Fermilab: An engine of innovation and economic growth around the heartland

Fermilab is America’s premier laboratory for particle physics and accelerator research

• Fundamental Discovery Science. High Energy Physics Research

• We build and operate High Power (MW), High reliability Accelerators. “Mecca of accelerator experts”. Funded by DOE.

• Largest U.S. Accelerator complex, 6800 acre site, ~$380M/yr budget, > 2200 users. Next big project: Long Baseline Neutrino Facility

• Economy: In FY 2015, Fermilab spent $155.6 million in the US to purchase good and services across 47 states and DC. In Illinois alone, $78 million. • Research: 1830 scientists from 153 US institutions in 39 states, DC, Puerto Rico. • Education: We partner with educators through local school, college university students in high-tech research and development. 5915 visitors, 16213 students involved in activities, 1000 interns We are preparing the next generation STEM workforce.

Elusive neutrinos to invisible hand: Accelerators market is growing and exploding into emerging industries

• About 30,000 accelerators are in use world wide

– Sales of accelerators > $ 2 B /yr and growing – Accelerators touch over $ 500B/yr in products – Major Impact on our economy, health, and well being

– Enormous potential in the additive manufacturing market

Sector Opportunities Industrial • Next generation semiconductor fabrication

• 3D metal printing • Materials transformation/processing • Accelerator driven chemistry

Health • Accelerator-driven medical isotope production • Particle beam cancer therapy

Security • Non-invasive and stand-off inspection
