  • Abstract
    We discuss possible acceleration scenarios and methods for a μ +-μ- collider. The accelerator must take the beams from ~100 MeV to 2 TeV energies within the muon life-time (2.2×10-6Eμ/mμ μS), while compressing bunches of ~1012 muons from m to cm bunch lengths. A linac, recirculating linac, and very rapid-cycling synchrotron approaches are studied. A multiple recirculating linac approach is matched to the muon lifetime and appear readily feasible. Rapid-cycling approaches require innovations in magnet designs and layouts, but could be much more affordable
