Description
One of the most fundamental measurements since the Higgs boson discovery, is its Yukawa couplings. Such a measurement is only feasible, if the centre-of-mass (CM) energy spread of the e+e- collisions can be reduced from ~50 MeV to a level comparable to the Higgs boson’s natural width of ~4 MeV. To reach such desired collision energy spread and improve the CM energy resolution in colliding-beam experiments, the concept of a monochro-matic colliding mode has been proposed as a new mode of operation in FCC-ee. This monochromatization mode could be achieved by generating a nonzero dispersion function of opposite signs for the two beams, at the Inter-action Point (IP). Several methods to implement a mono-chromatization colliding scheme are possible, in this paper we report the implementation of such a scheme by means of dipoles. More in detail a new Interaction Re-gion (IR) optics design for FCC-ee at 125 GeV (direct Higgs s-channel production) has been designed and the first beam dynamics simulations are in progress.
