  1. Fermilab Strategy Pier Oddone P5 Meeting on Tevatron 2009 Running June 9, 2007

  2. Programs • The Energy Frontier • Tevatron, LHC • ILC • The neutrino frontier • Minos, MiniBooNe, SciBooNe • NOvA, Minerva • Particle Astrophysics • SDSS, Pierre Auger, CDMS II • DES, CDMS-25kg, SNAP

  3. P5 Recommendations • Highest priorities LHC and ILC • Most of the available resources 60% to ILC R&D • Maintain breadth of the field with other 40% • In FY08 run PEP II and Tevatron,and start: • Dark Energy Survey (DES) • Cold Dark Matter Search Super CDMS-25kg • NOvA long base line neutrino program • Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment • For the longer term, prepare SNAP and LSST THIS IS A VERY POWERFUL AND EXCITING PROGRAM.

  4. From another angle: timeline • Foundation: must deliver on investments • Tevatron • Neutrino program • Must turn on the LHC and CMS • Must develop the ILC for the long term future • Must have an intermediate program

  5. The most important source of physics • Tevatron is the most important source of discovery through 2009 and possibly longer • Consequently gets the highest priority: • attention to implementing machine upgrades and increased reliability • attention to detector operations and physics analysis during decline of available personnel

  6. Plans at Fermilab • Maintain operational strength in the accelerator arena; recall experts as needed should problems arise • Maintain and slightly increase Computing Division support; continue to develop common solutions for D0 and CDF • Maintain as much as possible the support through Particle Physics Division aiming at stabilizing the support at current levels

  7. Plans of the collaborations • Extremely detailed plans by CDF and D0 with MOUs with collaborating institutions • Experience with past projections have been good • Running through 2009 is doable given present projections -- but extremely tight • Further running beyond 2009 has not been analyzed. It will depend where things stand a year from now as DOE makes 2010 plans.

  8. Conclusion • We would like a positive recommendation from P5 on running through 2009 • We need analysis in the next year on what conditions would lead to running in 2010. After a year: • We will know if there are any hints • We will know more (but not enough!) about the LHC
