| A Storage Ring based Option for the LHeC (2008) | |||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||
| The LHeC aims at the generation of hadron-lepton collisions with center of mass energies in the TeV scale and luminosities of the order of $10^{32}-10^{33} cm^{-2} sec^{-1}$ by taking advantage of the existing LHC 7 TeV proton ring and adding a high energy electron accelerator. This paper presents technical considerations and potential parameter choices for such a machine and outlines some of the challenges arising when an electron storage ring based option, constructed within the existing infrastructure of the LHC, is chosen. | |||||||||
