Abstract :
A μ+-μ- collider requires a high-intensity proton source for π-production, a high-acceptance π-μ decay channel, a μ-cooling system, a rapid acceleration system, and a high-luminosity collider ring for the collision of short, intense μ+-μ- bunches. Significant beam-dynamics problems exist in each of these systems. These problems and some paths to solutions are discussed in this paper
