Title: Monitoring in future e/sup +/e/sup /minus// colliders

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6082516

Study groups throughout the world have recently been examining possible parameter choices for a TeV-class linear collider. In all cases, they have concluded that in order to achieve useful luminosity within plausible cost constraints, the opposing beams of electrons and positrons must be focused to extraordinarily small spots and steered into collision with an unprecedented degree of accuracy. Some means of monitoring these beam parameters will be essential in order to guide the focusing and steering. In this talk, examples will be presented which illustrate the nature of these new requirements, along with a discussion of the limitations of conventional techniques for monitoring such beams and some recent measurements from the SLAC Linear Collider that show how the next level of resolution in beam monitoring will be achieved. 19 refs., 12 figs., 1 tab.
