• What is needed as input for next Strategy Update?
– What will be objections to the muon collider concept?
– What do we need to support to be scientifically sound?
– What do we need to have ready for the test facilities?
– And the other R&D programme?
• Probably should think in terms of scope from the beginning: for each R&D item, define required level => Initial proposal:
- no work needed;
- concept, basic parameters;
- lattice, reasonable basic performance specifications;
- lattice with tolerances, advanced performance specifications;
- conceptual design;
- engineering design;
- model, test of specific parameters;
- prototype.
Charge for this Third Muon Community Meeting:
During the first community meeting we identified a set of challenges in the delivery of the muon collider. During the second community meeting we sought to deliver a prioritised and resource loaded R&D list. The goal now is to confirm the R&D list, and review possible timescales for delivery of the necessary R&D.
