From Here to Construction

1. From Here to Construction Michael Hebert UC Irvine March 9, 2004 NSF RSVP Review

2. Outline • The Importance of, Status of, and Plans for the Magnet Acquisition • A Review of each Level 2 WBS task examining readiness, resource needs, and schedule to get from here to construction • Summary of the proposal budget, schedule of events that carries us to a construction start Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

3. Opening Comments • We are proposing to continue the design phase of the magnet system in this grant period, including funding four months of the estimated one year magnet engineering design. We don’t believe we can wait for MRE-FC funding for the engineering design effort. This allows us to maintain the momentum on the critical path system. The alternative could mean more than a year’s delay in completing the project. • We have not requested support for every task that we could start now due to the limited availability of funding • We will make major progress on every subsystem, in addition to the magnets; in particular we will greatly increase the engineering effort going into MECO Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

7. Magnet Progress • As a reminder • Conceptual Design completed on FY01 funds, very favorably reviewed • Commercial procurement endorsed by Magnet Acquisition Panel • Three “Industrialization” Studies completed using FY02 funds • Insulation system for the coils and joints – recommended epoxy and other material choices for radiation hard fabrication • Winding, impregnation logistics, fabrication cost and schedule – concluded that the magnets can be built commercially within the nominal 41 month schedule for a price consistent with our expectations • Refrigerator/liquefier— refurbish or buy new recommendation • Procurement activities (more details in a moment) • Magnet Acquisition Plan drafted • Magnet Statement of Work and Technical Specification-incorporating BNL and LLNL comments • RFP being drafted • First meeting with potential vendors held at MT18 Conference in October Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

8. Magnet Progress • Field error analyses and other studies also supported by FY03 funds • Updated structural models of PS, TS and DS magnets from CDR to evaluate effects of modulus and coefficient of thermal contraction variations and deadweight effects. • New PS iron return yoke and pole piece • Revised PS coil builds • DS includes new iron pole piece • TS Stiffer and wider cryostat pedestals • Relocated horizontal support in downstream TS to accommodate DS pole • TS Cryostat shell modeling Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

9. Magnet Progress TS • Created mandrel and mandrel assembly drawings with tolerances and verified manufacturability with commercial fabrication shops • Preliminary conclusions • Field errors due to manufacturing tolerances and material property variations appear manageable in PS and DS; TS analysis underway • DS field errors are driven by the mandrel and assembly tolerances. Field analysis is underway by UCI. • PS field errors are driven by the mandrel and assembly tolerances but the field spec in the PS region is forgiving. • TS structural model is most complicated. Awaiting updated results. • Final results will be reflected in the final RFP documents PS DS Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

12. Draft Magnet Acquisition Schedule This list assumes an uninterrupted flow of funds, i.e. an FY05 MREFC start or continuing R&D support for the engineering design in `05 Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

13. Baseline Information Today • MECO WBS – exists, but needs extensive revision. This is job one. • Reference Design Documents– listing design and interface parameters exist for some systems. Will need initial versions for the remaining major systems as part of completing 1 above. • WBS Dictionary– again exists, but must be revised in conjunction with 1. • Cost Database– system, including risk assessment handling, is loaded with the preceding info as of Jan 2003. As 1 – 3 above evolve, we will incorporate the changes. • Cost Book– exists, but is sparsely populated with solid backup material. • Subsystem schedules– exist in detail for the magnets and for the proton beamline work. Schedules for all other subsystems exist, but in coarser grain. • Technical Design Report– exists only in draft form, but has not been updated since June 2001. Details needed for engineering efforts have instead been captured in the Reference Design Documents mentioned above • Project Management Plan–exists but will require revision Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

14. Near Term Milestones Preparation for a baseline review in July Note that new hires under this proposal are not going to be on board soon enough to contribute much to the baselining effort Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

15.

WBS 1.1 – AGS Modifications, Studies • Current Status • No beam studies since 1998 nor hardware design efforts • Hardware consists of a new AC dipole similar to an existing magnet and new pulser and power supply for the existing stripline kicker, requirements based on existing studies info • New concerns about ALARA limits, available running time, and aperture limits • Resources Needed to Baseline - $0 • Extensive beam studies will be required to achieve MECO running conditions. Nonetheless we have omitted this from the proposal to direct funds elsewhere. Our plan is conduct these studies with MREFC funds. • AGS RF experts are needed to spec the hardware, although their time is often saturated solving RHIC problems Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

19. WBS 1.1 – AGS Modifications, Studies • Preparation for efficient use of MREFC funds - $151k • Design of AC dipole, new pulsers for AGS Kicker – allow for construction and installation in `06 allowing for extinction measurement in `06/7 run This is a Final Design Review, i.e. we are ready to cut metal on the AC Dipole and procure of pulsers and power supplies for the Kicker in October `04 Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

With that in hand we do not need greater detail before MREFC start Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

25. WBS 1.5 – Muon Beamline Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

26. WBS 1.6 – Tracker • Current Status • Two tracker geometry options remain under consideration • “Longitudinal” geometry with ~3000 3m long straws oriented nearly coaxial with the DS and ~23000 capacitively coupled cathode strips for axial coordinate measurement • “Transverse” geometry with ~13000 1m straws, oriented transverse to the axis of the DS, readout at both ends • Two readout options under consideration as well • Digitizing inside the DS cryostat or passing analog signals out and digitizing remotely Longitudinal Tracker Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

27. Tracker R&D • Studies provide input to select geometry and readout architecture • Full-length longitudinal vane prototype remains a work in progress at Houston as mechanical stability and straw bonding issues are resolved • Electronics design and prototype work at Houston has progressed to testing prototype preamplifier, digitizer, and controller boards as a system using the current (outdated) version of BaBar’s Elefant chip with very promising results • Simulations of both the longitudinal and transverse geometries continue, indications are that either geometry might work from a physics standpoint Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

WBS 1.7 – Calorimeter • Current Status • Bench tests of PbWO4 crystals cooled to –23 °C and large area avalanche photodiodes continue at NYU using electronics designed and built in house • Indications are that this material will meet MECO resolution requirements, demonstrating 20-30 photo e-/MeV (as compared with CMS’ 5 pe/MeV) • We need to verify the system performance via beam tests of an 88 crystal array • If true we can sharply reduce the contingency on the Calorimeter that covered the possibility of using BGO crystals • Further it appears that we can make use of fewer (larger) crystals allowing reductions in APD, and associated HV and readout channel counts (1152 crystals vs. 2000 originally) Estimated Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

31. WBS 1.7 – Calorimeter • Resources required to baseline this effort - $0 • We know enough to baseline this system now • Preparation for efficient use of MREFC funds - $421k • Funds for construction of an 8 x 8 prototype crystal array including photodetectors, cooling, calibration, readout electronics, vacuum system and test vessel • Funds for beam testing • Contribution of the Chief Electrical Engineer (funded in WBS 1.11) to the design of readout and trigger electronics • In addition to verifying the primary approach with an appropriate scale prototype, this advances the design effort and should allow for an early start to anticipated lengthy crystal and APD procurement phases Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

32. WBS 1.7 – Calorimeter Crystal Material Selected Calorimeter Conceptual Design Review in June `05 Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

33.

37. WBS 1.10 – Infrastructure Reminder that Infrastructure for MECO presently refers to the counting house, electronics hut, and compressor building for the refrigerator / liquefier • Current Status • Existing structures have been identified to serve as counting house and compressor building, although they will require some clean out and may require refurbishment of power and other services • Electronics enclosure must be constructed, but is small and simple • Resources required to baseline this effort - $0 • The construction cost and schedule estimation effort on the part of the AGS liaison engineer is supported under WBS 1.11 • Required design input information is funded under WBS 1.4 – 1.7 • Preparation for efficient use of MREFC funds - $0 • This task is not on the critical path, nor are detailed designs required to make efficient use of MREFC funding in the first year, thus once we have the information required for baselining, we will be set until the project starts. Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

38. WBS 1.11 – Management • Current Status • Full time PM on board • No other project office personnel • Project documentation described earlier • Resources required to baseline this effort - $300k • Ongoing PM support • Support for AGS Liaison staff • Preparation for efficient use of MREFC funds - $446k • Chief Mechanical Engineer – This hire is needed for integration as we approach construction and to contribute to the pool of engineering talent designing MECO • Chief Electrical Engineer – the same statement applies here • Cost and Schedule Manager – The PM cannot continue in this role as we gear up for construction, so this individual should be on board well before the start of MREFC funding to setup shop and establish procedures Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction

39. WBS 1.10 & 1.11 – Schedules Updating the information needed for baselining is straightforward. Detailed designs await MREFC funds as this is not a place that we need to spend money early. These time estimates could prove optimistic Michael Hebert, UC Irvine From Here to Construction
