BES Mission:BES Mission: To support fundamental research to understand, predict, and ultimately control matter and energy at the electronic, atomic, and molecular levels in order to provide the foundations for new energy technologies and to support DOE missions in energy, environment, and national security.

Priorities:Priorities: Create a new paradigm for the design of materials, especially those related to the efficient production, storage,

transmission, and use of energy Through observation and manipulation of matter at the atomic and molecular scales, achieve mastery of material

syntheses and chemical transformations relevant to real-world energy systems Understand and control fundamental interactions between matter and energy, especially at the nanoscale Conceive, construct, and operate open-access scientific user facilities to probe materials at the limits of time,

space, and energy resolution

Program Planning Factors for FY 2010:Program Planning Factors for FY 2010: Significant effort will be spent in establishing the EFRCs during their first full year of operation and in

overseeing new facilities (LCLS) and a major construction project (NSLS-II). Efforts in FY 2010 are informed by the following Scientific Workshops and Reports:

BESAC Basic Research Needs workshop series (11 workshops from 2003-2007) BESAC Energy Grand Challenges report (2007) BESAC New Science for a Secure and Sustainable Energy Future (2008)

R&D coordination with DOE applied technology programs in areas such as electrical energy storage, solar energy utilization, biofuels, and fuel cells

Research (3 modalities):Research (3 modalities): Core research supporting single investigators and small groups is continued. This includes research addressing

the 5 key science challenges from the BESAC Grand Challenges report: (1) quantum control of electrons in atoms, molecules, and materials; (2) basic atomic architecture of matter and directed assembly; (3) emergence and collective phenomena; (4) energy and information transfer on the nanoscale; and (5) matter far from equilibrium.

Energy Frontier Research Centers (EFRCs), initiated late in FY 2009, see their first full year of operation in FY 2010. The 46 new EFRCs assemble scientists from multiple disciplines to conduct basic research to establish the scientific foundations for new energy technologies in a wide variety of topical areas.

Energy Innovation Hubs are initiated in the areas of Fuels from Sunlight and Batteries and Energy Storage. Hubs assemble purpose-driven teams to address the basic science, technology, economic, and policy issues needed to address the energy topic. Each is funded at $25,000,000/year for an initial 5 year-period with one-time funding of $10,000,000 provided for start-up, excluding new construction.

Facilities:Facilities: Scientific User Facility Operations are fully funded in FY 2010. More than 10,000 scientists and engineers from

academia, national laboratories, and industry use the BES facilities annually. The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, the world’s first hard x-ray

coherent light source, begins operations in FY 2010. First light was seen at LCLS in April within a few hours of the start of the first commissioning run and with only about 1/3 of the undulators in place! Wow! First science starts in the fall of 2009.

The National Synchrotron Light Source II at Brookhaven National Laboratory continues construction, including the largest component of the project—the building that will house the storage ring.

The Standard Model is a theory devised to explain how sub-atomic particles interact with each other. There are 16 particles that make up this model – 12 matter particles and 4 force carrier particles. But they would have no mass if considered

alone. The proposed Higgs boson explains why these particles have mass. Particles acquire their mass through interactions with an all-pervading

field, called the Higgs field, which is carried by the Higgs boson. There are now signs that the Standard Model will have to be extended by adding new particles. 23

Research Support Building and Infrastructure Modernization, SLACPreliminary TEC Range: $80M - $96M

This project will integrate the lab’s Accelerator Physics community across programmatic boundaries and will provide more uniform service (training, ES&H, business services) for the lab-wide user community. Project scope includes the construction of a modern office building for technical staff currently dispersed throughout the site in aged trailers and other inefficient locations and modernization of three facilities for operations staff supporting the research mission.

Renovate Science Labs 2, BNLPreliminary TEC Range: $45M - $50M

This project will upgrade and rehabilitate obsolete systems in Buildings 510 (Physics) and 555 (Chemistry). Although the basic core and shell construction of these buildings is sound, the lab and office spaces and their utilities and environmental support systems are obsolete.

Energy Sciences Building, ANLPreliminary TEC Range: $84.5M - $95M

Scope includes construction of a new multidisciplinary Energy Sciences Building that will provide efficient and modern research space to serve an interdisciplinary science community working to discover and develop alternative approaches to energy production, storage and utilization.

SCPD Mission:SCPD Mission: To provide and sustain a skilled Federal workforce to provide oversight for the $5B Office of Science (SC) portfolio and the 10 DOE Laboratories that report to the SC.

SC Headquarters (HQ) staff is responsible for scientific program strategic planning, program budget formulation, program implementation and execution, and management across the broad sweep of scientific disciplines and program offices.

Site Office personnel, located at each of the 10 DOE/SC laboratories, are responsible for the day-to-day oversight of the management and operating contract performance.

The Integrated Support Center, operated in partnership by the Chicago and Oak Ridge Offices, provides administrative, business, and technical support across the entire SC enterprise.

Federal staff at the Office of Scientific and Technical Information fulfill the Department’s legislative mandate to provide public access to the results of DOE research programs.

Program Planning Factors for FY 2010Program Planning Factors for FY 2010:: Increasing workload as a result of (1) increased SC funding from the FY 2009 Omnibus Appropriation; (2) the

FY 2009 ARRA funding; (3) additional oversight required of construction projects; and (4) significant additional responsibilities asked of SC by Secretary Chu for interactions with the DOE technology offices.

17 Committee of Visitors reports since FY 2002 have called for additional Program Managers and support staff at HQ for virtually all Program Offices.

SC succession planning—31% of SC employees become retirement eligible by FY 2010. Benchmark and Workload/Workforce Analysis Studies are underway to compare SC organizational structure and

budgets to a comparable government scientific agency (i.e., NIH) and identify relationships between workload indicators, staffing requirements, and budget allocations.
