Photon-Nucleon Collider based on LHC and CLIC

We describe the scheme of a photon-nucleon collider where high energy photons generated by Compton backscattering off a CLIC electron beam, at either 75 GeV or 1.5 TeV are collided with protons or ions stored in LHC. Different design constraints for such a collider are discussed and achievable lumin...

Sumario:We describe the scheme of a photon-nucleon collider where high energy photons generated by Compton backscattering off a CLIC electron beam, at either 75 GeV or 1.5 TeV are collided with protons or ions stored in LHC. Different design constraints for such a collider are discussed and achievable luminosity performance is estimated.
