Plasma accelerators promise significantly more compact, affordable and greener next-generation facilities, including linear colliders. While high-efficiency and -quality plasma acceleration of electron beams has been achieved, positron beams are much more challenging. The HALHF* (hybrid, asymmetric, linear Higgs factory) collider concept sidesteps the positron problem by accelerating them...
I will discuss potential offered by Energy-Recovery Linacs (ERLs) and particle recycling for boosting luminosity to 1E37 cm-2sec-1 level in TeV-scale electron-positron colliders. ERL-based colliders have promise not only of significantly higher luminosity, but also of higher energy efficiency measured in units of luminosity divided by the consumed AC power. Addition of recycling collided...
The SuperKEKB accelerator recorded a peak luminosity more than twice that of the KEKB accelerator, but there are various challenges in updating the luminosity beyond that. One of the challenges is to eliminate sudden beam loss (SBL), in which a significant part of the circulating beam is lost in a few short turns. SBLs of the positron ring were investigated and found that the SBLs are...
