Abstract :
Two dedicated workshops have been held in California on μ+ μ$colliders: Napa in 1992 and Sausalito in 1994. As a result of this and a new round of simulations, as well as μ± cooling experimental plans, it is possible to consider the feasibility of constructing a μ+μ- collider. However, the energy range and required luminosity must be specified by the particle physics goals before proceeding. Also, the unique features of the physics potential vs. LHC must be shown. We will describe the status of this field and the key problems that must be solved before a definite proposal can be made
