Illinois Accelerator Research Center (IARC)

1. Illinois Accelerator Research Center (IARC) IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

2. New Building Status • A new building will be constructed near CDF. The Office Technical & Education (OTE) building is part of the larger Illinois Accelerator Research Center • OTE is Fully funded at $ 20 M by a grant from the Illinois Dept of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) • Yes, we have the cash ! • DOE’s contribution is the site preparation, the refurbished CDF assembly building, and funds to outfit the completed IARC complex • The contract is awarded and ground breaking for DOE funded site preparation has started. (IASU GPP Project) • Hence this talk. IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

3. New Building Status • OTE building conceptual design is complete • The engineering design is advanced • Schedule: • Site preparation = Now through this summer • Building out for bids in July, Construction start in Nov 2011 • Beneficial occupancy in summer 2013 • Refurbished CDF heavy assembly building in ~ 2014 • IARC funded by DCEO as a means for the lab to encourage new high tech industries in Illinois • IARC “Program” is under development IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

4. IARC Mission Statement • Work with Industry, University, and Laboratory partners to promote the development of accelerator technology, projects, and applications • Promote the growth of high tech industry based on accelerator technology leading to new products and capabilities • Work with University partners to create an educational center for accelerator science and technology IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

5. The Opportunity • Opportunity to put substance behind the claim that HEP is the developer/steward of accelerator technology within the Office of Science • Opportunity to function as a center for accelerator based projects ( e.g. Project X, or other non-HEP Projects in the Office of Science, e.g. NGLS) • Opportunity for Fermilab to become a National center for accelerator education • Opportunity to establish additional funding sources outside OHEP or with industry develop IP • Opportunity to develop technologies that benefit society bringing recognition to HEP and FNAL IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

6. Why do this at Fermilab? • Fermilab has: • core capabilities and world class scientific and engineering staff that have the potential to make an impact beyond the field of high-energy physics. • infrastructure capabilities that are unique, and that could potentially be used in applications beyond the field of high-energy physics.

7. IARC Business Model (Gaps) • New ideas in accelerator technology seem to die for three reasons • Inadequate resources (financial or personnel) in industry, universities, or labs to demonstrate feasibility of an idea • During the transition from small scale technology demonstration to a commercial product • Lack of acceptance of the new technology by potential customers (ignorance or prejudice) that is cured only by large scale demonstrations • IARC can help fill these gaps IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

8. IARC Business Model (Gaps) • The number of accelerators in use in the U.S. economy is growing dramatically but the U.S. is not providing formal training for many students in accelerator science and technology • IARC can be a center for a university-lab-DOE partnership to train Scientists, engineer, and technicians in Accelerator Science and Technology IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

9. IARC Business Model: Funding Sources • DOE HEP (dedicated B&R for Accel stewardship ?) • DOE Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) • University of Chicago (FRA) • DOE Office of Science (non-HEP) • Illinois Dept of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO ) and ISTC • LDRD at ANL or FNAL? • DOE Advanced Research Project Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) • Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) • Department of Homeland Security (DHS) • Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or IEPA) • Industry & venture capital • Dept of commerce?

10. Motivation for Industrial Participation in IARC • Businesses are motivated by the potential for profit… so the business model must make financial sense • Industry wants: • Technical support • Infrastructure and space • Financial support • Creation/protection of intellectual property and new commercial products and a transparent process • The don’t want: unpredictable processes and excessive red tape • Challenge will be to establish a “program” that works on a DOE lab site IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

12. New Office Technical & Education Building • 23,000 SF of New Office Space • 145 new offices (+ 40 in the refurbished CDF) • 3,900 SF New Lecture Hall • 900 SF Executive Meeting Room • 3,700 SF Light Tech Space • New Coffee/Lunch Area • New 55-car parking lot • Interior connection to CDF bldg IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

13. Lecture Hall 175 person capacity IARC RDK All experimenters mtg Sloped/Tiered Seating Fixed desks with power and wireless Infrastructure for state of art AV – 3 screens, 5 projector locations

14. 2-Story Lunch Room Seating for 90 on 2 levels Outdoor Dining area Cold food service IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

15. Industrial Area Site Upgrades • New 195-car parking lot between IB1 and CHL • Utilities replacement along D Road • Phase 1 north of D Road • Phase 2 south of D Road • D Road realignment north of CDF • 3 new crosswalks along D Road between Industrial complex and CDF • New sidewalks between Industrial Complex & IARC.

17. What to Expect from Construction Activities: • No admittance to construction areas w/o PPE & OK from Fermi Construction Coordinator. • Access to Industrial complex & CDF will be maintained at all times • However some alternate routes will be required. • Access to CDF west side entrance will be by special arrangements only. • Utility shut downs are designed to be minimal. • Portions of D Road closed to thru-traffic<30 days • Bike/Pedestrian detours will be required.

18. Conclusion • IARC is new territory for Fermilab • A challenge to craft a successful program • Even without a “formal” IARC program announcement there seems to be lots of interest in Industry • A great opportunity • State will pay for the first new large building constructed at Fermilab in ~ 20 yrs • Stay tuned IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

19. Why Pursue non-HEP Activities? Ideally, these non-HEP activities would have the following characteristics • Strong overlap with the laboratory’s core capabilities or core technologies, thus maintaining competency and strengthening skills important to the science & technology base of the lab • Establishes a connection between HEP research and societal benefits that FNAL, Office of Science and DOE can point to • Enhances the stature of the laboratory and its staff • Meets a National need, again allowing the connection to be made between HEP technology and national priorities • Increases interaction between the laboratory and industry to develop and transfer technology with the potential for commercialization • Leverages resources to produce high-tech jobs and industry in the area (Goal of DCEO in funding IARC) IARC RDK All experimenters mtg
