WBS 1.1.1 200MHZ RF Power SystemWBS 1.1.1.2 Modulator
3 different modulator designs, each with detailed simulations, costing and timeframe
CEC – Solid State Modulator with 48 stages coupled via HV transformer
• Total cost between $5.9 - 9.6M SLAC – Marx Modulator with two different 4kV stage types (10 Main
stages & 5 vernier stages, both 4kV) • Total cost ~ $4.5M
Fermilab – Marx Modulator with three different 950 Volt stage types (40 Main stages, 12 regulating stages, and one adjustable stage)
• Total cost ~$4.36M
Technical design reviewed in August 2012 special consideration given for the modulator slew rate (15kV/us),
beam tilt (+/-10kV), and flat top regulation (+/- 25 Volts)
Based on cost, ability to strength multi-lab collaborations, adaptability to powering a multi-beam klystron, overall design and scheduling, the CEC design was dropped in favor of continuing engineering effort on both the SLAC and Fermilab Marx modulators during FY13
SLAC proposes engineering study to build a lower voltage two cell prototype for design testing $75k
Fermilab proposed and started the design of a lower voltage 10 cell modulator prototype ($40k materials plus labor)

Current PIP Budget Profile / RLS (Being Updated)

Limited Labor in FY12Reduction of FY13 by > 50%Forecasted FY14 reduction = delaysOutlying years – better but uncertain
Fully Burdened Costs
Issues • WBS 1.3 RFQ – Task completes when commissioning starts
FY12 was end of M&S – looks like we do not need additional funds Only labor remaining – about 10 people until mid November
• WBS 1.1 Linac Transformer did not get installed due to complexity with size
• Will need to add some funding for install• Will need to find a good install date once solution is decided
Klystron was partially paid for – still need to move 600k into task Still pursuing new modulator (7835) effort until HLRF path is defined Linac Optics – loss of people – need committed long term effort
• WBS 1.2 Booster Cavity Refurbishment – Labor & Time constraints Booster shielding still needs resolution Booster Rep rate limit – still unresolved and require testing Booster has not found a ferrite that meets our High μ need Booster Optics – need to replace Grad student and additional work

Protons Per HourBefore Shutdown and PIP Goal
Protons Per Hour
Booster beam flux willbe limited by cycle rate and loses. Cycle intensity will be pushed higher as allowed by loss limits and user requests.

Collimation system – improvementTask completes in FY14 Q1
Lattice correction/workTask is expected to end FY17This effort is never-ending and isBased upon beam requirements
Linac Laser Notching SystemTask end date is FY15 Q2
Booster Cogging upgradeTask end date is FY15 Q1(Most likely FY14Q1)

Flux will scale with Cycle Rate
Budget Impact Mitigation / Collaboration
• It has been proposed that the budget impacts could be mitigated with help from institutions involved with experiments
Easiest way is to just transfer a whole lot of money, but we realize that is unlikely
• We have identified two concrete ways contributions could be made Students/postdocs on beam physics issues
• RFQ commissioning, linac optics, booster optics & instabilities, dampers, laser notcher, rf system development, rf instrumentation
• Need volunteers who are at Fermilab and can contribute at least ~ 0.5 FTE-yr to be useful
University machining• Some success with this in the past• University shops can be available at an inexpensive rate• Many PIP areas require various levels of machining / fabrication• Need volunteers and a streamlined method for processing the work (MOUs? POs?
Bidding?)
Model – Outside Involvement
• Previous model – mid 00s One liaison on lab side (Prebys)
• Projects in Linac, Booster, Main Injector One liaison on experimental side (Michael)
• Activity form MINOS & MiniBooNE institutions
• Model for this interaction PIP only? AD-wide?
• Liaison from PIP? Numerous experiments
• Single liaison? One from each experiment?
• Mutual benefit PIP: Inexpensive machining and scientific help Universities: business for their shops, topics for students
• Also need to develop some reward structure within experiments (service tasks, shift credit)

Booster RF Work Timetable
Additional 2-3 techs will allow two tasks going in parallel.A total of 5 skilled techs, we could reasonably turn cavities around in the ~6-7 week range.
Currently we are planning for 10 weekper cavity refurb. The first three cavitiestook much longer – thebest took 11 weeks.
