Charge: To advise the MIT Dean of Science on the best approach to the development of a robust and sustainable national user program to optimize the incentives for participation and the inclusion of a diverse community.
MIT X-ray Laser User Facility
A true x-ray laser will have huge science impact
-- today no x-ray source is coherent
-- today no laser has much power for 30 nm
The International Context
• DESY XFEL Hamburg, Germany (approved)
-Based on superconducting linac (20 GeV)
-Five undulator beamlines with 10 stations
-Tunable 6.4 nm to 0.1 nm, 100 fs pulses
-Seeding under study
-Cost 709 MEU, Schedule >2010
• DESY, TTF II, 1 GeV (approved)
• SCSS, Spring-8, Japan, 1 GeV (app’d)
• BESSY, Berlin, 2 GeV (proposed)
• SPARX, Frascati, Italy, 2.5 GeV (prop’d)
• 4GLS, Daresbury, UK, (prop’d)
nm
The National Context
• Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC-Based on 15 GeV SLAC Cu linac -Limited to 120 Hz rep rate-One undulator beamline with 4-6 stations-Tunable 1 nm to 0.15 nm, 250 fs unseeded pulses-Cost 278M$, Schedule 2009
• LCLS II project includes additional beamlines-Recently deferred until 2009 by BESAC-New superconducting linac may be more attractive
• LBNL LUX concept-Requires recirculation due to site constraints- > 1 nm
Outlook
• Europe is likely to have full-spectrum coverage with many stations by 2010.
• US will have only one SASE beamline at LCLS• MIT/Bates project would qualitatively change the
outlook• Maintain and advance US leadership, particularly
with transform-limited applications• The educational and scientific payoff make this
project an ideal match to MIT, NSF, and the US

MIT Commitment
• MIT has embraced the x-ray laser concept exclusively for the future of Bates Laboratory
• The existing 80-acre parcel of land and its existing infrastructure will be made available
• MIT will work with the DOE and NSF to insure that no legacy costs are incurred
• As the owner and steward of the site, MIT will carry out the responsibility to insure full and timely compliance with NEPA and secure appropriate construction permits
Spatial Scales Temporal Scales
MIT X-ray Laser is Science Driven
Structural Biology Gregory Petsko and Dagmar Ringe, Brandeis
Ultra-high Resolution– Precise location and identification– Hydrogen atoms– Atomic motions
Time-Resolved– Watch proteins work
Single Molecule/Particle– Structure/function without crystals
• Unique Opportunity to develop an accelerator science and technology curriculum
• Remarkable spectrum of engineering technologies
• Would be the ultimate laser laboratory
• Full integration with CMSE programs for K-12 and High School teachers including RET and the Content Institute
• Expanded opportunities for UROP, TEAL, iLAB, etc.
• Design study and construction would provide unique one-time educational experiences in many disciplines: environment, management, architecture, etc.
MIT Commitment to Education Program
• As a premier educational and research institution, MIT will use its resources, together with those of the NSF to achieve maximum educational impact
• MIT will plan the development of a graduate accelerator science and technology curriculum
• MIT has been an innovator in exploring new teaching concepts, such as UROP, REU, TEAL, iLAB, and outreach programs for high school teachers
3-year study plan
NSF Funding of Major Projects
• Design Study will be funded thru MPS/DMR• Construction Project would be funded thru MRE
(Major Research Equipment ) account• NSB supports increase from $130M to $350M• FY04 President’s Budget has $200M for MRE• Strong Congressional support for increases• Existing and “backlog” projects can be launched
by FY06, leaving budget headroom for X-ray Laser by FY07 at a $300-400M level
The MIT X-ray Laser Project•A National User Facility: 10-30 beams
•Wavelength range 100-0.1 nm
•Integrated laser seeding for full coherence
•Pulses: t=-1000 fs; 3-0.003eV
•Pulse power of up to 1 mJ
•Pulse rates of 1 kHz or greater
MIT/ Bates Laboratory
