The DOE HEP program in FY 2006
Overall HEP budget and priorities in FY 2006:
Tevatron and B-factory will be fully supported LHC preparations will be fully supported A reasonable level of support has to be maintained for the core
research program in the universities and laboratories Investment for near and long term new initiatives (including
International Linear Collider R&D) should grow Any new initiatives will have to come from re-direction DOE has decided not to proceed with BTeV

Cryogenic Dark Matter Search
Purpose: direct detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPS)
Location - Soudan Mine in Minnesota
Data-taking: Started in 2003 with full operations starting in April 2005.
First results released May’04:
…set the world's lowest exclusion limits on the WIMP cross section, ruling out a significant range of neutralino supersymmetric models.

Gamma Ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) Mission
Primary Instrument: Large Area Telescope (LAT)- Collaboration between NASA, DOE, France, Italy, Japan, Sweden – managed at SLAC.- Has had technical problems since baseline set in July 2003 & needs additional funds.- DOE’s contribution will increase by $3M and has been capped at $45M.- In the process of rebaselining the DOE scope/cost now – remaining scope will be
providing a well defined deliverable (data acquisition electronics and systems engineering) within the cap.
- Has changed NASA/DOE relationship
Measurement of high energy gamma rays from space - Energy and direction of gamma rays from 20 MeV to 300 GeV over wide field of view - launch in 2007

AMS - Alpha Magnetic Spectrometerw/NASA + foreign partners
• search for dark matter, missing matter & antimatter on the International Space Station
• Prototype (AMS-01) took data on STS-91 in 1998
• AMS-02 fabrication complete in 2005
• Launch and deployment on ISS currently planned for 2008.

Dark Energy – Planning & Future
Developed DOE/NASA Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM) plan for a joint space-based mission – plan released 11/03 Science Definition Team formed; meetings 11/04 and 2/05
Purpose: lay out the level 1 science requirements of a space-based dark energy mission
JDEM is a high priority (tie for 3rd place) in DOE’s Facilities for the Future of Science 20 Year Plan JDEM & Large Survey Telescope (LST) are highest priority in the Interagency Physics of the Universe
report
Current Work: Supernova Cosmology Project (SCP) – continuing ground and HST measurements to collect
statistics over large redshift range Nearby Supernova Factory (SNFactory) – large sample of nearby supernovae to study
properties in detail
R&D efforts & planning continuing R&D activities for SNAP — a concept for JDEM, using supernovae Dark Energy Survey (DES) requesting R&D support – new camera for Blanco 4m telescope at CTIO - using
galaxy cluster counting & spatial clustering of galaxies Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) requesting R&D support – using weak lensing

DOE HEP Future Planning
In order to inform the Department of OHEP’s intent to pursue several new scientific topics, we plan to prepare draft requests for approval CD-0 “Statement of Mission Need”.→ These are all for “medium-sized” proposals.
Neutrino experiments such as: reactor-based neutrino experiment to measure θ13
off-axis accelerator-based neutrino experiment to measure θ13 & resolve mass hierarchy
neutrino-less double beta decay experiment to probe the Majorana nature of neutrinos
Astrophysics: Underground experiment to search for direct evidence of dark matter Ground-based dark energy experiment
This process will be in parallel with a Scientific Advisory Group process that will recommend which proposals to pursue in these areas.
