Title :
Aluminum beam tube for Super Collider: an option for no-coating and no-liner
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
This paper proposes to use a single-layer beam tube made of high strength, high resistivity aluminum alloy (such as 7039-T61 or A7N01) to replace the double-layer copper coated stainless steel tube in the Super Collider. The merits, technical issues and possible implementation are briefly discussed. For details the readers are referred to reference 1. This work was originally done for the SSC, but it may also be useful to future colliders
