Leptogenesis• “Archeological evidence:”
– No electroweak baryogenesis
– CPV in light, left n
– Lepton number violation

• Longer baseline
– 8101300km
• Larger detector
– 2 x 100 kt Water
– 2 x 17 kt Liquid Ar
• Next generation q13, CPV experiments
• Broad physics program– Oscillations
– Astrophysics
– Proton decay
• Scope of each will depend on detector choice

World’s greatest antimatter factory

Will be repurposed for muon production but there is still interesting physics that
may be unique to this facility

Kaons

Same motivation for FCNC B and K programs
Difference is the size of the SM ‘background’

Charged lepton flavor program
17/24
An observation of charged lepton flavor violation expected in the next decade implies existence of a new mixing matrix.
Expect same as quarks, neutrinos: multi-decade program to determine 4 parameters of the matrix

• Follow up of BNL experiment but better:– Reuse the storage ring
– 10x longer decay channel
– Segmented calorimeters
– Tracking
– >20x statistics, >2x less systematics
• Coupled with a world wide program to interpret the measurement

B. Casey, FPCP 2011
EDMs• e EDM:
– Can amplify signal using high Z Alkali metals
• Outer electron is in s-wave: size of electron becomes size of atom.
• Factor ~1000 enhancement for Francium
– Project X nuclear physics facility: copious production of desired heavy isotopes
• m EDM:– EDM tilts precession plane of muons in a
storage ring
• Factor 100 improvement possible with New g-2 experiment
• Extra factor 10000 possible with dedicated storage ring in Project X muon facility

• Fermilab is planning a diverse neutrino and targeted rare process program that covers many of the most important low energy observables
• In several cases, Fermilab is the best place to perform these experiments– Beam power + duty factor
– In many, it is the only place to perform these measurements to high precision due to unique features of Project X
• The program will play an integral role in interpreting LHC results, will push the envelope in precision detector technology, and will provide unique opportunities to grad students and post docs.
