Description
As the highest energy collider in the world, the Tevatron
has been the centerpiece of Fermilab's physics program
for more than 20 years. This will all change with the
imminent startup of CERN's LHC.
This talk will describe how the lab plans to redefine its
mission in terms of the "intensity frontier", with a program
focusing on neutrino physics, precision measurements and
cutting edge accelerator R&D. The key component of this
plan is an intense new proton source, referred to as
"Project X". Project X and its associated physics program
will be described in detail in the context of related
programs worldwide. Also discussed will be intermediate
plans which will support that lab's physics programs
while Project X is being designed and constructed.
