LHEC and HE-LHC: accelerator layout and challenges

  • 1. CERN, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

The Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) is a proposed new facility at CERN which will collide the 7-TeV protons circulating in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with a high-energy lepton beam at a single collision point. While the High-Energy Large Hadron Collider (HE-LHC) is a future energy upgrade of the LHC. It foresees new 20-T dipole magnets in the LHC arcs, providing a pp c.m. energy of 33 TeV. This paper presents a concise description of the layouts of the proposed LHeC and HE-LHC, and discusses their main accelerator-physics and technology challenges, details the required LHC modifications, and describes the associated global schedules with decision points
