  1. Mu2e WGM 4/21/2010 R. Ray Mu2e Project manager

  2. Project Team • We have a L2 manager for the tracker! • AseetMukherjee has assumed this role • Experience from successful CDF Central Tracker • Working to augment his team and find significant roles for 1 or 2 young people. • L2 Manager for the Muon Channel (P. Limon) is retiring and leaving in less than 1 month. • SandorFeher (TD) has agreed to take over from Peter. • Sandor was the Deputy Project Manager for APUL, now in hibernation. • Muon Channel is tightly coupled with the solenoid work. Sandor is tightly integrated into TD structure that is managing the solenoid subproject. • INFN has yet to arrive at a consensus candidate for the Calorimeter L2. • I have been pressing them for the past week to resolve this. Should have a name soon. • Some initial discussions about Trigger and DAQ L2 slot. • CD committed to conceptual design for CD-1. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  4. Tracking • Our two offline tracking and reconstruction experts are meeting in Berkeley this week. • After Rob returns we will have a meeting to discuss how to proceed to a Conceptual design. • There are a limited number of questions that require an answer for CD-1. • We need to focus on these and leave the details for later. • Also some R&D and prototyping work that will extend beyond CD-1 • Our new L2 manager will be coordinating this work and setting simulation priorities. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  5. WBS, Cost, Schedule • We have developed a draft WBS through L4 across the Project. • Have a WBS dictionary for most activities. Still missing a few. • Using the activities required for CD-1 as a development/training ground. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  6. ES&H and NEPA • Met with Nathan Duff (PPD ES&H) last week to discuss safety. • Filled out Environmental Impacts Checklist (EIC) • It is possible that Mu2e could qualify for the categorical exclusion. • No time consuming EA • Lab/DOE resources freed up to work on more difficult LBNE and Project X EA’s. • Paul is organizing a meeting with DOE and ES&H to discuss how to proceed towards making such a determination. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  7. Heat Shield Emerging as Significant Risk Recall that the Heat Shield is intended to protect the Production Solenoid from target debris. • Incoming proton beam is 25 kW • ~ 2.1 kW is radiated into the heat shield/solenoid or removed by target cooling liquid. • Adds to the heat load on the refrigerator • Can cause temperature gradients in the cold mass that eat into temperature margin. Could lead to quenches. • Potential for radiation damage to solenoid components. Tungsten Copper • The MECO heat shield was a 76 ton water-cooled Cu and W structure. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  8. DPA at 1st coil • DPA = Displaced Atoms • Peak DPA in aluminum stabilizer is ~ 2.5 x 10-5/yr. • Close to critical value at 4.2°K. Leads to unacceptable rise in resistance. • Failure points not well known at low temperatures • Investigating possibility of reactor measurements of cold materials jointly with Japanese. DPA per year at 1st coil R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  9. Heat Shield – cont. • An alternative design of tungsten carbide balls and water reduces the radiation by ~10x. • Tungsten carbide is less expensive than tungsten, but an all tungsten carbide design is probably more expensive than tungsten + copper. • Need an engineer to do a conceptual design so we can get a cost estimate • PPD - Rucinski, Pushka, Stefanik… • TD – Rob Riley? • AD ? R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  10. Requirements Documents R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  11. Electronics • LBL is just beginning to update the design of the BaBarElefant Chip. This is the only electronics work we have done to date. • Now that CD is beginning to work on the DAQ we need to get moving on FE electronics. • Our new L2 manager for the tracker and soon to be named L2 manager for the calorimeter will have to make this a priority and work with CD to come up with a coherent conceptual design. • A Project Electrical Engineer could begin to play an important role • Probably only need 0.25 – 0.5 FTE in this role for the next year. • I have some ideas for who could play this role and will be talking to management about their availability. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  12. Action Items • Get resources for CD-1 activities into P6. Begin work on predecessors and BOEs. • Understand (and document!) the magnitude of the heat shield problem. • Agree on a strategy for getting the tracker to CD-1. • Get L2 Manager for calorimeter in place. • Get moving on FE electronics. R. Ray - Mu2e WGM

  13. Summary • We continue to make good progress on the solenoids and accelerator. • Work starting up again on the detector hall. One more round of verifying requirements before Conceptual design. • Work will begin to accelerate on the tracker now that we have a L2 manager. • The Heat Shield poses a significant technical and cost risk. We are working hard to understand this risk in detail. Will need some engineering to get us to a credible/defendable Conceptual Design. • Trying to get more requirements documented. • We have reached the point where we could us a Project EE. R.
