Joint Photon Sciences Institute Planning


Joint Photon Sciences Institute (JPSI)

• A new initiative in photon sciences to leverage the unique capabilities of NSLS-II

• Strengthen the Laboratory's case to have NSLS-II sited at Brookhaven

• Previous New York State Governor George Pataki committed $30 million for the JPSI building


Mission of JPSI

• Develop and enhance scientific programs that best utilize NSLS-II

• Develop enabling technologies to support JPSI programs that utilize NSLS-II

• Serve as a gateway for NSLS-II

• Educate and train the next generation of leaders in synchrotron research


Possible Models

1. Joint Institute for Neutron Sciences (JINS) at ORNL/UT, associated with Spallation Neutron Source (SNS)

2. Photon Ultra-fast Laser Science and Engineering (PULSE) at SLAC/Stanford, associated with Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS)


JINS

Joint Institute for Neutron Sciences (JINS) at ORNL/UT, associated with Spallation Neutron Source (SNS)

– One of the three institutes formed by UT as part of the bid to manage ORNL

– $6M State funding for the building (land transferred to state)

– Roles of JINS:• Science centers for SNS staff and UT• Focal point for UT students/faculties – providing offices, lab

spaces, sabbatical, summer leaves• Incubator of new ideas and collaborations


JINS (cont.)• Organization:

– Reports to vice chancellor for research at UT and ALD of Neutron Sciences at ORNL

– No permanent scientific staff– Joint appointments:

• ~ 50% are SNS staff• ~25% are staff from ORNL research programs• ~25% are UT faculty and researchers

• Operating funding: – Space charge and small amount of UT contractor fee

provide basic operating cost, estimated to be ~$750K– SNS provides $300K each to six science centers


PULSE

Photon Ultra-fast Laser Science and Engineering (PULSE) at SLAC/Stanford, associated with Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS)

•Established in 2004 to exploit the scientific opportunities offered by the world’s first hard x-ray Free Electron Laser

•Role of PULSE:Perform research in ultra-fast materials, condensed matter physics, AMO, physical chemistry, structural biology, electron beams and x-ray laser physics (similar to a BNL research department)


PULSE (cont.)• Organization:

– Chartered as an independent laboratory of Stanford University (reports to V.P. for research), and a research division of the photon sciences directorate at SLAC

– PULSE director serves on LCLS scientific advisory committee– Membership of the center:

• Stanford Faculty and research staff on the main campus and at SLAC whose main research effort lies in areas central to the mission of the Center

• Operating funding:– Block grant from DOE/BES (~$7- 8 M per year requested in

the renewal proposal for FY07-09)– Leverage funding from other sources


Comparing JINS, PULSE, and JPSI

• JINS and PULSE are closely associated with a single university campus and a new facility without a large existing user base

• SNS will have a substantial internal science program that JINS will leverage. LCLS will not – science programs will be concentrated in PULSE

• NSLS-II / JPSI is more like SNS / JINS, since NSLS-II will also have a substantial internal science program

• JPSI need not be restricted to association with a single university but instead provides a vehicle to engage the broader community in collaborative projects

–A large intellectual base exists within NY state institutions, BSA board universities, BNL research departments, and the NSLS user community for formulating synergistic relationships that will enable new science


Develop and Enhance Scientific Programs

1. Development of scientific initiatives to meet emergent opportunities:

- The extraordinary brightness of NSLS-II will enable major advances in a wide range of x-ray sciences, in particular x-ray imaging, the use of nanometer x-ray probes, and equilibrium/non-equilibrium dynamics

- Interdisciplinary research, in particular the interface between physical and life sciences, energy, bridging applied and basic research


Develop and Enhance Scientific Programs (cont.)

2. Development of novel instruments and experimental techniques:

- NSLS-II will have a sizable staff with diverse technical and scientific expertise, a unique resource

- Collaborate with universities, industries, research resources and BNL research departments to optimize the utilization of their expertise within the facility and to develop new instruments and experimental techniques for new scientific programs


Enabling Technologies

1. Development of detectors:- Most of NSLS-II experiments will be detector limited- Detectors should be integrated into the design of all scientific programs

at the NSLS-IINote: - BNL has a world class detector program- NSLS has initiated a small, but growing effort- NSLS/Instrumentation is contracted to build detectors for LCLS- Established collaboration with IBM recently- BES is likely to increase funding in detector R&D


Enabling Technologies (cont.)

2. Development of optics:- A wide range of optics will be needed to fully utilized the

extraordinary brightness of NSLS-II- NSLS-II project optics R&D program is very focused and has

limited duration, but continued development of optics is planned for operating NSLS-II facility

Detector and Optics R&D infrastructure and equipment provided by NSLS-II as well as fabrication capabilities at CFN will be made available to researchers from universities, industries, and BNL research departments to enhance existing and enable new scientific programs


Gateway for NSLS-II

1. Education and Outreach- Although 1/3 of the NSLS users are from New York, many

institutions have not utilized NSLS- Targeted effort is required- Significant resources are needed to bring in new research groups


Gateway for NSLS-II

2. Opportunities to work with industry- 6-7 percent of NSLS users are from industry- No organized effort at the NSLS to work with industry- Opportunities to work with industries are there - Congressional visits by users indicate the importance of industrial

research


Training of Synchrotron Researchers

• Faculty whose research primarily uses a synchrotron play an essential role in training the next generation of synchrotron scientists who will become staff at SR facilities and industries, as well as faculty

• They are also essential in introducing other faculty to SR facilities• These faculty are likely to participate in JPSI scientific programs,

enabling technology development, and NSLS-II beamline development


JPSI Construction Project Management

• Work For Others (WFO) Project funded by NYS• Must follow DOE O 413.3A on construction project management per

WFO Order– Tailor with NYS and WFO requirements

• Plan to use Project Management & Support Infrastructure of NSLS-II for cost effectiveness

Preliminary JPSI Summary Schedule


JPSI Operations Assumptions

• JPSI begins full operations in FY2012• JPSI will not be a regular BNL Department w/ permanent staff

– All staff, including JPSI Director, would be joint appointments in JPSI, with their permanent home appointment in another BNL department or outside institution

– This supports the concept that JPSI is an intellectual incubator and allows teams to be assembled as required without the stove-pipe constraints of conventional dept structure

• ~ 150 individuals occupy the space~ 1/3 would be NSLS-II staff w/ joint appt in JPSI~ 1/3 would be full-time staff from other depts/institutions w/ joint appts in JPSI~ 1/3 would be post-docs, students, visitors, etc paid for out of JPSI research grants

• Base operating cost for JPSI would be covered by NSLS-II Operations funding– (Space, Fuel, Phones, Power, etc.)

• FWPs and grants would cover JPSI research programs and outreach efforts• Light Sources Directorate provides general operations support

– ESH&Q, Budget, Procurement, Facility Management, and other general support– Paid for by LS Directorate Organizational Burden on JPSI salaries

• Estimated at 8-9%, which is extremely cost effective


JPSI Estimated Base Operating Cost

Description Estimated FY12 Cost ($)

On-site Services 62 kPhones 150 kMaterials & Service Contracts 250 kElectric Power 233 kSpace & Fuel 1,252 kOther Direct Costs 35 kLaboratory Overheads 1,519 kTotal $ 3.50 M

Propose that entire $3.5M be covered by NSLS-II Operations FundingCurrent plan (agreed to by DOE) is that NSLS-II will start early operations funding in FY12


JPSI Research Funding• Only needs to cover a fraction of member salaries in most cases since they

presumably already have separate funding thru their home dept/institution• Primarily covers post-docs, students, visitors, materials/supplies/travel• Very cost effective since base operating costs covered by NSLS-II and org

burden rate is very low• NSLS/NSLS-II/CFN/Core Program facilities and programs provide a base that

can be highly leveraged by modest JPSI research funding• NSLS-II detector, optics and other enabling technology R&D will be available to

support JPSI activities without requiring large capital investments or large permanent JPSI staff

• The expertise and infrastructure provided by these groups will be available to NY State institutions, BNL research programs, and NSLS-II users to initiate scientifically and technologically relevant research programs


Sources of JPSI Research and Outreach Funding

• New York State Funding– Education and outreach: Facilitate the access to NSLS-II by NY state

universities, research institutions and companies– Industrial research consortium: a group of dedicated staff to interface with

NY state industries. IBM and GE have expressed interest in joining

• DOE/BES research divisions and other DOE program funding – Collaborate with BNL research departments, universities, and industries– Incubator for high risk experimental technique development


Incubator for High Risk Experimental Techniques

Examples:• Nanometer resolution imaging of intrinsic inhomogeneity in condensed matter systems with

competing interactions– Scientific driver: BNL CMPMSD– Possible collaborators: Jacobsen Stony Brook, Fienup U. of Rochester– NSLS/NSLS-II: x-ray physics, instrumentation, detectors

• Applications of nano-focused x-rays and inelastic x-ray scattering to catalysis and energy problems

– Scientific driver: Catalysis consortium (Yeshiva, Delaware and BNL)– Possible collaborators: USB energy science center– NSLS/NSLS-II: optics, x-ray physics, instrumentation

• Development and application of X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy for dynamics studies– Scientific driver: Mochrie - Yale– Possible collaborators: BNL CMPMSD, Chu/Hsiao Stony Brook– NSLS/NSLS-II: optics, detectors, instrumentation


Notional Organization Structure


Jump Start JPSI

• Leverage NSLS and NSLS-II R&D staff and facilities to jump-start JPSI

• Explore the use of nanometer x-ray probes, coherence• Grow industrial users, in particular target industries within New York

State• Outreach to New York State institutions• Need seeding funding from the laboratory

– Support for Outreach Professional, 3 postdocs, workshops, travel assistance, materials & supplies

– $600k to $1M per year for three years during FY09-FY11
