Description

The presentation will summarize scope and status of the International Future Circular Collider Study. Machine concepts and parameters will be presented together with essential technical components to be developed. Key elements are superconducting accelerator-dipole magnets with a field of 16 T for the hadron collider and high-power, high-efficiency RF systems for the lepton collider. In addition the unprecedented beam power presents special challenges for the hadron collider for all aspects of beam handling and machine protection. The status of the infrastructure study will also be summarized and the initial considerations for experiments will be presented.
