Building Strong National and International
Collaborations
  • Every LBNL physics program is built on
    collaboration with university groups and other
    national labs.
  • In ATLAS, SNAP, Daya Bay, and DUSEL, LBNL has
    provided major leadership from the outset.
  • In each, we plan to continue playing a central
    role throughout the program.

DOE-HEP Mission Statement
  • The mission of the High Energy Physics (HEP)
    program is to understand how our universe works
    at its most fundamental level. We do this by
    discovering the most elementary constituents of
    matter and energy, exploring the basic nature of
    space and time itself, and probing the
    interactions between them.

Cosmology is a central part of HEP.
8
Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology a
Grassroots Movement
  • Numerous efforts initiated by university and lab
    groups
  • SCP, GLAST, SDSS, SDSSII
  • DES, BOSS, SNAP, LSST
  • DOE-supported discovery of dark energy is among
    the major achievements of our field.
  • Dark energy is the biggest challenge in
    fundamental physics.

SNAP measure expansion history and growth of
large-scale structure.
  • Must measure both to distinguish dark energy from
    failure of General Relativity.
  • Space mission required to reduce systematics.
  • SNAP builds on our pioneering program on
    supernova (SNe Ia) cosmology.
  • A weak-lensing survey complements the SNe Ia to
    optimize program as shown by DETF.
  • Anticipated DOE share of JDEM is 400M.

SNAP RD Achievements
New compact telescope optics concept proved
exceptional performance in a rocket-borne
experiment (key to JDEM). Founded on LBNL and UCB
strong optics heritage from Keck.
LBNL HEP IC group developed readout of high
channel-count cryogenic pixel plane.
Powerful collaboration of universities and labs
with industry resulted in high QE out to 1.7 ? in
4M pixel format. Now detector of choice for
other JDEM proposals.
12M-pixel LBNL CCD with high QE out to 1.0 ? and
low diffusion is radiation resistant. Same
technology is baseline for LSST detectors.

Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS)
LBNL Leadership roles in BOSS PI David
Schlegel Instrument Scientist Natalie
Roe Survey Scientist Martin White
Part of SDSS-III, BOSS uses redshifts of 1.6M
galaxies (z0.5)and Lyman-? forest of 0.16 M
quasars (z2.5) to determine cosmological
parameters.
SDSS telescope at Apache Point
Sloan Foundation agreed to support SDSS-III.
Proposals pending at DOE and NSF. MOUs signed or
in negotiations with many institutions
Arizona Brazilian group UC Irvine UCSC Cambridge C
ase Western FNAL Florida French
group Heidelberg Japanese group Johns
Hopkins Korean Inst. Adv. Study
LBNL LANL MPA Garsching MSU New Mexico
State NYU OSU Penn State Portsmouth Astrn. Inst.
Princeton Princeton Virginia Wasington
DES LBNL furnishes CCDs to upgrade the camera
at CTIO for DES. LBNL science role SNe and WL.
Detectors for DES now in production at LBNL
Microsystems Lab.
Replace red CCDs on SDSS camera with
w/red-sensitive LBNL/SNAP CCDs, making it
possible to go to higher-z
15
Cosmology Views
  • We cant be satisfied with understanding 5 of
    the Universe both dark energy and dark matter
    are fundamental experimental issues for the
    field.
  • DOE has led the exploration of dark energy and
    has several important Stage III experiments,
    including DES and BOSS.
  • The US is currently the world leader in dark
    energy research. SNAP will ensure that DOE
    retains this leadership position.

16
LBNL and ATLAS
  • Our highest-priority accelerator-based program.
  • LBNL a leader in ATLAS since 1994.

23
LHC Views
  • Our view maintenance/operations and
    software/computing support too low for US
    scientists to fully exploit investment in ATLAS.
  • Modest increase (15) needed.
  • Very strong support of detector upgrades
    essential to maintain US leadership at energy
    frontier at CERN.
  • Support advanced technology contributions to LHC
    machine upgrades.

DUSEL opportunities
  • Provides ultimate neutrino oscillation program.
  • Site for direct detection of dark matter
    (Sadoulet et al.).
  • Site for future neutrinoless double beta decay
    (LBNL double beta decay efforts in CUORE and
    independent initiative by Nygren).
  • Natural connection with Kevin Lesko in Nuclear
    Science Division.

27
Program Summary
  • SNAP anchors our cosmology program and is the
    crucial next step in the exploration of dark
    energy.
  • ATLAS and LARP remain the primary foci of our
    accelerator-based program.
  • The Daya Bay measurement will help define the
    future of neutrino physics.

28
Views Summary
  • Strong support of the U.S. LHC program, including
    machine and detector upgrades, is essential if
    the U.S. is to retain its role at the energy
    frontier.
  • Dark energy is the biggest challenge in physical
    science! SNAP will provide the most important
    step forward.
  • Neutrinos least understood part of the Standard
    Model. Daya Bay likely to provide next big clue.
  • Long-term RD needed.
  • Detector RD.
  • High-field magnet development.
  • Accelerator RD.
