  1. LCLS Instrument MIE Project: Staffing, Schedule John Arthur SLAC Photon Instrumentation for X-ray Experiments

  2. What is the Instrument MIE project • How will the project be organized

  3. Instruments • Ultrafast x-ray studies of laser-induced transient states of matter • Nano-particle and single-biomolecule (non-periodic) imaging • Nanoscale equilibrium dynamics in condensed matter • Soft x-ray imaging and dynamics

  4. Detector Development • LCLS experiments need new detector technology • Dual development strategy for fast 2-d detectors • Several technologies look promising, no clear leader • LCLS will pursue one strategy • MIE will try a different technology • Both prototypes should be ready by 2009

  5. LCLS Detector Advisory Committee • Held first meeting Feb 28 - March 1, 2005 • Reviewed proposals for 2-d detector development • Based on their review, MIE has decided to collaborate with BNL on 2-d detector R&D, leading to at least one prototype detector in 2008-9 • LDAC will continue to review MIE and LCLS detector R&D • LCLS will hire a detector scientist to manage the efforts

  6. Instrument MIE Phased Approach • First LCLS light may come in mid-2008 • Budget will not support building 4 instruments by 2008 • Phased approach • 2 instruments in phase 1 • sufficient functionality by mid-2008 to begin experiments • phase 1 instruments can support early work in all four areas • complete phase 1 while phase 2 is ramping up • remaining instruments in phase 2 • begin phase 2 after 2008 • complete all work in 2012

  7. An LCLS instrument costs $12-15M Controls (including laser timing)+Computers Slits Flight path Valves/windows/pumps KB focusing system (1 µm and sub-µm options) X-ray pulse split+delay with table Crystal monochromator with table Diffractometer with table Optical table for laser Laser PPS Laser system (10 mJ Ti:sapphire plus OPA) Laser diagnostics X-ray diagnostics 2d detector Typical LCLS “instrument” + PEOPLE

  8. LCLS in 2008-9 possible layout NEH Soft X-ray Station AMO Physics (funded by LCLS) Hard X-ray Imaging Station Coherent imaging (MIE) Hard X-ray Diffraction Station Pump-probe dynamics (MIE) Nanoscale dynamics (MIE) FEH

  9. LCLS in 2012 NEH Soft X-ray Station AMO Physics Magnetism, surfaces Hard X-ray Imaging Station Coherent imaging Hard X-ray Diffraction Station Pump-probe dynamics Hard X-ray Diffraction Station Nano-dynamics of solids Hard X-ray Station Extreme states of matter (assumes funding found) FEH

Dir for LCLS Science John Arthur Project Director TBD Project Chief Engineer Budget ES&H PMCS Database Purchasing Administration Inst #1 Instrument Scientist Engineering & Development 4-5 Engineers 2-3 Designers Inst #2 Instrument Scientist Inst #3 Instrument Scientist Inst #4 Instrument Scientist

  11. Role of the LCLS Science Teams • Teams are responsible for preparing physics specs for MIE instruments • Teams have designated leaders • Quarterly meetings at SLAC with leaders • Start weekly teleconferences soon • Yearly general meeting (Oct) • Web site is up

  12. Draft WBS to level 3 4 instruments OPC

  13. Draft WBS Instrument partial, to level 5 Major project function (design, fab) Instrument subsection (lasers, detectors) Major component (monochromator)

  14. Proposed funding profile $millions Good possibility of funding in 2006 Total = $50M-$60M

  15. Project Staffing • Now: 2 people • Proj. Director (J. Arthur), Proj. Chief Scientist (J. Hastings) • Next 6 months: 11 more people • 3 Inst. Scientists (hard x-ray instruments) • Admin (Chief Engineer, ES&H, Budget, PMCS) • Engineering (2 Inst. Physicists, Designer, Control Eng.) • By end of FY06: 6 more • Admin (Administrator, Database/Web Manager, QA Manager) • Engineering (second Designer, Programmer) Some of the Admin people are matrixed with other SLAC groups

  18. Proposed Project Milestones CD0 (Statement of mission need, begin project) Q3 2005 CD1 (Completion of conceptual design) Q3 2006 CD2a (Baseline costs of Phase 1) Q1 2007 CD3a (Begin construction of Phase 1) Q3 2007 CD4a (Finish Phase 1) before 2012 CD2b 2009 CD3b 2010 CD4b (Finish Phase 2) Q4 2012 Detector development program will be included in Phase 1

  19. Summary • The funding profile constraints on the instrument MIE project, along with the LCLS schedule, indicate that a phased approach is needed • Two instruments in Phase 1, two in Phase 2 • Detector development program in Phase 1 • Funding for this project is lean through FY06 • Overall funding through FY12 is adequate if profile is maintained • Rapid increase of staff in FY06, proximity to SSRL and other SLAC groups will help • Strong support from the Science Teams will be needed, good communication is a priority • Expect CD0 very soon, ready to start on CDR
