Repurposing Existing Accelerator Facilities for Muon Collider R&D

ORAL

Abstract

The muon collider (MuC) is an ambitious proposal for a next-generation high-energy physics machine. The MuC would require multiple challenging stages of beam formation and manipulation, including multi-megawatt hadron beam compression, six-dimensional muon beam cooling, and fast muon acceleration. In this talk, I discuss the potential to repurpose existing accelerator facilities to demonstrate these key technologies in the near future.
