SRF for Muon Colliders

چکیده
Interest in the Muon Colliders is growing [1]. Electronpositron colliders beyond 2 TeV CM energy are likely to limited by background from beamstrahlung, and proton colliders beyond 20 TeV CM are likely to be limited by the sheer size of the multi-hundred km circumference. Being 200 times more massive than electrons, muons do not suffer from beamstrahlung limits. A 3 TeV muon collider is likely to fit on a site such as Fermilab. But muons are unstable. Problems from muon decay are the heat load, large detector background and a neutrino radiation hazard. The last adversity can be turned into the fortune of an intense neutrino source.

Coherent e + e − pair creation at high energy muon colliders . ∗
It is shown that at muon colliders with the energy in the region of 100 TeV the process of coherent pair creation by the muon in the field of the opposing beam becomes important and imposes some limitations on collider parameters. One of the main advantages of muon colliders is that the muon is much heavier than the electron and therefore the radiation (beamstrahlung) in beam collisions is supp...
متن کاملMuon Colliders: New Prospects for Precision Physics and the High Energy Frontier
An overview is given of muon collider technology and of the current status of the muon collider research program. The exciting potential of muon colliders for both neutrino physics and collider physics studies is then described and illustrated using self-consistent collider parameter sets at 0.1 TeV to 100 TeV center-of-mass energies.
متن کاملM ay 2 00 0 Neutrino Radiation Challenges and Proposed Solutions for Many - TeV Muon
Neutrino radiation is expected to impose major design and siting constraints on many-TeV muon colliders. Previous predictions for radiation doses at TeV energy scales are briefly reviewed and then modified for extension to the many-TeV energy regime. The energy-cubed dependence of lower energy colliders is found to soften to an increase of slightly less than quadratic when averaged over the pla...
متن کاملPhysics with a Millimole of Muons
The eventual prospect of muon colliders reaching several TeV encourages us to consider the experimental opportunities presented by very copious stores of muons, approaching 10 per year. I summarize and comment upon some highlights of the Fermilab Workshop on Physics at the First Muon Collider and at the Front End of a Muon Collider. Topics include various varieties of μμ colliders, μp colliders...
متن کاملThe Potential for Neutrino Physics at Muon Colliders and Dedicated High Current Muon Storage Rings
Conceptual design studies are underway for muon colliders and other high-current muon storage rings that have the potential to become the first true “neutrino factories”. Muon decays in long straight sections of the storage rings would produce precisely characterized beams of electron and muon type neutrinos of unprecedented intensity. This article reviews prospects the for these facilities to ...
