1. Luminosity of the Super-Tau-Charm Factory with Crab Waist D. Shatilov BINP, Novosibirsk TAU’08 Workshop, Satellite Meeting “On the Need for a Super-Tau-Charm Factory” 26-27 September 2008, BINP, Novosibirsk, Russia

2. Beam-Beam Studies (step by step)  Determine the main set of parameters (emittances, beta-functions, bunch current, damping decrements, crossing angle, etc.)  Wide range scan of betatron tunes for the simplified model: linear lattice and beam-beam. Two options: with and without Crab Waist.  Select a working point, taking into account the dynamic aperture Investigations.  More detailed simulations, including beam tails (linear lattice yet). Scan for bunch current. Two options: with and without Crab Waist.  Beam-Beam simulations for the actual (nonlinear) lattice: sextupoles and octupoles included.

7. Summary  Luminosity of 10 35 can be achieved with the total beam current 1.6 A and rather small  y (can be increased from 0.13 to 0.15÷0.17).  Crab Waist is a key feature, otherwise “mission impossible”.  More detailed simulations with the actual (nonlinear) lattice are required. This will be done as soon as the lattice is ready.
