Congratulations to Sacha!Congratulations to Sacha!
Great job over the last two years on all fronts!
Guiding the UEC Communication across the user community Representing the Fermilab user community to the lab Communication with the public and elected
representatives, presenting the excitement of particle physics
Organizing the Users’ Meeting Bringing US facilities user’s groups together

Congratulations to all of youCongratulations to all of you
Tremendously productive year: Ph.D. thesis, publications, observations and discoveries
Record performance. Since last Users’meeting: doubled!! the Tevatron integrated luminosity more than doubled the neutrino data to MINOS largest sample of antineutrino collisions at MiniBooNE more than doubled life time for dark matter search largest sample of high energy cosmic rays (Auger)

You have earned the right to dreamYou have earned the right to dream
Discover the Higgs and supersymmetry in the Tevatron and follow up richness with the LHC
Discover a large neutrino electron appearance rate with MINOS and discover mass hierarchy with NOvA
Discover the dark matter particle with CDMS II and follow that with the LHC
Discover point sources with Pierre Auger Discover new phenomena with MiniBooNE Land the ILC at Fermilab, NSF builds DUSEL

Programs and the Programs and the FutureFuture The Energy Frontier
Tevatron, LHC ILC
The neutrino frontier Minos, MiniBooNe, SciBooNe NOvA, Minerva
Particle Astrophysics SDSS, Pierre Auger, CDMS II DES, CDMS-25kg, SNAP

EPP 2010 + P5 RecommendationsEPP 2010 + P5 Recommendations
Highest priorities LHC and ILC Most of the available resources 60% to ILC R&D Maintain breadth of the field with other 40%
In FY08 run PEP II and Tevatron, and start: Dark Energy Survey (DES)Cold Dark Matter Search Super CDMS-25kgNOvA long base line neutrino programDaya Bay reactor neutrino experiment
For the longer term, prepare SNAP and LSST
THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL AND EXCITING PROGRAM.

From another angle: timeline and From another angle: timeline and maximum stress!maximum stress!
Foundation: must deliver on investments Tevatron Neutrino program
Must turn on the LHC and CMS
Must develop the ILC for the long term future
Must have an intermediate program

Success in a complex environmentSuccess in a complex environment
Needed resources to ramp-up the ILC: clear, but suspected (not hard) limits.
How do you sell a ramp up for a facility that is
contingent on LHC results soon.
Termination of facilities: Tevatron running beyond 2010? Have to decide next year
1111
Success in a complex environmentSuccess in a complex environment
Intermediate program: only partially developed. Preserves HEP accelerator strengths only with early ILC; opportunities while we build ILC?
Complex international environment politically, sociologically and financially.
Competition for resources. It is sustainable energy! : it speaks to the public and elected representatives. The DOE’s day has come.

KeyKey
Community coming together behind a comprehensive plan that is resilient and exciting
Active and comprehensive plan to “sell” HEP and ILC: initial push has to be for importance of basic science and HEP; HEP as an international enterprise
Cannot overemphasize importance of LHC
Interagency collaboration: DOE, NSF, NASA
