  1. Helmholtz Particle Physics Programme. Joachim Mnich R-ECFA Visit Germany Bonn, May 9, 2014

  2. Helmholtz Association • 18 large researchcentres in Germany • Structured in sixresearchfields • Aeronautics, Space and Transport • Earth and Environment • Energy • Health • Key Technologies • Structure of Matter ( Matter) Budget (2013): • 2.4 G€ institutionalfunding(90% federal, 10% local) • 1.2 G€ Third-party funding

  3. ParticlePhysics in Helmholtz • Restructuringofresearchfieldfornextfundingperiod(2015 -19) Structureof Matter4 programmes: • ParticlePhysics • AstroparticlePhysics • Hadronsand Nuclei • Photon, Nuclei, Ions Matter3 programmes: • Matter andUniverse • From Matter to Materials and Life • Matter and Technology(Accelerator, Detector, Computing) new • Helmholtz Centres in (astro)-particlephysics: • DESY • KIT (Helmholtz part:computingand astro-particlephysics) • GSI (ALICE & FAIR) • FZ Jülich (EDM experiment)

  4. HERA LHC ILC DESY Long-term Strategy in Particle Physics • Accelerators • Detectors • Physics + supportthrough strong theorygroup + computinginfrastructure + testbeam & otherinfrastructures • Useof DESY infrastructureforparticlephysics • e.g. Tier-2/NAF, testbeamfordetector R&D, ALPS II, … • Strategic roleof DESY as national laboratoryforparticlephysics

  5. DESY atthe LHC Exampleprotonstructure • HERAFittertoextractPDFs • Two large groups in ATLAS and CMS • morethan 60 scientists per group ~1/3 staff, ~1/3 postdocs, ~1/3 students + technical support • Building on large experienceandexpertisefrom HERA • physicsanalysis, detectoroperation, computing, upgrades, management … • Example: CMS phase 1 pixel upgrade • 4th layertogetherwith German CMS groups First full-size moduletested

  6. LHC Detector Upgrades • Future: Phase 2 upgrades • Proposalfor Helmholtz Strategic Large Investments DESY, KIT, GSI: 28 M€ Helmholtz partforATLAS & CMS trackerandALICE TPC (2018) • Close collaborationwith German & international partners • partof German conceptfor LHC upgrade presentedtofundingagencies • Crucialforfutureofparticlephysics in Helmholtz

  7. Computing • Helmholtz provides large shareof LHC computing in Germany • Tier-1 Centreat KIT (GridKa) for all experiments • Tier-2 centresat DESY (ATLAS, CMS, LHCb) and GSI (ALICE) • National Analysis Facility (NAF) at DESY • Facilitiesused also for non-LHC experiments • Future: • fundingproposalto Helmholtz tosecure Tier-1 and Helmholtz partof Tier-2 centres NAF

  8. International Linear Collider • DESY iskeytothedevelopmentof a superconducting linear collider • TESLA collaborationsince 1990ies • keycontributionstothe 2013 ILCTDR • constructionofthe European XFEL • Example: industrialcavityproduction • exceeds XFEL specs • averagegradientclosetoILC needs (31.5 MV/m) • plotbased on 90 cavities,now 250 aretested M. Harrison, Nov 2013

  9. ILC Detector & Physics • ILD andSiDdetectorconcepts • co-spokespersons in bothconceptsfrom DESY • Hadroncalorimeter • CALICE collaborationtoadvanceParticle Flow algorithms • TPC development • Integration laboratoryfordetector • engineeringexpertiseandsupport • EDMS fordetectorandaccelerator

  10. Belle (II) • Germany playsmajorrole in Belle II • 10 institutesrepresent 2nd largestcountry after Japan • deliverableis DEPFET vertexdetector in 2016 • DESY joined Belle II in 2011 • bringing in engineeringexpertise, e.g.heatmanagement • delicateinstallationinto Belle II (remote vacuumconnection) • DESY test Beam • fullvertexdetectorsystemtest in Jan 2014 • Computing • Tier-1 at KIT • Tier-2 & NAF at DESY

  11. ParticlePhysicsTheory in Helmholtz • Broadspectrum, firmlyconnectedtothe experimental programme • Closely integrated with local universities (Hamburg, Berlin, Karlsruhe) • Shapes theoretical particle physics in Germany & beyond Lectures, schools, conferences, workshops DESY fellowship programme (each year >300 applications from around the globe) Large fraction of theory staff in Germany have a DESY history

  12. DESY Testbeam • Increasingly important facility for detector R&D • approx. 400 users in 2013 Maintenance weeks

  13. Axion-LikeParticle Search • ALPS I experiment: • „light shiningthroughwall“ experiment • publishedresultsearly 2010 • to-date still bestlimit (fromthis type ofexperiment) • ALPS II • regenerationcavity • transitionedgesensor • 2 × 10 straightened(!) HERA dipoles • datatakingexpected in 2017

  14. EDM Project at FZ Jülich • Electric Dipole Moment (EDM) sensitive to CP-violation beyond SM • New approach: EDM ofchargedparticle • polarized (p,d) beam in storage ring • Sensitivitygoal 10-29 e cm • wrt. nEDM: < 10-26 e cm (goal 10-28 e cm) • Spin rotation due totorque in radial electricfield • COSY at Forschungszentrum Jülich • stagedapproach (duringnext 5 years) • precursorexperimentat COSY (goal10-24 e cm) • design ofdesignated EDM ring • EDM • Spin • EDM + + • T - - CPV

  15. AstroparticlePhysics in Helmholtz: KIT • AUGER: • KIT istheleadinginstitute in Germany • > 40 scientists & PhDstudents • strong role in detectorupgrades • KATRIN: • measure absolute neutrinomassscalewith a sensitivityof 0.2 eV • over 5 years (2016 - 21) successful bake-out ofspectrometer

  16. AstroparticlePhysics in Helmholtz: DESY Observation ofextraterrestialneutrinos • IceCube • DESY issecondlargestgroup in thecollaboration • Tier-1 datacentre • Upgrade plansforIceCube: • PINGU (neutrinomasshierachy) • multi-km3 neutrinotelescope, multi-km2 surfacedetector, … • CTA • mid-size telescopes • arraycontrol • MC production • … • Participationin HESS, MAGIC, Veritas Telescope prototype closeto Zeuthen

  17. Helmholtz Alliance „PhysicsattheTerascale“ • Network between Helmholtz centres, universitiesand Max-Planck institute • Generouslyfundedby Helmholtz • 25 M€ for 2007-12 and 1 M€ for 2013-14 • Alliance verysuccessfullycontributedtoshape German particlephysics • ≈1000 people, >150 events • numerouspositionscreated in thefield • Future • keepstructuresandmainelementsschoolsandworkshops • withsupportfrom DESY andUniversities • SimilarAlliancesexist in hadron & nucleiandastroparticlephysics • Common events?
