The Lab‘s Status & Future

August 2003 – Fermilab - InterActions, Petra Folkerts, DESY

Report from DESY, Hamburg, Germany



DESY‘s 3 Columns

• Accelerator R&D Work since 1992: superconducting linear accelerator for the TESLA LC and the X-FEL

• Particle Physics1000 HEP users at HERA II3 detectors H1, ZE_US, HERMES (HERA-B finished data acquisition in Febr. this year

• Synchrotron Radiation Research2000 SR users in the HASYLABHAmburg SYnchrotron radiation LAB



TESLA and X-FEL

October 2002X-FEL

Supplement

March 20015-volume TESLA TDR(LC + X-FEL)



The Decision

• 5 February 2003Decision of the German Federal Research Ministry on Large-Scale Facilities

1) YES to the TESLA XFEL „A new free electron laser is to be built at the DESY research centre in Hamburg. In view of the locational advantage, Germany is prepared to cover half of the investment costs amounting to 673 million. Talks on European cooperation will soon start so that it will be possible to take a decision on construction within about two years. The construction period will be appr. six years.“



The Decision

2) NOT YET to the TESLA LC „No German site is at present proposed for the TESLA linear accelerator. The reason is that the accelerator project will be an international collaboration. International developments must therefore be taken into account. An independent initiative by Germany concerning the site of the accelerator is neither appropriate nor necessary. DESY will, however, be

able to continue its international research work so that German participation in a future global project will be possible.“

(PLUS 120 Mio Eur for PETRA III as a national project )



The Decision

14 June 2003, Public Science Forum in HamburgResearch Minister Edelgard Bulmahn:

“TESLA is not buried – and as well as scientists may have dreams ministers may have dreams. But from the today’s point of view, I never can’t guarantee that TESLA could be realized in 10 years or that there will be a decision on TESLA in 5-6 years.”

“With the X-FEL and the PETRA III project DESY’s future is assured for a long time. Both projects are an enormous challenge and DESY enjoys the German government’s confidence of the successful realization of both projects.”



The Consequence

Since June 2003DESY is on the way to change from a Particle Physics Lab with a strong Synchrotron Radiation Research Departmentinto aLight Source Lab with Particle Physics Groups and activities



DESY Status

HERA II until 2006/07

With 3 detectors

No HERA III possible

as a user facility• based on the TESLA Test

Facility• experience with sc TESLA

acceleration modules



DESY Future

PETRA III• from 2007 rebuilding

the HERA injector PETRA II

European X-FEL Lab

Next 2 years: • Build-up an European X-FEL Collaboration• Preparation of the X-FEL construction approval



DESY‘s HEP future

• Data analysis of HERA II … 2010 ?• No experiments after 2007 (no HERA III

program)• e+e- physics and detector R&D for the next LC• R&D for TESLA: sc cavities, high gradient (800

GeV)• GAN and Grid• Participate in the in the LC working groups of

ECFA and ICFA



DESY‘s Outreach future

• DESY as a light source lab• X-FEL promotion• Communication of HERA discoveries• Outreach for pp:
