  • Advisor Input Part 2
    Paul O’Connor Dear Ian and Marcel, Here is the input you requested on the Instrumentation Task Force topics. I have confined my comments to the instrumentation needs of High Energy Physics, although at a multipurpose lab like BNL we see quite significant overlap with other disciplines, particularly photon science and medical imaging. 1. National Instrumentation Board It's unclear what authority this body could have. Perhaps a better model would be an advisory panel to the DOE and NSF or a sub-panel of HEPAP. Coordination with NP and BES programs may be more effective. 2. Targeted Resources at National Labs I support the idea of dedicating a fraction of each labs' LDRD funding to leading-edge instrumentation development. In addition, Increased support for dedicated detector instrumentation groups at the labs is also needed. The more common model, engineering support organizations whose funding comes from charge-back to programs, makes it difficult to develop and sustain the talent and equipment resources needed to respond to next-generation instrumentation needs. 3. National Instrumentation fellowships Few university physics departments promote talented students to follow instrumentation-related courses of study. There are some instances in which a MS in Instrumentation is offered to grad students who fail Ph.D. qualifying exams. The sense that instrumentation is a path for less-qualified students certainly does not promote the development of the next generation of talented instrumentalists. A suitably prestigious fellowship program could help reverse this trend, in conjunction with the Instrumentation schools. 4. Instrumentation schools Of the topics listed for the task force this is one that I most strongly support.

During her September 27-28 visit to Fermilab for an onsite DOE review of the laboratory, Dresselhaus, director of the Department of EnergyÕs Office of Science, spoke with respect and affection of the professor she knew during her years as a University of Chicago graduate student, She referred often to FermiÕs legendary concern for graduate students and young physicists. Comes to ItÕs a concern she clearly shares. ÒYoung people are excited about high-energy physics,Ó Dresselhaus said, Òbut there are serious career problems for youth. This is not just a Fermilab problem, but a problem for high-energy physics generally. It can be hard to Fermilab envision a career when there is such a long lead time for experiments. The community will have to address this.Ó As a step in that direction, she began her laboratory visit with a Òfocus groupÓ of Fermilab graduate students and young physicists, to hear what was on their minds and to assure them of her support. The students responded enthusiastically.
