Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Muon Collider approach Collider based on a secondary beam: we have experience basing colliders on antiprotons. For muons we must do it in 20 msec. The biggest advantages are: narrow energy spread (no beamstrahlung) and small physical footprint (no synchrotron radiation) No new methods of acceleration, but new method of deceleration!: muon cooling Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Project X and LBNE to Homestake 5% of the time line, the 2 GeV linac feeds a simple Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), 500m circumference, to strip, accumulate and boost the energy to 8 GeV Six pulses of the SAB are transferred to the recycler, filling the existing recycler, and every 1.4 sec transferred to the Main Injector for acceleration to high energies (60 GeV to 120 GeV) Brinkman/Dehmer Visit, August 13th,

Project X and 8 GeV beams 8/14 RCS cycles are available for an 8 GeV program driven by a fast spill (single turn). An example is a much upgraded muon g-2 Slow extraction as needed for rare processes is very limited from circular machines: only method is resonance extraction which is “rad dirty” and limits extraction to 10s of kW. Brinkman/Dehmer Visit, August 13th,

Project X and 2 GeV beams The greatest potential for rare processes comes from 2 MW continuous beam. Intensity experiments need continuous beam: pile up is the main limitation in pulsed beams Brinkman/Dehmer Visit, August 13th,

Capturing and cooling Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Muon collider challenges Capture and cooling could be done effectively provided we learn how to operate RF cavities inside magnetic fields An important shortcut would be to demonstrate operation in magnetic fields with gas filled cavities. Done already with no beam. Next with beam. Need demonstration of 6D cooling Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Muon collider challenges Need development of very high fields solenoids for last stages of cooling (luminosity proportional to field). Ideally upwards of 40T Need end-to-end system simulation to understand ultimate losses, emittances Understand full physics reach with backgrounds and masks regions (come to Fermilab Nov workshop, with help from ILC and CLIC) Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Muon collider/ILC/Project X ILC and Project X developing very efficient accelerating structures that can be run economically Muon collider requires substantial acceleration (few km) that ideally would use ILC/ Project X technology Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

Conclusions on Physics Lepton colliders are comparable in physics reach at comparable energies and the physics is outstanding There are advantages to CLIC (polarization) and advantages to muon colliders (narrow energy spread) Next steps: identify benchmark processes and determine realistic detector configuration; assuming similar physics, cost and feasibility will dertermine the outcome Muon Collider WIN2009, Perugia, September 15,

But can the physics be done ?  Muon Collider detector backgrounds were studied actively 10 years ago ( ). The most detailed work was done for a 2  2 TeV Collider →  s=4 TeV.  Since muons decay (t 2TeV =42ms), there is a large background from the decay electrons which must be shielded.
