fPhysics Research Program
• Particle physics -- understand what are the fundamental components of our universe and how they interact.
• Experimental research uses Accelerators– complex of accelerators at Fermilab, Tevatron Collider,
Neutrinos – Large Hadron Collider, CERN, Switzerland.
• Cosmic radiation;– optical telescopes– charged cosmic rays– WIMPS – cold dark matter
• Two theoretical physics groups– particle physics– cosmology.
• All the components of the research program are naturally intertwined.

fCollider Physics• Run II operations continue to do well
– Integrated Luminosity ~ 1.3 fb-1 for each experiment– ~ 1 fb-1 in summer conference results (one last week)– Computing is a challenge but is successful thus far– Run IIB: most upgrades in after shutdown– Note publications– Transition from Tevatron to LHC
• CMS– CD4A a great success– Experiment to be completed (Silicon integration, Pixels for the US)– Transition to operating experiment– Computing Reviews continue to be very positive– Strong impact of physicist/CP team– Transitions from Tevatron experiments– Postdoc recruiting needs to ramp up– LPC appears to be successful so far– FNAL people continue to provide strong leadership
• Run II CMS Synergy

fTevatron 1 fb-1 Result!

fCollider Physics – Issues/Actions• Run IIB upgrade projects end, some earned contingency to be
recovered
• Task Force Report– Attempting to respond– Limited by resources
• Operations eat inflation, manpower in operations reduces – We try to apply individuals where need is evident– Attempt to gain with efficiencies, common solutions, common groups
across the two experiments (eg system management of online, farms operations)
– Attempting to maintain strong post-doc cadre
• Run IIB Offline computing continues to rely on:– Lab computing infrastructure: buildings, power and cooling and has
required very considerable investment – in kind computing from collaborations exploitation of which, in turn,
relies on Laboratory Networking investments – Good news: ESNET plans now foresee an upgrade of supplied
infrastructure
February 27, 2006 11
fMiniBooNE , Fixed Target Experiments & External Beams
• MiniBooNE Operations going well– More than 7.2 x 1020 pot– Expect results in Summer– Systematic studies included multiple horn settings and
reversed polarity (antineutrinos)
• MIPP– Particle production experiment– Relevant to neutrino oscillations– Experiment completed its Priority 1 and 2 data– Future not evident
• Test Beam– Healthy set of requests ( LHC, SuperB, generic, and ILC)– Operations work well– Attempting to develop plan for improved beam (low energy)– Pressure/requests for increased duty cycle
February 27, 2006 12
fNeutrinos• Long Baseline NuMI-MINOS
– Construction projects completed– Operations have started well– Problems with horn and target – Anticipate the first results very soon (1 x 1020 pot)
• MINERvA– NuMI near hall– Neutrino cross sections, physics and LBL projections– Directors CD1 review was very good, submission to DOE 3/2006– CD0 in train? ( EIR complete)– Detector (~$9.2M), Installation(~$1.2M) – No construction in PB – Flat scenario
• SciBooNE – Booster Beam, – Detector was used in K2K– Data will help T2K– KEK Director wrote to Pier
• LArTPC a modest Liquid Argon neutrino initiative
February 27, 2006 13
fNeutrinos
• NOvA – sin2213, mass hierarchy
– Next step in Long Baseline neutrino program– R&D in progress– Has CD0 (thankyou), awaiting NuSAG Report– Director’s CD1 Review tomorrow – DOE CD1 Review April 4-6– Target is construction start in 2008 – No construction in PB – Flat scenario
February 27, 2006 14
fNOvA Project Funding Needs• 2007
– PED $11M– R&D Need $ 5M
• 2008 – Construction
• Site and Building, $ 44.7 M ($ 37.8 M obligation + 25%
contingency) • Others Elements (Base Cost):
– Scintillator startup $ 7.1 M – Extrusion startup, $ 3.0 M – APDs $ 8.3 M– Block Raiser $ 2.2 M– Project Office $ 0.5 M
• Director’s Review starts February 28
February 27, 2006 15
fExperimental Particle Astrophysics• SDSS
– SDSS I complete– SDSSII established, started well, impressive SuperNova yield
• Auger– Largest ground array– Beautiful hybrid capability– Operating well– Stretched for cash but first physics last summer– Definitive Agasa/HiRes resolution should come this year??
• CDMS– Best limits in the world – Starting full operation (5 towers) now cooled down– Looking to future (NSF funding, DOE proposal, FNAL in management,
cryo,and electronics, all at controlled scale, 25 kg)• JDEM
– Some important work for SNAP, mainly physicist effort & electronics• COUPP
– Liquid Bubble chamber for cold dark matter
February 27, 2006 16
fExperimental Particle Astrophysics
• DES– Very interesting Dark Energy initiative, exploits FNAL
skills– Scale (~ $20M for instrument) -- possible for this decade– Generic ground based Dark Energy -- CD0– Aiming for construction in FY08
• DOE MIE – FY08: $4.7,FY09:4.0, FY10:1.7M)– Cannot maintain pace in the PB - Flat scenario– Interest in collaboration from UC, U of I, U. Michigan, UK
Consortium (UC London (PPARC), Portsmouth) Spanish Consortium (IEEC (Astrophysics), IFAE & CIEMAT (HEP)), all with contributions.
– We need reading from DETF?
– They need reading from FNAL/DOE to convince to commit.

fComputing• Computing for Run II continues to do well
– Production keeps pace with data taking• Improvements to handle higher occupancies• Improvements in calibration methodology
– Analysis pace is also maintained– Flexibility of resources has been important– Record utilization of grid implementations for both
experiments– Large non-FNAL, non-US, in-kind, contributions of computing
• CMS C&S– Hardware installation tempered to match schedule– Deploy analysis computing just-in-time– Staffing has required internal transfers– Impact of team approach (physicists and computing
professionals) is evident• Fermilab installed infrastructure (to Starlight) is
part of operations, ESNET planning situation has improved
• Infrastructure is a continuing issue down the line
February 27, 2006 19
fCentral Computing & Networking
• Lattice Project, Fermilab managing across BNL, FNAL and TJNAF, FNAL core support for the infrastructure
• FermiGRID strategy is almost completely implemented, all farms participate, it has become a necessity
• Open Science Grid is becoming increasingly important to a widening range of stakeholders.
• Cyber Security Assist visits went extremely well, they identified several best practices which they are trying to propagate to other labs. It would be nice to see some return on this.
February 27, 2006 20
fCentral Computing & Networking
• But …
• Operational and support staff (eg Networking) are under heavy pressure. Especially for Run II, this pinches the scientist leadership opportunities
• It is difficult to improve when budgets are declining and when the outside world continues to attract, and be attracted by, our best people.
• There is reliance also on remote, international computing for Run II, with cooperation on interoperability – our committees warn us that this is vulnerable to LHC competition
• Support for traditional software, for example, simulations, ROOT, GEANT, needs to grow, especially for ILC.
• We are attempting to rationalize DAQ/Controls effort for accelerator work, ILC controls initiatives, and some experiment support

fSummary• Fermilab continues to hum with activity
– Collider Program remains strong, luminosity is growing– Neutrino Operations have been excellent– CMS participation is strong and strengthening– ILC is evident
BUT• Concern about building a mid-term future experimental
program
• NOvA is supported for PED, needs more for R&D, needs strong FY08 construction start
• MINERvA needs FY07 R&D and FY08 construction• DES needs FY07 R&D and FY08 construction• SciBooNE is at our limit
• No other experimental initiatives are supported
