Description
While standard s-channel physics indicates that extremely high luminosities will be needed at TeV and beyond energy scales, there are physics questions which can be probed with lower luminosities. Since achieving high luminosities with realistic power consumption could be technologically much more difficult than achieving high energies, it is important that the physics case for a high energy but low luminosity (or single beam) accelerator be investigated. We have listed a number of physics topics in this note to indicate that such physics topics exist, and hope that this will lead to further investigations of physics topics that would rely primarily on energy and not on luminosity.
