1 Financial Status (FS):UK

• £7.5M commitment OST+PPARC+CCLRC+ £750k working margin (wm:10% attributed to UK tasks)

+ £1.5M contingency (OST control) = £9.7M– Spend to date is light (<£1.5M)– Rapidly changing

• Move from design to manufacture

2FS:UK

• Task budget break down:

• Control of scope: – PSAG/CMPB/PPARC-OsC

3FS:UK

• Calls on UK contingency:• Oct’05: £720k for solenoid cryogenics

– £287k over budget (despite guide price)– re-evaluated cooling budget;

» freed £200k (but kept original c&wm : risk)– £90k call on contingency (plus £43k from wm)– Accepted by PPARC: funds drawn from OST

• Done under change control (interim CMPB)– painful process

» needed effort and caused delay!• Lesson learnt: danger of single response tenders

4FS:UK

• Potential calls on UK contingency:– Shielding

• Cause: escalation of requirement over plan (negotiating)• Remedy: Shielding available on site at DL

– (RAL’s sister laboratory)

– negotiations in progress• Unbudgeted items:

• Steering magnets, Q35 refurb. (~£50k within wm on BL)• Note: Achieved £50k saving on import of decay solenoid from PSI –

kept within beam line budget.

• Staff:– Additional local DAQ effort needed

• Potential extra because of stretch of phase 1.

5Additional Contributions:UK

• Risk Reduction:• £92k additional funds to help tracker solenoid:

End-of-year (WFL) funds– Mechanism: UK paid for items in US & Jp

budget: need to realise benefit » US: released existing MRI funds ; » Jp: Bid

• £30k risk borne by ISIS for phase 2– Procure tube bases for RF power source

6Current Procurement:UK

– Cryogenics for decay solenoid (on order)– Hydride bed (on order)– RF test stand HV system (parts in build)– RF test stand solid state amplifier (on order)– Tubes for the test stand driver (300kW) amplifier – Beam line power supplies (tender posted)– Cryo-coolers for 4 tracker VLPC cryostats – Parts for VLPC cryostats - commit through FNAL – Fibre (clear and scintillating) – Tube bases for RF TH116 (about to order) - Phase 2

7 FS:UK

• Phase 2: unfunded– Baseline plan has been seen by the PPARC-Science

committee

• Infrastructure (RF power, hydrogen systems)• Focus Coil module, completed tracker

– “£3.3M”– Additional aspirations/synergies

• Contribution to cavity:– Engineering, surface treatments

'Official' G/W 2/3, SC, and Council statement:"Phase 2: To be completed in financial years 2007/08 to 2008/09:― Construction of UK contributions (infrastructure, focus-coil modules and the fulltracker) to the subsequent stages of the full experiment (£3.3M)."

8 FS:US

• US: – DoE

– NSF• Tracker electronics• Spectrometer solenoid superconductor• Tracker solenoid contributions• CKOV-I est. $32k to $42k depending on design

9 FS:US

• NFMCC: Current FY– Programme: Annual budget ~ $0.7M for MICE– Baseline plan:

• RF cavity & coupling coil modules (“RFCC”, 2 ea.)• Absorber windows• Tracker collaboration

– D0 contribution of AFE-IIt boards (in return for a MICE effort & test stand)

– Spectrometer solenoid• Immediacy of need• Current funds marginal for two units; okay if spread over two years

– Cavity: initially concentrating on MTA work (MUCOOL)– Coupling coil: additional bid to NSF (MRI): CC needed for MUCOOL

• Bid to DOE for CC not funded this year

10 FS:US

• NFMCC for MICE: Future years– Programme: budget bids for MICE

• ~$1.0M would allow continuation at current level• ~$1.4M additional bid to support CC design & build…

– 5 year funding plan • Dependent on response to MuTAC/MRI Bids etc• Aspirational budget to bring MICE to stage V

• NSF – MRI funds award: 2006 $750k

• Tracker electronics• Spectrometer Solenoid Magnets
