TL;DR: In this article, a possible design of a multi-TeV e+e-linear collider is presented based on the CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) two-beam technology proposed and developed at CERN.
Abstract: A possible design of a multi-TeV e+e- linear collider is presented The design is based on the CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) two-beam technology proposed and developed at CERN Though the study has shown that this technology is applicable to a linear collider with centre-of-mass energies from 500 GeV or less up to 5 TeV, the present report focuses on the nominal energy of 3 Te V First, a short overview is given of the physics that could possibly be done with such a collider Then, the description of the main-beam complex covers the injection system, the 30 GHz main linac, and the beam delivery system The presentation of the RF power source includes the beam-generation scheme, the drive-beam decelerator, which consists of several 625 m long units running parallel to the main linac, and the power-extraction system Finally, brief outlines are given of all the CLIC test facilities They cover in particular the new CLIC test facility CTF3 which will demonstrate the feasibility of the power production technique, albeit on a reduced scale, and a first full-scale single-drive-beam unit, CLICI, to establish the overall feasibility of the scheme

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of an artificially enhanced rough surface on the secondary electron yield (SEY) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally, and the connection between the characteristic parameters of a given geometry to the SEY reduction was shown.
Abstract: The effect of an artificially enhanced rough surface on the secondary electron yield (SEY) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Analytical studies on triangular and rectangular grooved surfaces show the connection between the characteristic parameters of a given geometry to the SEY reduction. The effect of a strong magnetic field is also discussed. SEY of grooved samples have been measured and the results agree with particle simulations using a Monte Carlo approach.

TL;DR: FACET as discussed by the authors provides high energy-density electron and positron beams with peak currents of roughly 20'kA that will be focused down to a 10'm×10'm transverse spot size at an energy of ~23'GeV.
Abstract: FACET—Facilities for Accelerator science and Experimental Test beams at SLAC—will provide high-energy-density electron and positron beams with peak currents of roughly 20 kA that will be focused down to a 10 μm×10 μm transverse spot size at an energy of ~23 GeV. With FACET, the SLAC linac will support a unique program concentrating on second-generation research in plasma wakefield acceleration. Topics include high-gradient electron acceleration with a narrow energy spread and preserved emittance, beam loading and high-gradient positron acceleration. This paper describes the FACET facility, summarizes the state of the art for plasma wakefield accelerators and discusses the plasma wakefield accelerator program to be conducted at FACET over the next five years.

TL;DR: The first experimental demonstration of the echo-enabled harmonic generation technique, which holds great promise for generation of high-power, fully coherent short-wavelength radiation, is reported.
Abstract: We report the first experimental demonstration of the echo-enabled harmonic generation technique, which holds great promise for generation of high-power, fully coherent short-wavelength radiation. In this experiment, coherent radiation at the 3rd and 4th harmonics of the second seed laser is generated from the so-called beam echo effect. The experiment confirms the physics behind this technique and paves the way for applying the echo-enabled harmonic generation technique for seeded x-ray free electron lasers.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a simple description of models where electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered by a light composite Higgs, which emerges from a strongly-interacting sector as a pseudo-Goldstone boson.
Abstract: We develop a simple description of models where electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered by a light composite Higgs, which emerges from a strongly-interacting sector as a pseudo-Goldstone boson. Two parameters broadly characterize these models: mρ, the mass scale of the new resonances and gρ, their coupling. An effective low-energy Lagrangian approach proves to be useful for LHC and ILC phenomenology below the scale mρ. We identify two classes of operators: those that are genuinely sensitive to the new strong force and those that are sensitive to the spectrum of the resonances only. Phenomenological prospects for the LHC and the ILC include the study of high-energy longitudinal vector boson scattering, strong double-Higgs production and anomalous Higgs couplings. We finally discuss the possibility that the top quark could also be a composite object of the strong sector.
