First Considerations on Beam Optics and Lattice Design for the Future Hadron-Hadron Collider FCC-hh

The main emphasis of the Future Circular Collider study is the design of a 100~TeV proton-proton collider in a new tunnel of about 100 km circumference. This paper presents the first optics design of the future hadron collider (FCC-hh). The basic layout follows a quasi-circular geometry ‘‘quasi racetrack'' with 8 arcs and 8 straight sections, four of which designed as interaction points. Assuming 16~T dipole magnets, a first version of the ring geometry and magnet lattice is presented, including the optics of the foreseen high luminosity regions and of the other straight sections dedicated to the installation of injection/extraction lines, beam dump etc., and an arc structure with optimized dipole fill factor to reach the target center-of-mass energy of 100~TeV.
