Realization of an ElectronIon Collider – BNL View Steve Vigdor Workshop on Perturbative and Non-Perturbative Aspects of QCD at Collider Energies INT Sept. 13, 2010 “An EIC with polarized beams has been embraced by the U.S. nuclear science community as embodying the vision for reaching the next QCD frontier.” How can we realize this vision? Much of 2007 LRP is Well Under Way: 12 GeV upgrade under way – should be complete by 2014-15. FRIB had successful CD-1 review July 2010. Construction anticipated for ~2013-19. Much of 2007 LRP is Well Under Way: DUSEL Preliminary Design Report anticipated to NSF by end of CY2010, presentation to Science Board during 2011. Technology breakthrough (bunched-beam stochastic cooling) RHIC luminosity upgrade well under way, expected complete in 2013. Detector upgrades complete by 2015. Next (2013?) LRP Will Benefit from New LongRange Major Construction Project 1st un-numbered 2007 recommendation: Accelerator R&D, started with BNL, Jlab resources, now has ONP funding. Need detector R&D funds as well. However, there are no entitlements ! EIC will be an expensive facility. Major new construction ~2020 in parallel with operations of 3 major facilities (CEBAF, RHIC, FRIB) seems unrealistic. Something will have to give ! What is Needed for NP Community Endorsement of EIC? Compelling science vision, backed by plausible feasibility simulations for “golden experiments” this workshop and subsequent White Paper (necessary, but not sufficient!) Clear understanding of critical machine performance requirements Proofs of principle of beyond state-of-the-art accelerator & detector technology needed to achieve required performance Credible cost plan for 1st stage that addresses clear subset of science goals at ≲ $500M (OS guidance) for machine + detectors Timeline and plan that fits with likely ONP funding realities for coming decade (i.e., construction following FRIB, with large contribution from ongoing operations…) What is Needed for NP Community Endorsement of EIC? A clear path forward for both BNL and JLab A sufficiently strong and focused user community, not bifurcated along BNL /JLab fault lines EIC Important Extension of RHIC Science “Condensed matter physics with a force of a different color” Jody Wright What are the unique quantum many-body manifestations of a non-Abelian gauge theory? Are there lessons for other fundamental (e.g., EW) theories, that are harder to subject to laboratory investigation? 1) Does asymptotic freedom dense (in color charge) ideal gas QGP? Find “near-perfect” strongly correlated liquid behavior instead ! 2) Does rich vacuum structure sphalerons near QGP transition & local symmetry violation? Observed behavior consistent with local (chiral magnetic) P- and CPV; ~ B-violation @ EW phase transition? 3) Do gluon self-interactions universal saturated gluonic matter in hadrons and nuclei? Hints at RHIC, need EIC for definitive answer. EIC Science: Gluon-Dominated Cold Matter in e+A Search for supersymmetry @ LHC, ILC (?): seeking to unify matter and forces Electron-Ion Collider: reveal that Nature blurs the distinction Deep inelastic scattering @ HERA Gluons dominate the soft constituents of hadrons! But density must saturate… EIC probes weak coupling regime of very high gluon density, where gauge boson occupancy >> 1. All ordinary matter has at its heart an intense, semi-classical force field -- can we demonstrate its universal behavior? Track the transition from dilute parton gas to CGC? “See” confinement reflected in soft-gluon spatial distributions inside nuclei? EIC e + N Important Extension of Nucleon Structure Studies at HERA, RHIC, JLab,… DIS, -gluon fusion G(x > few 104) Bjorken sum rule test to ≲ 2% SIDIS for low-x sea-quark polarization and transverse spin studies More luminosity-hungry: Polarized DVCS, exclusive reactions + LQCD GPD’s map low-x transverse position-dep.

Proton tomography via exclusive x < 0.1 reactions x ~ 0.3 x ~ 0.8 BNL Planning Assumptions Strongest science case made for the eventual full EIC: e+A for low-x gluon densities, probing conjectured universal saturation surface ( need HI beams, s > 100 GeV, far forward coverage in both e and A directions) e+N DIS & SIDIS for nucleon spin structure in gluondominated regime, TMD’s, etc. ( need polarized beams) deep exclusive e+p for GPD’s, (2+1)-D imaging of proton wave fcn. ( need L ~ 1034, high-precision detectors) EW e+N program likely to still be relevant in mid-2020’s parton interactions & hadronization in cold matter But need to identify clear science deliverables for lower-s 1st facility stage… BNL Planning Assumptions Work on plan to allow straightforward upgrade path from 1st stage, but to incorporate starts on as much of the science program as possible in 1st stage (needed to keep strong user community engaged recent design advances) Fully utilize RHIC A, p beams and infrastructure Utilize RHIC detector infrastructure, halls, subsystems as possible to control costs Utilize BNL LDRD funds plus RHIC R&D funds to jumpstart accelerator and detector R&D where possible Work with JLab as possible to arrange collaborative approach to LRP eRHIC Design Under Active Consideration more IP’s reusing infrastructure + det. components for STAR, PHENIX? reduced cost easier upgrade path minimal environmental impact concerns IR design to reach 1034 luminosity eRHIC detector 2 SRF linac 1 -> 5 GeV per pass 4 (6) passes eRHIC-I eRHIC: energy of electron beam is increased from 5 GeV to 30 GeV by building up the linacs RHIC: 325 GeV p or 130 GeV/u Au with DX magnets removed eSTAR © V.

N.B. If both labs are not willing to participate in a downselection prior to LRP, then we must at least go into LRP with clear mechanism for making a subsequent selection. Q4 FY12: Update EIC Science White Paper with realizable EIC design(s), including cost range, performance goals, science deliverables and upgrade paths, in preparation for (assumed) Spring 2013 LRP resolution meeting. Quotes from Nov. 2009 EICAC Report on Science and Community Convergence • The [Fall 2010] INT Program should be used to articulate the theoretical motivation, but also to compare those goals with reality by examining the sensitivities of simulated experiments. An outcome should be the science / machine matrix discussed earlier. At the conclusion of the INT program, we can anticipate some follow-up event(s) in 2011 where the joint community agrees on the theme of a final White Paper. • The EIC Community appears to be made of two sub-groups, roughly associated with the BNL or JLab concepts for the machine…it is our opinion that there remains time for vigorous debate about scientific options and priorities; however, for full consideration at the next LRP, one coherent, joint-QCD-community request should be made. • To progress further, some assurance from lab managements would be useful, stating that, which ever facility scheme will be chosen in the end of the evaluation process, both laboratories are committed to making it a success together.

Quotes from EICAC Report on Facility Design & Strategy • The EICAC is impressed with the…work…on accelerator designs since the last meeting… the two laboratories are at very different levels of design maturity. • It is the growing view of several members of EICAC that as soon as possible a “down select” should be made…there is much R&D that needs to be done…addressing all the challenges of both [designs] is expensive and perhaps unwarranted. The highest priority on the facility side is to develop the JLAB design to a stage similar to where the BNL design is at present. • In terms of strategy…the EICAC feels that the proponents might consider aiming for the EIC facility from the beginning, with a medium-range performance scope and future upgrade opportunities. • It may…be wise to consider the possibility of more than one interaction region to satisfy these different [science and detector] requirements. This would also provide a natural way for different physics communities to group themselves. Quotes from EICAC Report on Accelerator R&D Priorities Highest priority: Design of JLab EIC High current (e.g. 50 mA) polarized electron gun Demonstration of high energy – high current recirculation ERL Beam-Beam simulations for EIC Polarized 3He production and acceleration Coherent electron cooling High priority, but could wait until decision made: Compact loop magnets Electron cooling for JLab concepts Traveling focus scheme (it is not clear what the loss in performance would be if it doesn’t work; it is not a show stopper if it doesn’t) Development of eRHIC-type SRF cavities Medium Priority: Crab cavities ERL technology development at JLAB Quotes from EICAC Report on Detector Development • The EICAC feels that there is no need at this point to carry out detailed GEANT simulations, but rather to study responses based on parameterizations. The trade-off between the resolutions and acceptances of the detectors on the one hand, and luminosity, polarization and beam energies on the other hand for the physics can be understood with these kinds of studies. • In a prioritized way, R&D suggested for the near term should begin to address the following areas: -Low-mass vertex-tracker/tracker, and integration of a TRD detector in the tracker -particle identification at mid-rapidity for particles with momenta up to 4 GeV, e.g., using DIRC technology -low cost photon detection, e.g., SiPMs -ion polarimeters • The EICAC considers it important that the detector R&D efforts are conducted jointly for MeRHIC and MEIC. Contacts with other communities like LHeC are also strongly encouraged. Quotes from EICAC Report on Path to “Down Select” • [At Fall 2010 INT Workshop]: i) For each of the two directions, it would be very useful to prepare a concrete list of the requested measurements (including the scientific motivation, kinematic region, required accuracy etc.); and/or ii) each of the two groups should investigate to what extent their scientific goals could be reached by the other machine (i.e. 'proton imaging' etc by the BNL design, 'saturation' etc by the JLab version). • …it would be useful to define a few sets of parameters (energy, luminosity, polarization) based on the expectations from each machine for simulation studies. Available space at the IR should also be defined. These can then be put together with detector designs to understand the physics capabilities for the signature (and other) measurements. These results should then be put together with expected cost, time scale for the accelerator development, and possibilities for future upgrades to higher energies and luminosity in determining which accelerator option is to be backed by the community.
