摘要
We analyze the design of a high energy mu+mu- collider based on electro-production of muons. We derive an expression for the luminosity in terms of analytic formulae for the electron-to-muon conversion efficiency and the electron beam power on the production target. On the basis of studies of self-consistent sets of collider parameters under ''realistic'' (''optimistic'') assumptions about available technology with beam cooling, we find the luminosity limited to 10(27) cm-2 s-1 (10(28) cm-2 s-1). We also identify major technological innovations that will be required before mu+mu- colliders can offer sufficient luminosity (10(30) cm-2 s-1) for high energy physics research.
