Systematic Ground Motion and Macro-Alignment for Linear Colliders

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/798956· OSTI ID:798956
Future colliders with their {micro}m-range operational tolerances still need to be classically aligned to the 50 - 100 {micro}m range, and kept there, over the km range. This requirement will not be a show-stopper, but not be trivial either. 50 {micro}m ground movements over a betatron wavelength is a the range where systematic long term motions can prevent efficient operation.
