  1. Programmatic Space Needs and Strategy at SLAC Keith Hodgson SLAC Deputy Director Director, Photon Sciences Directorate

  2. SLAC Programmatic Space Needs • Photon Science (PS) anticipates significant growth by FY2010 • LCLS transitions to operational mode • SSRL (SPEAR3) expands beam lines and instruments • Number of PS users increases • Particle and Particle Astrophysics (PPA) is expected to remain relatively constant in size except for possibility of growth with ILC R&D • Staff associated with Linac opns move to PS • Operations Directorate also relatively constant • Staff supporting Linac opns will support LCLS and continue to support site-wide infrastructure

  3. PS Programmatic Space Needs • PS Directorate is anticipating significant growth over coming 5 years • LCLS moves from construction to commissioning to operations - staff increases in experimental operations areas and user activities will be most significant drivers • LUSI (LCLS instrument MIE) staffing will roll off into LCLS experimental operations • SSRL Program will increase staffing • Staff increase for effective operations of SPEAR3 and scientific/user support • Growth in new beam lines and associated staff • PULSE (ultrafast science center) and XLAM (advanced materials center) are both anticipated to grow. Two additional centers (biocomplexity and energy/ environment) are also possible in the future • Initiative joint with PPA in accelerator science

  4. PS - LCLS Program Space Needs • LCLS • LCLS Linac operations staff space needs essentially covered by existing space • Are some issues with longer term habitability of space (including trailers) and this needs to be recognized and mitigated (will be addressed in second phase of space planning process) • LCLS experimental operations and user program • LCLS Commissioning completed by 4/1/09 operations • Project initial staffing (scientists, beam line engineers, technical, admin, facilities) of ~100 people • Project initial postdocs/users/longer term visitors of ~70 people • One focus of the near term plan being presented today

  5. PS - SSRL Space Needs • SSRL – is expected to receive ~40% budget increase in FY07 opns funding for effective operation of SPEAR3. Also anticipate growth in numbers of beam lines and supporting staff. Leads to projected growth of ~45 people (15%) by FY2009 • SSRL currently has about 265 staff, long term visitors and postdocs/students. About 35% of these are housed in trailers of which 4 (12 offices) have to be decommissioned for safety reasons • Plan near term for housing displaced and additional staff as for offices is Bldg. 28 • Anticipate need for additional graduate student/postdoc and laboratory/ setup/R&D space to support new developments and user program • Space issues exacerbated by loss of space on experimental floor as new beam lines occupy areas (between bldgs. 120 and 131 and in 130) used now for setup • SSRL user administration and support area is too small and cannot accommodate anticipated expansion due to LCLS (which will be integrated into one centrally managed user program) • Areas for computer networking, data storage and local servers are also at capacity • Focus of second phase of space plan

  6. PS - PULSE - Program Space Needs • PULSE is the new Center for ultrafast science (reporting jointly to SLAC and Stanford) directed by Phil Bucksbaum. Its “home” was to be the CLOC building. • Six faculty groups and supporting staff of postdocs and students of ~65 by FY2008 • Co-location is highly desirable • Fully functional PULSE will significantly accelerate the delivery of scientific results from the initial LCLS experiments • Requires laboratory clusters - lasers (5) and handling of biological materials (1) • One focus of the near-term plan being presented today

  7. PS - XLAM - Program Space Needs • XLAM is the new Center for advanced materials research (reporting jointly to SLAC and Stanford) directed by Z.X. Shen. Its “home” is a planned new building • XLAM anticipates growth to a total of 8-10 core faculty and research groups by FY2009 • Existing groups (5) are very dispersed – space among several buildings on campus and at SLAC • No available laboratory space at SLAC for new hires • Focus of discussions with Stanford for 3rd party financing of building (~50K gsf) to house XLAM on the SLAC campus and will be further considered in second phase of space plan

  8. PPA Programmatic Space Needs • Current scientific staff in EPP and KIPAC stable • Over next 5 years, anticipate evolution from old to new programs • BaBar  ATLAS, LCD, LSST, SNAP • Do not anticipate significant growth in headcount • Technical staff will be redirected as appropriate to future programs • B-Factory, GLAST technical staff  LCLS, LSST, LCD, EXO

  9. PPA Programmatic Space Needs • Depending on portfolio of projects going forward, staffing and staging space for projects may be needed • Crane covered space for construction of large detector elements exists at the lab and is assigned as needed to projects • Examples: CEH pit, Bldg 33 clean room facility, PEP-II IR halls

  10. PPA Programmatic Space Needs • Future needs for ILC • If ILC becomes a reality with significant SLAC participation, the ILC staff will grow significantly • Appropriate office space for this expansion does not exist on the site • New space would have to be build to accommodate the staff growth • Space for hardware development does exist (ESA, ESB)

  11. PPA Programmatic Space Needs • Future needs for accelerator research (joint initiative in future with PS) • Anticipate that accelerator research on the site will grow in the ‘LCLS era’ by ~20% • Space for additional staff will be available in building 280, co-located with other accelerator physics activities, as LCLS project winds down • Considering establishing a SLAC Center for Accelerator Science - Bldg 280 not ideal as permanent home

  12. PPA Program Space Needs • User Space --- ROB • Currently provide office space for ~140 PPA users who are essentially full-time on site, most associated with BaBar • Another 80-100 spend 30-50% of their time here, with as many as ~300 users with significant on site presence or at peak demand times • Anticipate continuing demand for user support at roughly this level • BABAR (ramping slowly down starting in 2010) • Atlas (ramping up starting in 2008) to 2013 and beyond • Additional pressure for GLAST and LSST users • Office space in ROB subscribed well into next decade

  13. Strategic Approach - I • Begin Detailed Space Planning Strategy in early September - Jonathan Dorfan charges Space Working Group chaired by P. Drell and K. Hodgson • Director's column in 'SLAC Today' on ownership of space at SLAC

  14. Strategic Approach - II • Work and Strategy guided by Space Working Group and its two subcommittees • Improve utilization of existing space - work with the University Dept. of Capital Planning to generate a site space plan • Survey all space for current function (in process) and determine “quality factor” • Goal is report by end of FY2007 • Address near term (LCLS-driven needs) using re-programmed space in existing buildings (next talk by Steve Williams) • Seek funding (DOE and 3rd party) to develop new space – working closely with Stanford in new “East Campus” area

  15. Recent 3rd party funded buildings Funding: Fred Kavli 25,000 sq. ft. ~$11M Occupied in 2006 Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Cosmology SLAC Guest House Funding: Stanford University 112 rooms(35,000 sq. ft.), $10.5M, occupied 2003

  16. Concept for New East Campus Being developed in cooperation with Stanford Architect and Planning Office

  17. Planned Buildings in First Phase of East SLAC Campus Area • Photon Science Building (formally the CLOC) • ~30-50,000 sq ft • Includes laboratory, office and supporting space for LCLS experimental program and for PULSE and expansion space for future initiatives • X-Ray Laboratory for Advanced Materials Science (XLAM) • ~30-50,000 sq ft • Center for Scientific Computing (joint initiative with Stanford) • 2 buildings of ~30,000 sq. ft. each

  18. Summary • SLAC has a strong, discovery-oriented science agenda in Photon Science and in Particle and Particle Astrophysics • LCLS will bring an additional accelerator and user operation to PS in FY2009 • Availability of lab and office space is potentially limiting to growth and hence scientific impact • The space plan and strategy, of which the near term is being presented here, is essential to recognize the long term potential • Work remains on other aspects of SLAC space plan
