Description

CERN is studying the feasibility of building a high energy e+ e- linear collider: the CLIC (Compact Linear Collider). One of the challenges of such a collider is the prealignment tolerance on the transverse positions of the linacs components which is typically ten micrometers over distances of 200m. This paper reviews all studies carried out in order to find one possible solution for active prealignment. It describes the overall solution for the alignment proposed in 2003. It then introduces the prospects for CLIC alignment future studies.
