MOXPA — Linear Colliders, Lepton Accelerators and
New Acceleration Techniques
The Global Design Initiative for an International Linear Collider
Two years after the selection of the SC technology
and a few months before the release of B.C. Barish (CALTECH)
the ILC Conceptual Design Report, the presentation
will review the main issues towards an ILC project and the world-wide collaboration presently set-up to
address them. It will especially emphasize the challenges both technical (performances, reliability, machine protection,
cost minimisation, industrialisation) and organisational, in a world-wide collaboration for the first time from
the very beginning of the project. It will then present the status of the performances already demonstrated, the R&D
presently envisaged to improve them or reduce the cost, the test facilities set-up to address them and the effort towards
technology transfer to industry and industrialisation. Finally, it will present the plans and schedule for the future as
well as the site specific parameters and cost issues.
SCRF Test Facilities toward the ILC
After the ICFA selection of the superconducting
linear collider technology in August K. Saito (KEK)
2004, many intensive R&D programs are in
the planning stage or already underway. Work is proceeding in the three major geographical regions involved in
the ILC: Europe(TTF), North America (SMTF) and Asia (STF). In this paper, the global activity represented by these
superconducting RF test facilities will be reviewed. Their goals, plans, schedules and possible complementarities will
be presented. The performance expected from the different R&D efforts by 2008, and the corresponding contribution
to the ILC Technical Design Report, will be especially emphasized.
