  6. Why Do We Need High Intensity Protons? ・Materials & Life Sciences at 3 GeV ・Nuclear & Particle Physics at 50 GeV ・R&D toward Transmutation at 0.6 GeV

  7. Three Questions about Mass • Concept of the Mass Itself • Higgs Mechanism(LHC, Lepton Collider, etc.) • Neutrino Mass? • Beyond the Standard Model • Generation of the Mass of Matter (= Generation of the Mass of Proton or Neutron) • Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking

  8. Nuclear/Particle Physics (1) • Neutrino oscillation and neutrino mass (SuperK + K2K) • SuperK’s atmospheric n experiment + recent SNO experiment suggests the finite mass for nm and n. • K2K nmdisappearance experiment also suggests the finite mass of nm. • From measurement of mn to the lepton family mixing (Joint Project) • Flux (nm) at the Planned 50 GeV PS > 100 x Flux (nm) at KEK 12 GeV PS • Future facility … towards CP violation

  21. Transmutation + Energy Production

  22. Recent Events (1) • August, 1998: Suggestion of a joint effort between Monbu-sho and Science and Tech. Agency (STA) • March, 1999: MoU between JAERI and KEK signed. • New organization for the project was initiated. • April, 1999: International Review: Y. Cho (chair) • Emphasized the importance of the joint effort. • May, 1999: Positive Movement at both Monbu-sho and STA • Monbu-sho: Science Council emphasized the importance of a cooperative effort between KEK and JAERI. • STA: The Joint Proposal was submitted to the Atomic Energy Council of Japan. Enthusiastic! • December, 1999 - June, 2000: Another (& the last) major review of the project. • The Review Committee was formed under the Atomic Energy Council of Japan and the Science Council of Japan. • Final report was published in August, 2000. • Encouraged strongly the project. Need to set priorities.

  23. Recent Events (2) • April, 2001: Phase 1 construction started. • Phase 1 + Phase 2 = 1,890 Oku Yen. • Phase 1 = 1,335 Oku Yen for 6 years. • Cash in fund = 30 (JFY00) + 47 (JFY01) Oku Yen. • Construction budget does not include salaries. • May, 2001: Construction Agreement between KEK and JAERI signed. A new construction team initiated. • About 300 people from KEK and JAERI are now working. • June, 2001: Interim Report from the Prefecture Committee, called “Science Frontier 21”. • Connection to industry, Internationalization of Tokai Village, etc. • Final report will be published in March, 2002. • July, 2001: Approval by the Tokai Village. • Geological studies have been started. • December, 2001: Budget for JFY2002 (+ Supplemental budget for JFY2001).

  25. Phase 1 and Phase 2

  26. Phase 1 Items to be Constructed at 50 GeV • Accelerator • Stable operations up to 30 GeV guarenteed. Most likely, up to 40 GeV is possible. • Magnets and all accelerator elements to be constructed in Phase 1 are for the 50 GeV operation. • The power storage device is deferred to Phase 2. • Slow Extraction • Very limited experimental areas (see the later talks). • Fast Extraction • Elements that must be installed at the beginning will be constructed. • The minimum accelerator components + building for the fast extraction from 50 GeV. • Crossing point between the neutrino line and the 3 GeV BT. to allow Phase 2 neutrino construction without any major shutdown of the accelerators

  29. Novel RF Cavity with Finemet • 高透磁率金属磁性体の開発 • 最高加速性能 • ( 50kV/m )を達成 FINEMET(高透磁率金属磁性体)装荷空胴

  30. Magnet for 50 GeV Synchrotron

  31. Proposed Schedule Now

  32. Organization for Construction

  33. Issues for 50 GeV PS • Accelerator • Phase 1: 40 GeV could be possible instead of 30 GeV. • An additional power storage device is needed for 50 GeV (Phase 2 includes the power storage device). • Slow Extraction • Need to select a few experiments for Phase 1. • Will form PAC-like Committee soon to select possible experiments for Phase 1 (This point is a discussion item at this Workshop.) • When do we propose Phase 2 ? • Fast Extraction • Neutrino experiment has a very high priority. KEK will submit Phase 2 neutrino construction budget to the Government soon. • Need to form a high-level review committee at the Government.

  34. Issues for 50 GeV PS (continued) • Other Issues • What to do about an anti-proton accumulator ring? • LEAR magnets were shipped from CERN to KEK. • The site has to be saved before the Phase 1 construction. • Are there any other important areas to be reserved before finalizing the Phase 1 construction design? • Polarized protons? • Experimental Activities until the Completion of the Project • KEK 12 GeV activities and the experimental activities outside Japan. Most likely, the PAC-like Committee will be formed within half a year. Call for LOI will be made at that time. -- Need discussions at this Workshop, though.

  35. Beam Commissioning

  36. Possible Upgrades • From 1 MW to 5 MW • Strong voice toward 5 MW from neutron scattering community. • Also, this upgrade is useful for nuclear transmutation. • Nuclear/particle physics • Neutrino factory • Muon factory • Anti-proton accumulator ring • Ultra cold neutrons • Heavy-ion beams at about 20 GeV per nucleon • Polarized protons

  37. Summary • Uniqueness of the Project • Goal: World’s highest intensity for proton beams. • Variety of secondary beams + Variety of frontier sciences. • International Research Center • Would like to create a research center in the Asian/Oceanic region. • Would also like to invite scientists from Europe and the US. • Variety of Possibilities for Future Upgrades • First Example of the Joint Project between the Past Two Agencies, Monbu-sho and STA. • Need to Establish “Strategy” for the 50 GeV Experimental Activities This Workshop
