  3. Observations, quotes • Alice: techn. progress (ladder assembly tool); physics performance report • in 2002 • WA98:’hadron gas + mixed phase + QGP = direct photon spectrum!’ • NA49: ‘charm not in equilibrium with QGP’ • Chorus: NETSCAN; ‘Phase II emulsion data taking complete at • the end of 2002’ • Hermes: flavour decomposition p spin; G/G • ZEUS: 200 pb-1 next year; F2 charm; CC • ‘Grid computing power for users within the year’ • Antares ‘Deployment sector-line Autumn 2002’ • Lively R&D (Mimosa; TPC RO; etc.); ‘We need a R&D group’ NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  4. ‘WW in very good agreement with SM, still preliminary’ • ‘recent O() calculations have large impact on TGC’s’ • ‘MW vs Mt (+ MH constraints) shows that SM still holds’ • Expected final error 28 –39 MeV • (it is perfectly OK to write a thesis on preliminary results!) • ‘see the moon shadow’ • HERA-B: redefinition of physics progr.; • ‘the mouse is out of HERA-B’; FLT trigger impressive; • viable and interesting physics programme • ‘if you look at your detector in great detail the amount of • material increases’; ‘LHCb tracking optimization TDR • in fall of 2002’ NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  5. MDT production highly non-trivial, started! • Si strip det. Three mods built; problem with FE electr. (almost) • under control • State of the art software taking shape; physics studies • D0, 12 pb-1; high quality data from Christmas; • successful reconstruction of physics object from data taken • so far NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  6. Statistics: 50% on physics 50% on technology, 50 % from lap-tops and (almost) 20 % by women NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  9. It is important, and not straightforward to optimally exploit the (few!) running experiments and at the same time prepare the future ones Totaal FOM Inst.

  10. They will join us soon: H.J. Bulten (FOM dakpan, then VU) - LHCb A. Pellegrino (FOM) - LHCb G. Raven (FOM dakpan, then VU) - LHCb M. Vreeswijk (UvA) - Atlas R. Snellings (FOM Springplank) - Alice We still need further consolidation of Antares/astroparticle Physics Vacancy UU to be filled again, as soon as possible! NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  11. The CERN budget: LHCCostReview.html FCMainPoints.html Progress21Nov.html CERN Council meets today NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  12. The NIKHEF budget Implementation of ‘Soest V’: reduction of budget for Subatomic Physics to 33,5 % of FOM budget has already been realized The NIKHEF ‘FOM basisexploitatie’ budget in long term perspective (as we ‘understand’ it today) KFl 26 073,5 (2001) KFl 23 896,0 (2005) 1 000 KFl from Univ. not included yet Werkgemeenschap KFl 3 296,1 (2001) KFl 2 470,0 + 331,0 (2005) Universities ~ 6 200 KFl / year (Most important issue here: instroom! NIKHEF helps where it can! Many (young) people want to hear about quarks (and black holes)) NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  13. The ‘basisexploitatie’ at this level will lead to a deficit of • O(106 HFl) from 2002 onwards... • Additional income is absolutely needed (and even then...) • (AMS-IX) • DataGRID EU grants and the like (ICES/KIS) • Vernieuwingsimpuls • FOM Beleidsruimte (deadline end of January!) • ... • Other worries, all financial, none technical • Atlas ECT Cold masses • Atlas Cost Overruns • On common items such as barrel coils • Commissioning and Integration • Maintenance and Operation • We will ... NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  14. ... stick to our final offer concerning ECT cold masses Discuss the Atlas cost overruns with FOM and see whether and on which term, over which period an additional investment sum would be available - would do the job... The LHCb OT production infrastructure (clean room) needs to be put in place NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  15. The LHC programmes need our full attention and the lion’s share • of our resources, nevertheless it is necessary to already start to • think about the farther future, because: • lead times of HEP projects are very large • ‘technical’ manpower phases out somewhat before the scientific • completion of a project – very important to maintain technical • expertise at the highest level • and because • it is very unlikely that the LHC gives all the final answers • (it is at the same time very likely that the LHC will drastically • change the face of the Standard Model) The ECFA, HEPAP and GSF recommendations NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  16. At the same time in Durham (just an illustration of one of more discussions, not an encouragement and certainly not a recommendation on my behalf).... • IPPP Workshop on the future of lepton-nucleon scattering,  6-7 december 2001, Durham, UKKey physics issues for HERA - III:        1) unpolarized deuterons in HERA:                •  - measure F_2^n               •    - flavour decomposition (through e+ & e-)        2) heavy ions in HERA:                •  - expected observation of saturation at low x, which is supposedly enhanced in nuclear (high density) • targets              •    - medium effects (J/Psi prod.) that are relevant for observation of QGM at RHIC and LHC (non-linear dE/dx).        3) polarized protons/deuterons in HERA:                • - observation of predicted down turn of g1(x) at x < 0.01           • - extraction of gluon polarization at low x - both through high p_T hadrons, and through QCD evolution of • g1(x)        4) transversely polarized deuterons at HERMES:                • -flavour decomposition of transverse structure function h1(x) through hadron tagging               • -generalized parton distributions - through the observation of exclusive (vector) meson production • (here transversely polarized targets are highly relevant since "exact" QCD-based calculations can be • performed) • (There were other subjects mentioned - like diffraction - which one could also do, but which are probably less • appealing.) NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  17. Technical considerations:        - proton polarization in HERA will be very difficult as 1800 depolarizing resonances have to passed – price tag: 30 MEuro        - polarized deuterons is easier due to the reduced d magnetic moment, but no separate price tag was mentioned        - heavy ions in HERA si technically possible, but electron cooling is needed to fight beam blow up due to intra beam scattering - price tag: 53 MEuroManpower issues:        - ZEUS has little interest in HERA - III due to large reduction  of manpower (to LHC)        - H1 is also getting smaller, but has a much more serious interest in HERA-III        - HERMES: large fraction of collaboration is interested in continuation after 2006, also with an eye on eRHIC or TESLA-N Solution proposed by Max Klein (DESY-Zeuthen) in summary:        2007 - 2008: unpolarized deuterons in HERA, continue operation of  HERMES and merge H1 and ZEUS; collect 50 pb-1.        2009 - 2010: heavy ions in HERA + detector upgrades         2011 - 2012: unify H1/ZEUS/HERMES for polarized deuterons in HERA (most likely based on H1 detector) NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  18. ‘Toekomst Techniek’ Draft of FOM publication in preparation; Preliminary NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  19. Accelerator physics (personal view; for discussion) • novel/new/innovative accelerator principles(Tesla et al., CLIC, • very high int. proton drivers,muon storage, neutrino factory, • muon collider, etc.) are in our interest • – primarily a task for the big accelerator labs • university training in accelerator physics (cf. ECFA recom- • mendation) – all universities teach Maxwell’s equations; • ‘specialization’ only at TUE • inventory of (technical) know how and the need for it • (hospitals, industry, research other than HEP) will be drawn • up (FOM workshop) No immediate action by NIKHEF NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  20. A number of other issues for 2002: • The 31st International Conference on High Energy Physics • will be held in Amsterdam from July 24 –31 2002 • NIKHEF heavily involved! • We have been asked to host the final meeting (conference...) • of the ECFA/DESY Workshop on (physics at) linear colliders • in Spring 2003 • Nijmegen will organize the ‘Triangular Joint School’ NIKHEF Annual Meeting 2001

  21. In conclusion: • NIKHEF continues to play a prominent role, nationally • and internationally • astro-particle physics is becoming part of our baseline • the scientific programme is productive and attractive; • we will be ready for LHC, the next big step, and LHC • should be ready for us!
