Design Initiative for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Collider

This document outlines a community-driven Design Study for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Accelerator Collider. The 2020 ESPP Report emphasized the need for Advanced Accelerator R\&D, and the 2023 P5 Report calls for the ``delivery of an end-to-end design concept, including cost scales, with self-consistent parameters throughout." This Design Study leverages recent experimental and theoretical progress resulting from a global R\&D program in order to deliver a unified, 10 TeV Wakefield Collider concept. Wakefield Accelerators provide ultra-high accelerating gradients which enables an upgrade path that will extend the reach of Linear Colliders beyond the electroweak scale. Here, we describe the organization of the Design Study including timeline and deliverables, and we detail the requirements and challenges on the path to a 10 TeV Wakefield Collider.

Flat beam plasma wakefield accelerator

Particle beams with highly asymmetric emittance ratios are expected at the interaction point of high energy colliders. These asymmetric beams can be used to drive high gradient wakefields in dielectrics and plasma. In the case of plasma, the high aspect ratio of the drive beam creates a transversely elliptical blowout cavity and the asymmetry in the ion column creates asymmetric focusing in the two transverse planes. The ellipticity of the blowout depends on the ellipticity and normalized charge density of the beam. In this paper, simulations are performed to investigate the ellipticity of the wakefield based on the initial driver beam parameters. The matching conditions for this elliptical cavity are discussed. Example cases for employment using the attainable parameter space at the AWA and FACET facilities are also presented.
