Description
The 10 TeV Wakefield Collider Design Study [1] aims to produce a self-consistent, start-to-end design of a 10 TeV-center-of-mass linear collider based on wakefields technology. One of the considered options for driving the main linac is beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA). The goal of the PWFA-Linac Working Group is to identify the main challenges and showstoppers, and to define a set of global metrics to optimize the proposed solutions.
We summarize the recent discussions and present some basic considerations on the PWFA Linac design.
