Accelerator Research and Development Planning at LARP Conference
Discussion at the LARP Conference included planning for continued research and development activities post HL-LHC, budget allocations, DOE recommendations, and implications of reduced funding. Strategies were explored for collaborations with CERN, project prioritization, and seeking advice for proposed projects. The event aimed to align LARP efforts with future goals and secure necessary resources for ongoing accelerator physics advancements.

LARP Continued LARP T. Markiewicz/SLAC G. Apollinari, E. Prebys/Fermilab CM28, Napa April 24th 26th, 2017
LARP Planning for a Continued LARP In the absence of specific guidance from DOE regarding LARP during and after HL-LHC- AUP: 1) Letter dated September 2015 sent to DOE alluding to an eventual budget ~3M$ supporting R&D and the Toohig Fellow Program 2) Day Satellite Workshop at LARP CM26 to discuss expressions of interest & later followed by 1-page proposals citing required resources 2 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017

LARP October 5, 2016 Letter from J. Siegrist with July 2016 DOE Review Recommendations 1) SC Magnets . 2) Crab Cavity Systems ... 3.) This office is of the opinion that instrumentation, controls and accelerator physics for Hi-Lumi LHC are a CERN responsibility. LARP needs to establish what LARP could accomplish in accelerator physics that CERN can t or will not do. A more strongly-coupled and transparent relationship with CERN to assure that both parties understand what will be possible under the proposed project funding profile must be established. For activities that appear promising but have been dropped they should be recommended to be funded by the GARD activity. 4.) This office plans to fund LARP beyond FY2018 in the range of $2 to $3 million, mainly in support of the Toohig Fellows. 4 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017
LARP Reduced Funding to the Office of Science in the President s FY18 Budget Budget Guidance for LARP in FY18 not yet given Second-hand statements attributed to OHEP: LARP completes when prototypes are delivered. The program will be ended and a new direction given in the next year or so. $2M-$3M might be a challenge in the present funding climate Magnet Development for HE-LHC will be transferred to NMDP Opportunity for input by DOE representatives here In the meantime, continue the exercise, knowing not all proposals can be funded, and seek advice and interest in proposed projects from CERN. 5 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017
LARP Solicitation of CERN Priorities Email sent March 13 requesting priority ranking from 1-12 Original thought: 3 classes of customer: Injectors (Malika Meddahi) HL-LHC (Oliver Bruning & Lucio Rossi) HE-LHC (Michael Benedikt) Outcome: One set of votes combining Injectors & HL-LHC WG leaders, usual stakeholders consulted An email with topics of interest to HE-LHC after discussion with HE-LHC and FCC working teams 6 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017
LARP CERN Prioritization (CM26 only, HL-LHC only) Priority 1 Proposal Hollow e Beam Collimation Labs FNAL DQW Crab Cavities BNL 3 LLRB E-lens Experiments at RHIC BNL LLRB Compensation Simulations FNAL LLRB Compensation Hardware FNAL Material Irradiation of Advanced Collimator Materials BNL Beam Profile Measurements using e- probes at IOTA or the MI FNAL 10 WBFS Experiments and Development SLAC Halo Monitor SLAC Beam Beam & Ecloud Simulation LBNL Beam Profile measurements using a gas jet at IOTA or the MI FNAL 12 LLRF Studies Cal Poly New accelerating cavity R&D BNL ??? HE LHC Lattice Studies (no input received) SLAC 7 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017
LARP Emails & Comments beyond the scorecard HE-LHC (Michael Benedikt) HE-LHC Lattice development is the top priority E-beams for halo control at the 8-10 priority scale Not in the CM26 list: Collimation system design. From collimation lattice design, via tracking and efficiency studies to material and collimator design. Any activity in these domains would be very beneficial for the studies and highly appreciated. Oliver Bruning: The HL-LHC has an interest in pursuing the development of a modulator for the hollow electron lenses for the HL-LHC . but the item was not yet in the list of future LARP activities. 8 T. Markiewicz | Continued LARP 4/26/2017
LARP Next Steps Really, open to discussion, now and in the future. Suggestion: Updating the list of items to be considered Are there others that have not been mentioned? Reprioritizing Continue the exercise by planning specific Continued LARP Toohig+AP program at (say) $2M, $3M and $4M/year Try to dovetail with FY18 plans Iterate with proponents Try to complete exercise by the time when FY18 funding distributed Adjust as guidance received from OHEP 9 T.
