Neutrino Factory R&D in Europe

CERN, Geneva, Switzerland

Organisation of European R&D:
Previously the CERN Neutrino Factory Working Group was quite active together with other European labs.
Then came (BIG surprise?) the LHC catastrophy…Huge reduction in accelerator R&D
CLIC cut drastically (to around 4 MCHF)
SPL down to around 200 k€
Neutrino Activity down to a bit of travel money
(That‘s why I am still here…)

There are, however, a few positive points:
We have some (positive) impact from directors of big European labs with the intention to contribute towards neutrino R&D in
spite of CERN‘s reduction!
FIRST SET OF BASIC GOALS
The long-term goal is to have a Conceptual Design Report for a European Neutrino Factory Complex by the time of LHC start-up, so that, by that date, this would be a valid option for the future of CERN.
An earlier construction for the proton driver (SPL + accumulator & compressor rings) is conceivable and, of course, highly desirable. The SPL, targetry and horn R&D have therefore to be given the highest priority.
We have a European Muon Concertation and Oversight Group (EMCOG)

MUON Weeks
MUON Weeks: Organized by V. Palladino:
3/year at different locations in Europe at participating labs. Covers physics and machine aspects.
Resources at all European labs (manpower and money) very limited => ask the EU for support!
No hope in the past for support from EU neither for high energy physics nor for accelerators,
especially not for CERN.
H. HaserothJune 5, 2003 NuFact03

…but now there is FP6 (framework program 6) of the European Union
and ECFA is encouraged to ask for EU support.
Another committee of lab directors
of CCLRC, CERN, DAPNIA/CEA, DESY, LNF, Orsay/IN2P3, and PSI in consultation with ECFA
have decided to form a European Steering Group on Accelerator R&D
(ESGARD)

Two Contact Groups (CG) issued from ESGARD have been set up to bidding preparation, one of electron-positron linear colliders and one on super proton accelerators and neutrino beams. These CGs will create Working Groups (WG) with the people of the community involved in the relevant activities. They also maintain close contact with existing committees, boards and teams. The mandate of the CGs is to:
1.To act as liaison between ESGARD and the community involved in accelerator studies related to the selected theme. 2.To inform the relevant community of the proposals being developed on accelerator R&D for FP6 and form a Working Group to :
•Establish a proposal for Networking Activities (NA) related to each theme, •Develop proposals for Joint Research Projects (JRP), •Explore whether Transnational Access (TA) as defined by the EU commission is applicable to the accelerator community and, if so, make a proposal,
3.Together with the WG and in consultation with ESGARD, propose the names of the coordinators for the different activities (NA, TA and JRP). 4.Investigate with the WG whether proposals for Design Studies (DS) and/or Construction of New Infrastructures (CNI) as defined by the EU commission is applicable and identify their scope.
•Contact Group 1 on e+e- Linear Colliders : A. Antonelli, G. Guignard, F. Richard, S. Smith and D. Trines
•Contact Group 2 on super proton-accelerators and neutrino beams : R. Aleksan, H. Haseroth, P. Norton and A. Wrulich

The R&D on accelerators for high energy physics is organised around three main future world-wide projects:
1.Electron-positron linear colliders with energies ranging between 500 and 3000 GeV in the centre-of-mass system, using the technology of superconductive high gradient accelerator structures recently developed by the TESLA international collaboration, and aiming at exploiting as well the two-beam technique for obtaining ultra-high gradients at room temperature developed by the CLIC international collaboration. 2.Facilities providing intense neutrino beams (see for example NUFACT, using both improvements to the existing methods based on intense proton beams, and the more novel techniques based on radioactive ion or muon beams.3.Facilities providing proton beams with ultra-high intensities and energies, aiming at very large hadron colliders, and covering as well luminosity and energy upgrades of the LHC at CERN.
Neutrino Factories are part of ESGARD activities

From the minutes of the Restricted ECFA, November 29, 2002
The chairman thanked R.Aleksan and ESGARD for the enormous amount of work they have already done as well as M.Spiro who has set the project going (Applause). RECFA fully supports the steps taken by ESGARD in building up the bids and will closely follow its work
Statement made in the Chairman's Summary of Conclusions of the December 2002 SPC meeting at CERN
The SPC strongly supported the effort to co-ordinate the accelerator R&D at the European level through the promotion of the ESGARD initiative to get support of the European Union.
From the minutes of the Restricted ECFA, March 31, 2003
RECFA was impressed by the huge amount of work done by ESGARD and congratulated them for having so successfully built the proposal on accelerator R&D to the 6th EU Framework Programme. This proposal includes 6 Joint Research Projects and 3 Networks Activities, which are all considered with high priority by RECFA

HIPPI
In the frame of the CARE Initiative (ESGARD), Joint Research Activity called HIPPI (High Intensity Pulsed proton Injector) (total 6 JRA’s)
8 European Laboratories join efforts for a common R&D on high intensity linacs with energy in the range 3-200 MeV (CEA, CERN, ISN-Grenoble, GSI, IAP-Frankfurt, FZ Juelich, RAL, INFN-Mi) to prepare the upgrade of the proton accelerator facilities at CERN, GSI, RAL
4 Work Packages: 1. Normal-conducting accelerating structures2. Superconducting accelerating structures3. Beam chopping4. Beam dynamics
Total investment of some 15 M€ (including lab salaries), request to EU for a contribution of 4 M€ over 5 years (2004-08)
For CERN, this means 130 k€/yr (…).

• LEP RF cavities are getting older...
• New technology can provide better performance (=gradient!)
• More EU-wide interest on 700 MHz frequency, bulk Nb
• Consequences:
1. Slowly relax the option on the LEP cavities
2. Consider 700 MHz already for the 100-150 MeV at Linac4.
3. Start market survey for 700 MHz klystrons
4. R&D options must be valid for both frequencies

Current StatusCERN have had considerable success with studies of mercury jets (with BNL), including within solenoidal fields.
CERN are are also studying granular targets.
PSI are building a liquid metal target. They are involved with the US in liquid metal targets for high power spallation sources.
RAL has done preliminary tests on shock waves in hot tantalum using electron beams.
CERN ISOLDE have experience of the problems of radioactivity and of shock waves. They have a laboratory suitable for handling active materials and molten metals - mercury.
CERN, PSI (not pulsed) and RAL have facilities providing high power proton beams. Also in the US at Los Alamos, Brookhaven and FNAL.

The Liquid Metal (Mercury) JetThe jet is constantly being reformed for every pulse. The jet becomes “heated” by the beam and disperses to hit the walls
No Problems with:
• Radiation Damage
• Shock Damage
• Power dissipation
Possible Problems with:
• Jet formation
• Interaction with the magnetic field
• Interaction of the mercury with other equipment
Tests to date indicate that the jet is viable

What are the problems?• Proton beam power: 4 MW
• Target to cope with high power(must be a high Z target because of the modest proton energy)
• Horn to be pulsed at: 50 Hz(Linac frequency)
•It would be much simpler if we had only 1 MW and e.g. 12.5 Hz
H. HaserothJune 5, 2003 NuFact03
52
How does it work?• The proton beam is switched to 4 targets in sequence.• Each of the 4 pion lines contains an integrated system of
target and magnetic horn.• The funnel is made of large aperture magnets with
quadrupolar and pulsed dipolar coils.
•No exotic and expensive technology.
•Lifetime in excess of one year.
•Evolutionary design.
