16th Advanced Accelerator Concepts Workshop (AAC 2014) - Working Group 7

14 Jul 2014, 08:00 → 18 Jul 2014, 18:00 US/Pacific

Alexander Valishev (Fermilab), Jean-Pierre Delahaye (SLAC)

Muon Colliders and Advanced Concepts (Madrone Room)
Working Group Leaders: Jean-Pierre Delahaye/SLAC, Sasha Valishev/FNAL
The subject matter of this WG has evolved over the years. With Muon Collider, a very attractive option to extend lepton colliders in the multi-TeV energy range, WG7 will address the major challenges facing the muon collider community, such as muon production, emittance reduction via cooling, high-gradient acceleration and will explore novel alternative methods. Another focus area of WG7 will be on advanced beam dynamics aspects in Intensity Frontier machines, with particular emphasis on the space charge effect, beam halo control and mitigation. Among other advanced concepts, new particle production, storage and acceleration techniques that lie outside the purview of the other WGs, will be explored.
