Collaboration Meeting
December 10, 2001
It’s so good to see everyone again
It’s been almost 6 months – much too long!
Many thanks to our Paris colleagues for all their work
toward the ill-fated September meeting.
Support from European colleagues meant a lot to
those of us here.
We’ve already had a great week of workshops to
make up for the gap.
Bldg 280 is back to normal --no place to sit down.
All this enthusiasm makes me realize how privileged
we are!
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 2
We had lots to celebrate in Paris
Great physics results and presentations at the
summer conferences
Outstanding PEPII/BaBar performance
approaching 300 pb-1/day
200 – 250 pb-1/day is common; many “double-
design” days
BaBar efficiency is consistently ~ 97-98 %

December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 8
Moving Days Begin Jan 14
BaBarians will be concentrated in new Research Office
Building and Bldg 280.
New building is approaching completion.
First allocation of offices has been completed
We beg for your cooperation and understanding
Adjustments will be made based on actual usage during next few
months
Moves will take place before next Collaboration meeting,
so you must pack your possessions before leaving, unless
you’ll be here the last 2 weeks of January.
Boxes will be available later this week. Announcements to follow.
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 9
A critical meeting for BaBar
Numerous operations issues
longest run in our history
enormous amount of data
Flood of analyses about to produce new results for
the winter circuit.
Keep to our standards of quality and timeliness.
We have very tough competition.
Budget stress.
BaBar is a great success story at a time when our field badly
needs one, so we continue to receive strong support in these
times of fiscal peril
Other needs around the world are putting huge pressure on
dwindling budgets, so we must be as lean as possible.
Time to seriously address the post-500 fb-1 era.

Computing
Just able to keep up with data.
Most expensive improvement from now to 2007.
Main reason: Luminosity increasing faster than Moore’s Law
Storage cost is the largest item
Multiple “Tier A” sites (IN2P3 in 2001, INFN, UK in 2002) to
share load, and evolve toward a GRID-like configuration
IN2P3 has already relieved a significant load from SLAC
Model is evolving, will be reviewed this spring
OPR and Reprocessing:
> 500 pb-1/day regularly when doing normal runs
Hardware problem with linux machines delaying changeover
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 15
Detector Prognosis
With due care and feeding,
most detector systems will work
up to ~2 x 1034 and should last for several years.
Drift CHamber; DIRC; and E M Calorimeter
radiation aging tests show they should last
Significant modifications in electronics likely to be needed
Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT)
Spare modules funded and under construction
Radiation damage tests indicate lifetime >4Mrad (twice design)
Instrumented Flux Return (IFR)
Muon ID will be improved by adding material
Upgrade forward endcap in 2002
Concerns because of decreasing RPC efficiency
Big problem for barrel if not remediated. Will address it in 2004
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 16
Silicon Vertex Tracker aging tests
G.Calderini
Chips have been
irradiated at SLAC and
LBL up to 4Mrad
• Both chips and silicon still
perform well.
• Minor gain losses and noise
increase, do not impact
physics performance
• Results predict life of
SVT over original
estimates by factor 2
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 17
Long-term schedule
PEP-II Luminosity should steadily increase to ~ 2 1034
by ~2006, without long disruptive shutdowns.
Improved prognosis for SVT suggests an attractive
scenario: replace SVT modules on beam plane in 2004,
after which it should last till ~2007.
We can fabricate more modules to replace the ones in the beam
plane again if needed.
Can rest of detector adapt to only one major intervention
( 4 months) before 2007?
DIRC, EMC appear to be OK.
IFR Barrel is a serious question, but it has to be resolved by 2004.
DCH – aging tests say it should last.
December 10, 2001 Collaboration Meeting 18
2007 and Beyond
It appears feasible to accumulate Ldt 1,000 fb-1
by 2010 with PEPII and BaBar
Program must be driven by physics – Direct CP and rare
decays will remain very promising directions.
To be ready to pursue hints of new physics, we need to
understand higher-L possibilities (10 35,1036 )
Must have competitive capabilities to LHCb and BTeV
White paper submitted to Snowmass
Round–Table discussion tomorrow afternoon
John Seeman, Yannis Karyotakis, Rafe Schindler, Marcello Giorgi,
and David Hitlin will present their views
Followed by 40 minutes of comments, and then by our reception
