Beam parameter optimization at CLIC using the process $e^+e^− \to HZ \to Hq \bar q$ at 380 GeV
At CLIC and the ILC beam–beam forces lead to the emission of beamstrahlung photons and a reduction of the effective center-of-mass energy. This degradation is controlled by the choice of the horizontal beam size. A reduction of this parameter would increase the luminosity but also the beamstrahlung....

Sumario: | At CLIC and the ILC beam–beam forces lead to the emission of beamstrahlung photons and a reduction of the effective center-of-mass energy. This degradation is controlled by the choice of the horizontal beam size. A reduction of this parameter would increase the luminosity but also the beamstrahlung. In this paper the optimum choice for the horizontal beam size is investigated for one of the most important physics processes. The Higgsstrahlung process $e^+ e^− \to HZ$ is identified in a model-independent manner by observing the Z boson and determining the mass against which it is recoiling. The physics analysis for this process is performed for constant running times, assuming different beam size and taking into account the resulting levels of integrated luminosity and the associated luminosity spectra. |
