A new building will be constructed near CDF. The Office Technical & Education (OTE) building is part of the larger Illinois Accelerator Research Center

◦ OTE is Fully funded at $ 20 M by a grant from the Illinois Dept of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO)

◦ Yes, we have the cash !

DOE’s contribution is the site preparation, the refurbished CDF assembly building, and funds to outfit the completed IARC complex

The contract is awarded and ground breaking for DOE funded site preparation has started. (IASU GPP Project)

Hence this talk.

New Building Status

5/16/11


OTE building conceptual design is complete

The engineering design is advanced

Schedule:

◦ Site preparation = Now through this summer

◦ Building out for bids in July, Construction start in Nov 2011

◦ Beneficial occupancy in summer 2013

◦ Refurbished CDF heavy assembly building in ~ 2014

IARC funded by DCEO as a means for the lab to encourage new high tech industries in Illinois

IARC “Program” is under development

New Building Status

5/16/11


Work with Industry, University, and Laboratory partners to promote the development of accelerator technology, projects, and applications

Promote the growth of high tech industry based on accelerator technology leading to new products and capabilities

Work with University partners to create an educational center for accelerator science and technology

IARC Mission Statement

5/16/11


Opportunity to put substance behind the claim that HEP is the developer/steward of accelerator technology within the Office of Science

Opportunity to function as a center for accelerator based projects ( e.g. Project X, or other non-HEP Projects in the Office of Science, e.g. NGLS)

Opportunity for Fermilab to become a National center for accelerator education

Opportunity to establish additional funding sources outside OHEP or with industry develop IP

Opportunity to develop technologies that benefit society bringing recognition to HEP and FNAL

The Opportunity

5/16/11

Fermilab has: ◦ core capabilities and world class scientific and

engineering staff that have the potential to make an impact beyond the field of high-energy physics.

◦ infrastructure capabilities that are unique, and that could potentially be used in applications beyond the field of high-energy physics.


Why do this at Fermilab?

5/16/11


New ideas in accelerator technology seem to die for three reasons ◦ Inadequate resources (financial or personnel) in

industry, universities, or labs to demonstrate feasibility of an idea

◦ During the transition from small scale technology demonstration to a commercial product

◦ Lack of acceptance of the new technology by potential customers (ignorance or prejudice) that is cured only by large scale demonstrations

IARC can help fill these gaps

IARC Business Model (Gaps)

5/16/11


The number of accelerators in use in the U.S. economy is growing dramatically but the U.S. is not providing formal training for many students in accelerator science and technology

IARC can be a center for a university-lab-DOE partnership to train Scientists, engineer, and technicians in Accelerator Science and Technology

IARC Business Model (Gaps)

5/16/11


DOE HEP (dedicated B&R for Accel stewardship ?)

DOE Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR)

University of Chicago (FRA)

DOE Office of Science (non-HEP)

Illinois Dept of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO ) and ISTC

LDRD at ANL or FNAL?

DOE Advanced Research Project Agency-Energy (ARPA-E)

Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA)

Department of Homeland Security (DHS)

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or IEPA)

Industry & venture capital

Dept of commerce?

IARC Business Model: Funding Sources

5/16/11

Traditional

Non-Traditional


Businesses are motivated by the potential for profit… so the business model must make financial sense

Industry wants:◦ Technical support

◦ Infrastructure and space

◦ Financial support

◦ Creation/protection of intellectual property and new commercial products and a transparent process

The don’t want: unpredictable processes and excessive red tape

Challenge will be to establish a “program” that works on a DOE lab site

Industrial Area Site Upgrades



No admittance to construction areas w/o PPE & OK from Fermi Construction Coordinator.

Access to Industrial complex & CDF will be maintained at all times◦ However some alternate routes will be required.

◦ Access to CDF west side entrance will be by special arrangements only.

◦ Utility shut downs are designed to be minimal.

Portions of D Road closed to thru-traffic <30 days

Bike/Pedestrian detours will be required.

What to Expect from Construction Activities:


IARC is new territory for Fermilab A challenge to craft a successful program Even without a “formal” IARC program

announcement there seems to be lots of interest in Industry

A great opportunity State will pay for the first new large building

constructed at Fermilab in ~ 20 yrs Stay tuned

Conclusion

IARC RDK All experimenters mtg

Ideally, these non-HEP activities would have the following characteristics

Strong overlap with the laboratory’s core capabilities or core technologies, thus maintaining competency and strengthening skills important to the science & technology base of the lab

Establishes a connection between HEP research and societal benefits that FNAL, Office of Science and DOE can point to

Enhances the stature of the laboratory and its staff

Meets a National need, again allowing the connection to be made between HEP technology and national priorities

Increases interaction between the laboratory and industry to develop and transfer technology with the potential for commercialization

Leverages resources to produce high-tech jobs and industry in the area (Goal of DCEO in funding IARC)
