NLC ZDR: Zero Order Design Report for the NEXT Linear Collider (Volume 2)
- SLAC National Accelerator Lab., Menlo Park, CA (United States)
This “Zeroth-Order Design Report” (ZDR) for the Next Linear Collider (NLC) is being created at a time of both great opportunity and uncertainty in the future directions that will be taken by the world-wide community of high- energy physics. There is exciting news that the Large Hadron Collider project has been approved for construction at CERN, and the planned involvement by physicists and engineers from countries around the globe will make this the first accelerator to be designed and built by a truly world-wide collaboration. By contrast, the cancellation of the SSC has demonstrated the necessity of international collaboration on such large scientific projects. The community of scientists and engineers at work on the accelerator physics and technologies of high-energy electron-positron colliders has recognized this need, and has made concerted effort to coordinate research activities to optimize our combined understanding and knowledge. This ZDR is one further step in this process.
