“…Target radii larger than about 1 cm lead to lower pion rates due to reabsorption, while smaller diameter targets have less production from secondary interactions. Tilting the target by 100-150 mrad minimizes loss of pions by absorption in the target after one turn on their helical trajectory [50,120]. Another advantage of the tilted target geometry is that the high energy and neutral components of the shower can be absorbed in a watercooled beam dump to the side of the focused beam.…”

“…The goal of the Collaboration is to complete within a few years the R&D needed to determine whether a muon collider is technically feasible, and, if it is, to design the first muon collider (FMC). Table I gives the parameters of the muon colliders under study [48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55], which have COM energies of 0.1, 0.4, and 3 TeV, and Figs. 2 and 3 show possible outlines of the 0.1 and 3 TeV machines.…”

The status of the research on muon colliders is discussed and plans are outlined for future theoretical and experimental studies. Besides work on the parameters of a 3-4 and 0.5 TeV center-of-mass (COM) energy collider, many studies are now concentrating on a machine near 0.1 TeV (COM) that could be a factory for the s-channel production of Higgs particles. We discuss the research on the various components in such muon colliders, starting from the proton accelerator needed to generate pions from 1098-4402͞99͞2(8)͞081001(73)$15.00 © 1999 The American Physical Society 081001-1 PRST-AB 2 CHARLES M.

We also present theoretical and experimental R&D plans for the next several years that should lead to a better understanding of the design and feasibility issues for all of the components. This report is an update of the progress on the research and development since the feasibility study of muon colliders presented at the Snowmass '96

“…More recently, a collaboration of over 100 members, lead by BNL, FNAL, LBNL, BNIP, University of Mississippi, Princeton University and UCLA has been formed to coordinate studies on specific designs. Work has been done on designs at a 3-4 TeV, 0.4-0.5 TeV and ≈100 GeV [3][4][5][6][7]. Tb.…”
