PIP2-BD: GeV Proton Beam Dump at Fermilab's PIP-II Linac

The PIP-II superconducting RF linac is currently under construction at Fermilab and is expected to be completed by the end of 2028. PIP-II is capable of operating in a continuous-wave mode and can concurrently supply 800 MeV protons to a mega-watt, GeV-scale beam dump facility and to LBNF/DUNE. Designs for proton accumulator rings are being studied to bunch the PIP-II protons into the short pulses needed for neutrino and low-mass dark matter experiments. PIP2-BD is a proposed 100-ton LAr scintillation-only experiment, whose detector design is inspired by CENNS-10 and CCM, that would have world-leading sensitivities to BSM physics, including low-mass dark matter produced in the PIP-II proton beam dump.

Higgs-Energy LEptoN (HELEN) Collider based on advanced superconducting radio frequency technology

This Snowmass 2021 contributed paper discusses a Higgs-Energy LEptoN (HELEN) e⁺e⁻ linear collider based on advances superconducting radio frequency technology. The proposed collider offers cost and AC power savings, smaller footprint (relative to the ILC), and could be built at Fermilab with an Interaction Region within the site boundaries. After the initial physics run at 250 GeV, the collider could be upgraded either to higher luminosity or to higher (up to 500 GeV) energies. If the ILC could not be realized in Japan in a timely fashion, the HELEN collider would be a viable option to build a Higgs factory in the U.S.

The International Linear Collider (Report to Snowmass 2021)

The International Linear Collider (ILC) is on the table now as a new global energy-frontier accelerator laboratory taking data in the 2030s. The ILC addresses key questions for our current understanding of particle physics. It is based on a proven accelerator technology. Its experiments will challenge the Standard Model of particle physics and will provide a new window to look beyond it. This document brings the story of the ILC up to date, emphasizing its strong physics motivation, its readiness for construction, and the opportunity it presents to the US and the global particle physics community.

U.S. National Accelerator R&D Program on Future Colliders

Future colliders are an essential component of a strategic vision for particle physics. Conceptual studies and technical developments for several exciting future collider options are underway internationally. In order to realize a future collider, a concerted accelerator R&D program is required. The U.S. HEP accelerator R&D program currently has no direct effort in collider-specific R&D area. This shortcoming greatly compromises the U.S. leadership role in accelerator and particle physics. In this white paper, we propose a new national accelerator R&D program on future colliders and outline the important characteristics of such a program.

Optimization of the Booster Tuner Confguration

The PIP-II upgrade will increase the initial injection energy of beam particles in the booster ring. This will lead to a direct increase in power dissipation in the radio-frequency cavity tuners. The goal of this project is to develop a way to design more optimal tuner configurations to reduce their power consumption while maintaining all of the PIP-II era constraints.

Topical Group on Application and Industry Community Engagement Frontier Snowmass 2021 (Summary Report)

HEP community leads and operates cutting-edge experiments for the DOE Office of Science which have challenging sensing, data processing, and computing requirements that far surpass typical industrial applications. To make necessary progress in the energy, material, and fundamental sciences, development of novel technologies is often required to enable these advanced detector and accelerator programs. Our capabilities include efficient co-design, which is a prerequisite to enable the deployment of advanced techniques in a scientific setting where development spans from rapid prototyping to robust and reliable production scale. This applies across the design spectrum from the low level fabrication techniques to the high level software development. It underpins the requirement for a holistic approach of innovation that accelerates the cycle of technology development and deployment. The challenges set by the next generation of experiments requires a collaborative approach between academia, industry and national labs. Just a single stakeholder will be unable to deliver the technologies required for the success of the scientific goals. Tools and techniques developed for High Energy Physics (HEP) research can accelerate scientific discovery more broadly across DOE Office of Science and other federal initiatives and also benefit industry applications.
