 2006 In June 2007, US DOE/Office of Nuclear Physics decided to fund E906 –Construction of the coils for a new magnet –Construction/refurbishing the hodoscopes and tracking chambers –Construction and installation will be completed by Fall of 2009 E906 is scheduled to run for two years in 2009-2011 Equipments would become available in late 2011

34. 34 Summary We propose to study high-mass dimuon production at J-PARC with a high-rate spectrometer. A rich physics program in Drell-Yan and J/Ψ production can be pursued at J-PARC. Fermilab E906 apparatus could be reused at J-PARC in a cost-effective and efficient manner. J/Ψ production at 30 GeV could provide very interesting new data. It could be dominated by quark- antiquark annihilation similar to Drell-Yan. An extensive program in spin physics can be pursued using this spectrometer together with polarized beam/target in the future. A stage-1 approval for P04 is requested. It is crucial for the preparation of the experiment.
