48 | Activity where accelerator and particle physicists together and coherently |

61 | an unprecedented facility for fundamental experiments |

71 | <p><b>The investigation of the properties of neutrinos </b><font color="#FF0000">(n)</font>, |
---|
72 | 70 years after the invention, 46 after the discovery of the ne, 22 after |
---|
73 | the discovery of the third and so far last nt species, <b>is and will still |
---|
74 | long be</b> <b>revealing to us fundamental and unique information </b>on |
---|
75 | the basic nature and texture of fundamental matter. |
---|
76 | <p>Recent experiments have established transitions in flight of one <font color="#FF0000">n</font> |
---|
77 | into another, very likely to be oscillations over two independent long |
---|
78 | baselines (LBL), Thus <font color="#FF0000">n</font> do have non zero mixing |
---|
79 | rates and non zero masses. The exceptional smallness of the masses points |
---|
80 | to the existence of new fundamental physics occurring at a very high-energy |
---|
81 | scale, providing indeed the first experimental opportunity to explore it. |
---|
82 | The pattern of large mixings is likely to carry the imprint of this new |
---|
83 | specific physics mechanism and, even more importantly, points to the possibility |
---|
84 | of a large leptonic CP violation phase. If true, that may be a key ingredient |
---|
85 | in the understanding of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe |
---|
86 | (including the existence of our own physical bodies!), rooting it in a |
---|
87 | fundamental asymmetry of the mechanism of primordial lepto-genesis by decay |
---|
88 | of very heavy neutrinos. |
---|
89 | <p>This opens a field of research which will last several decades, perform |
---|
90 | the complete mapping of the patterns of masses and mixings and culminate |
---|
91 | with the discovery of leptonic CP violation. Long baselines impose |
---|
92 | very high power, as constraints on the physics at the new scale will come |
---|
93 | only from good statistics precision measurements. <b>These studies will |
---|
94 | thus require an important investment in accelerator-based neutrino beams |
---|
95 | and experiments</b>, improving significantly the present facilities and/or |
---|
96 | developing new ones. <i>Proposed underground neutrino detector locations, |
---|
97 | both existing and new, will also need careful scrutiny.</i> |
---|
98 | <p>The present European program (CNGS) is expected to produce decisive |
---|
99 | evidence of nutau appearance. It can greatly benefit from R&D towards |
---|
100 | improved performance. In addition. by the time of his operation, we must |
---|
101 | have a clear view of the nature, characteristics and logistics of the investments |
---|
102 | necessary for a further major upgrade of our discovery potential in this |
---|
103 | sector. We plan to channel |
---|
104 | <br>all our efforts towards the <b>global strategic objective </b>of submitting, |
---|
105 | to the European funding agencies and laboratory director, <b>a |
---|
106 | complete Conceptual Design Report (CDR ) of an upgraded and/or new |
---|
107 | European neutrino facility by 2008</b>, that appears the earliest conceivable |
---|
108 | date for new significant investments in an European particle physics program. |
---|
109 | <p>This Networking Activity on neutrino beams, together with the Design |
---|
110 | Study that we will soon be also proposing, aims at making such a CDRpossible.<b> |
---|
111 | We plan to investigate coherently</b> the requirements posed on accelerators |
---|
112 | by this long term program of experimental LBLneutrino physics, defining |
---|
113 | and preparing the R&D necessary for <b>the few main options </b>of |
---|
114 | future n beams of unprecedented intensity. Our preliminary road map |
---|
115 | can be so outlined. The <b>Neutrino Factory</b> (NuFact), novel multi-accelerator |
---|
116 | complex whose final stage is a high energy <font color="#FF0000">m </font> |
---|
117 | storage & decay ring, <b>promises the ultimate tool </b>for precise |
---|
118 | study of<font color="#FF0000"> nm & ne </font> properties. |
---|
119 | Its superior reach largely stems from the unprecedented possibilty of accelerating |
---|
120 | and storing the neutrino parents. Its high power p-driver alone will already |
---|
121 | offer, however, <b>early on the way, the intermediate physics reach of |
---|
122 | a SuperBeam, </b>a superior <font color="#FF0000">nm</font> beam still |
---|
123 | based on a conventional p decay tunel (as well as of an unprecedented |
---|
124 | facility for fundamental experiments with slow <font color="#FF0000">m |
---|
125 | </font>). <b>Later,</b> the road <b>may </b>well include a<b> branch </b>leading |
---|
126 | <b>to the unique complentary physics reach of the BetaBeam, </b>pure <font color="#FF0000">ne </font> |
---|
127 | beam from a high energy b-active ion storage & decay ring, recently |
---|
128 | proposed at CERN based on part of its existing accelerator complex. |
---|
129 | <p>Some of the techniques involved in producing such proton, pion, muon |
---|
130 | and radioactive ion beams are used at present while some are still at the |
---|
131 | conceptual stage. Problems related to delivering and sustaining high power, |
---|
132 | collect efficiently pions, muons or ions in very severe environment, reduce |
---|
133 | their phase space, accelerate and store them will have to be tackled. |
---|
134 | <i>To this end, we propose </i> |
---|
135 | <p><i>q a systematic investigation of the various accelerator |
---|
136 | options mentioned above, </i> |
---|
137 | <br><i>q a study of their technical limitations and </i> |
---|
138 | <br><i>q a study of their comparative merit and physics |
---|
139 | reach. </i> |
---|
140 | <p>This will be necessary in all the sectors of our effort, where often |
---|
141 | equally promising but different solutions are being pursued. Most |
---|
142 | striking example, perhaps, are the approaches to the problem |
---|
143 | <br>of the large emittance of the muons emerging from the first stages |
---|
144 | ("front end") of a NuFact. European and American preliminary baseline designs |
---|
145 | both thrive on ionization cooling (though with two significantly |
---|
146 | different schemes, 88 and 200 MHz respectively), while the Japanese scheme |
---|
147 | relies on little or no cooling, by means of a cascade of very large |
---|
148 | aperture (Fixed Field Alternated Gradient) accelerators. |
---|
149 | <p><i>The possibility to upgrade the present accelerators as well as the |
---|
150 | development of new facilities will be studied, the critical issues will |
---|
151 | be identified and attempt to propose solutions which can be supported by |
---|
152 | accelerator R&D will be made</i>.<b> Integrating all the proposed studies, |
---|
153 | we aim at developping</b>, from the present basic conceptual road map, |
---|
154 | <b>a true road-map of technical milestones for the realization of a new |
---|
155 | powerful evolutive European neutrino facility. </b> |
---|
156 | <p><i>Such a coherent and coordinated European program on neutrino beams |
---|
157 | will involve the large majority of the European experts in this field and |
---|
158 | will allow Europe to play a world leader role. It will enhance considerably |
---|
159 | the collaboration between accelerator physicists on the one hand and will |
---|
160 | develop a synergy between particle physicists and accelerator physicists |
---|
161 | on the other, ensuring the long-term sustainability of the field.</i> |
---|
162 | <p>Very limited resources are presently available in Europe for accelerator |
---|
163 | neutrino physics. The LHC crisis appears to inevitably imply reduced support |
---|
164 | from the European agencies, even to the approved CNGS program. <b>Decisive |
---|
165 | added value would result, from </b>the <b>EC support </b>that we |
---|
166 | are requesting here, <b>to the strategic goal of producing a timely European |
---|

169 | Among those, HIPPI, proposed within this I, and MICE, entering soon |

1021 | <br> -the organization of general meetings, workshops or specialized |

---|
1047 | <br>Meetings will be held regularly (about once every 2 months) to discuss |
---|
1048 | progresses, and a general workshop once a year is foreseen. Proceedings |
---|
1049 | will be published describing the results obtained and the strategy to further |
---|
1050 | develop the R&D topics. The broadening of expertise within the network |
---|
1051 | will allow a better definition of technological developments to be undergone. |
---|
1052 | The creation and maintenance of a website will facilitate the sharing of |
---|
1053 | information. |
---|
1054 | <br>Another important topic of the meetings and workshops will be a prospective |
---|
1055 | to further extend the possible applications of such high intensity proton |
---|
1056 | drivers in other physics domains and for practical applications. This would |
---|
1057 | be an extra bonus to the R&D pursued within the HIPPI JRP. In addition, |
---|
1058 | the regular publication of reports is a quality insurance of the JRPs. |
---|
1059 | <br><b>TARGET </b>The main oustanding expected deliverable is a consensus |
---|
1060 | on the best way forward for the successful construction of targets for |
---|
1061 | a European Neutrino Factory. Individual deliverables are expected to be |
---|
1062 | 1) a comprehensive summary report, reviewing the present status 2) solidly |
---|
1063 | rooted links with the presently loosely tied existing world wide expertise |
---|
1064 | 3) establishment in Europe of the best possible up-to-date and durable |
---|
1065 | knowledge base of world wide activities in target development 4) careful |
---|
1066 | & structured dissemination of information and progress 4) detailed |
---|
1067 | investigation and documentation of the possible solutions of the limitations |
---|
1068 | of each of the technological options 5) expression of interest and proposals |
---|
1069 | of detailed and realistic R&D projects capable to prove the solutions |
---|
1070 | <br><b>COLLECTOR</b> The main expected deliverable is a comprehensive final |
---|
1071 | report on horn designs, proposing multiple specific solutions respectivelly |
---|
1072 | adequate to performance and lifetime requirements in a classical beam, |
---|
1073 | a superbeam and ultimately in a neutrino factories.This will be based on |
---|
1074 | detailed thermo-mechanical simulations, complete technical specification |
---|
1075 | of electric supply and discharge equipment and state-of -the art knowledge |
---|
1076 | of mechanical properties of alloys under high rate neutron irradiation. |
---|
1077 | It will include specific solutions to the choices ( of material for the |

---|
1083 | <br><b>COOLING </b>Main deliverables are 0) Formation of a European muon |
---|
1084 | front end network , with consolidated link with US and Japan 1) Determination |
---|
1085 | of the performance of the European design incorporating realistic |
---|
1086 | fields and real engineerization. 2) Simulation of cooling free front |
---|
1087 | ends in comparison with our baseline; quantitative appraisal |
---|
1088 | of the indispensability of cooling 3) Simulation of front ends based |
---|
1089 | on cooling rings 4)Assessment of the technologies required by <i>1)2) & |
---|
1090 | 3)</i> and of their feasibility 5) Proposal of a coherent R&D |
---|
1091 | program as a result of this assessment 6) Determination of the resolution |
---|
1092 | of MICE (in the measurement of emittance and emittance reduction) and of |
---|
1093 | its potential beyond its baseline measurements plans |
---|
1094 | <br><b>BETABEAM</b> |
---|
1095 | <br>We aims at a team including RAL, TSL in Uppsala, GSI, GANIL, INFN Legnaro |
---|
1096 | associating TRIUMF and FermiLab. Its expected deliverables in the first |
---|
1097 | 18 months are |
---|
1098 | <br>1) Meeting at GSI in September 2003: Follow up of Moriond in March |
---|
1099 | and discussions on possible synergy with the future GSI design study.2) |
---|
1100 | International workshop on a beta-beam facility in June 2004 3) Theoretical |
---|
1101 | study and appraisal of experimental tests of longitudinal stacking scheme |
---|
1102 | for the decay ring (in the CERN PS) 4) Computer simulation and theoretical |
---|
1103 | study of losses in the decay ring 5) Proposal for targets to be tested |
---|
1104 | for the production of suitable beta-beam isotopes 6) Study of cyclotron |
---|
1105 | injection into a storage ring using a charge injection scheme (TSL and |
---|
1106 | Triumf) |
---|
1107 | <br>7) Study of dynamic aperture in the SPS (RAL) |
---|
1108 | <br>A comprehensive report, "Ideas for a beta-beam facility", would conclude |
---|
1109 | the first 18 months Further meetings would be held at least once |
---|
1110 | a year but it will depend on a possible design study. Reports will be delivered |
---|
1111 | as conference papers and as CERN reports. The next stage would be a conceptual |
---|
1112 | design report but the likely date for that would heavily depend on a possible |
---|
1113 | design study. |
---|
1114 | <br>Only fresh resources, presently unavailable, would evidently permit |
---|
1115 | us to address a larger number of issues such as: lattice for decay ring |
---|
1116 | and storage ring, optics for transfer lines and injection line, full simulation |
---|
1117 | of stacking scheme, full simulation of losses, test of injection schemes |
---|
1118 | (both storage ring and decayring), construction and test of prototype target |
---|
1119 | at ISOLDE and test of targets at TRIUMF with a high intensity proton. |

1652 | performed several weeks ago and is reproposed here as such for now. |

---|
1654 | of the Weeks, at 1000 € each, 60 to 80 K€ per year are |
---|
1655 | needed |
---|
1656 | <p>2) 20 to 40 researchers would be supported to travel to the NuFact Workshop |
---|
1657 | (faculty and postdocs) and/or the NuFact School (postdocs |
---|
1658 | <br>and students). About 40 to 80 K€ per year will be needed |

1659 | <p>3) additional funds will be needed to cover expenses of invited speakers |

1660 | to the Weeks |
---|
1661 | <p>4) additional funds will be needed to support participation to dedicated |

1662 | workshops. |

1663 | <p>A request of 800 to 1000 K€ over 4 years emerged at the time, to |
---|
1664 | be soon seriously revised. |
---|
1665 | <p>The Guide for proposers implies that the main cost is to be requested |
---|
1666 | for the organization of meetings, travel and subsistence expenses. In some |
---|
1667 | special case, the cost of for hiring a postdocs or a student can be supported |
---|
1668 | provided his task is a service task (such as maintenance and exportability |
---|
1669 | of code, database
). EU funding can cover up to 100% of the real costs |
---|
1670 | of the networking activities. No explicit limit is indicated, however it |
---|
1671 | seems that total amounts largely exceeding 1 Meuros for each NA over the |
---|
1672 | entire IA period (i.e. 5 years) will be difficult to obtain. |
