Villars 2004 Report on the SPSC Villars Meeting September 22-28 2004 John Dainton University of Liverpool, GB (on behalf of the SPSC)
Villars 2004 • Framework • Machines and Beams • Heavy Ions • Neutrinos • Soft and Hard Protons • Antiproton Physics • Flavour Physics • Other Topics • Summary Report on the SPSC Villars Meeting September 22-28 2004 John Dainton University of Liverpool, GB (on behalf of the SPSC) Note 8/10/04: Overheads are here exactly as presented apart from a small number of bugs which have been fixed, and apart from the inclusion of some overheads skipped in the seminar because of time pressure.
Charge “to review present and future activities and opportunities in fixed-target physics, and to consider possibilities and options for a future fixed target programme at CERN” globally important realistic (beams + resources) short, intermediate, and long term from the SPC SPSC not in approval/rejection mode !
Timetable “… groups working on fixed target experiments at CERN, and also groups which have in mind the submission of proposals for such experiments, to forward to the SPSC secretariat in due time a short report indicating their ideas and plans for the future” SPSC67 April 2004 11 submissions received + COMPASS DIRAC kπ atoms CNGS } committed beyond 2005
Timetable contd May 25-26:CERN SPL Workshop (also @ Villars) June 5-8: High Intensity Workshop (INFN) HIF04 (also @ Villars) SPSC68 July 6 2004 programme finalised (speakers fixed) September 22 to 28: Villars October: Seminar @ CERN December:report to RB + SPC

2. Machines and Beams Aymar, Benedikt, Cervelli, Elsener, Engelen, Garoby, Gatignon, Palladino
Users’ View of Future:pre Villars04 Garoby ●as heard by HIP from users ** 1350 pulses/h – 3.2´1013 ppp * Reference value for analysis
●beam loss irradiation @ high intensity multi-turn ejection from PS (“island extractn”) ●period 0.6 s 0.9 s ? > cost > worse PSB flexibility better ●intensity/SPS pulse increase CNGS flux - machine impedance (kickers, RF…) ? - injection energy ? - bunching in the PS ? Upgrades Benedikt Garoby only
Without upgrades* Benedikt Garoby * with important irradn of PS equipt ** ultimate beam in LHC
With upgrades Benedikt Garoby ●(i) PSB repetition period of 0.9 s (ii) 7x1013 ppp in SPS (iii) Linac4 injecting into PSB
Fixed target CNGS Benedikt Garoby ●FT + CNGS share SPS cycles CNGS request 4.5 1019 pot/year FT request 7.2 105 spills/year Without changes Double batch + Linac4 J J Double batch ●impossible to meet FT + CNGS demands
Fixed target CNGS Benedikt Garoby ●FT + CNGS share SPS cycles FT + CNGS LHC + CNGS ●impossible to get closer to FT + CNGS demands ?
Scope of Future Options Benedikt Garoby synergy
● start 2004/5: - PS: multi-turn ejection - increase SPS intensity (impacts all machines) - 0.9s PSB repetition ● Linac 4 design construction decision @ end 2006 ● prepare decision on optimum future accelerator - study of a Superconducting Proton Linac (SPL) - alternative scenarios for the LHC upgrade context for SPSC strategy and input Strategy (and action) Benedikt Garoby

It should be noted that ion injection via LEIR for fixed targethas not yet been studied in depth. More studies are required at the source, Linac3, LEIR, PS and at the SPS. North: Heavy Ions >2005 Gatignon After the long shut-down ions will be injected into the SPS via LEIR. The LEIR project has been launched for filling the LHC with ions. Filling the SPS instead will require more resources. If the ions are required for the SPS fixed target program and if the required resources are made available, one might expect to get: • Lead ions from 2009 (after PS-SPS-LHC ions running-in) • Other (lighter) ions depending on LHC ion physics program. It should be noted that many relevant non-radioactive ion species are possible ‘in principle’, but with significant preparation time and effort. Note that North Area and LHC ions are exclusive if not the same ion Possible intensities are up to 109 Pb54+ from LEIR per transfer (3.6 sec). They can be limited in LEIR with an interlock based on a BCT measurement. Limitation of flux in EHN1 requires new TAX blocks (up to 300 kCHF/beam).
