A Final Focus System for the Next Linear Collider
نویسندگان
چکیده
The final focus of the Next Linear Collider (NLC) demagnifies electron and positron beams of 250–750 GeV energy down to a transverse size of about 2.5 × 350 nm at the interaction point (IP). The basic layout, momentum bandwidth, vibration tolerances, wakefield effects, and the tunability of the proposed final focus design are discussed. Also a perspective is given on the crab cavity and on effects of the solenoid field in the interaction region.

Next-generation Linear Collider Final Focus System Stability Tolerances*
The design of final focus systems for the next generation of linear colliders has evolved largely from the experience gained with the design and operation of the Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) and with the design of the Final Focus Test Beam (FFTB). We will compare the tolerances for two typical designs for a next-generation linear collider final focus system. The chromaticity generated by stro...
متن کاملNovel final focus design for future linear colliders.
The length, complexity, and cost of the present final focus designs for linear colliders grow very quickly with the beam energy. In this Letter, a novel final focus system is presented and compared with the one proposed for the Next Linear Collider (NLC Zeroth-Order Design Report, edited by T. O. Raubenheimer, SLAC Report No. 474, 1996). This new design has fewer optical elements and is much sh...

There is presently a large international community of physicists and engineers working toward the realization of a Next-Generation Linear Collider. The 3rd International Workshop on the Next-Generation Linear Collider is being hosted this September by the INP at Protvino, USSR. The second,workshop of this kind, held at the KEK laboratory in Japan, had two hundred participants. This month the 2n...
متن کاملOverview of Collimation in the next Linear Collider
The Next Linear Collider (NLC) requires a substantial system of beam collimators to minimize the halo-related backgrounds at the interaction point, provide machine protection against errant pulses, and limit radiation doses throughout the accelerator. In particular, the NLC design contains a complete 5-dimensional (x,x’,y,y’,energy) collimation system at the entrance and exit of the main linac;...
متن کاملNew Developments in the next Linear Collider Beam
We review many developments in the design of the Beam Delivery System for the Next Linear Colllider. The collimation system has been redesigned to reduce nonlinearities and ease tolerances, and the IP Switch line has been adjusted to permit a 300 meter longitudinal separation between the two detectors. Magnet designs have been changed to reduce the number of distinct magnet classes, produce a s...
