The Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) energy and intensity frontier particle physics. Exploiting recovery technology, it collides a novel, intense beam with proton or ion from High Luminosity--Large (HL-LHC). accelerator interaction region are for concurrent electron-proton proton-proton operation. This report represents an update Conceptual Design Report (CDR) LHeC, published in 2012. It comprises new results on parton...
Abstract This paper presents the first plasmid DNA irradiations carried out with Very High Energy Electrons (VHEE) over 100–200 MeV at CLEAR user facility CERN to determine Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) of VHEE. damage yields were measured in dry and aqueous environments that ~ 99% total breaks caused by indirect effects, consistent other published measurements for protons photons. Double-Strand Break (DSB) yield was used as biological endpoint RBE calculation, values found be...
A conceptual design is presented of a novel energy-recovering linac (ERL) facility for the development and application energy recovery technique to linear electron accelerators in multi-turn, large current regime. The main characteristics powerful experiment (PERLE) are derived from Large Hadron Collider, an beam upgrade under study LHC, which it would be key demonstrator. PERLE thus projected as investigate efficient, high (HC) (>10 mA) ERL operation with three re-circulation passages...

A novel scheme for the focusing of high-energy leptons in future linear colliders was proposed 2001 [P. Raimondi and A. Seryi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 3779 (2001)]. This has many advantageous properties over previously studied schemes, including being significantly shorter a given energy having better bandwidth. Experimental results from ATF2 accelerator at KEK are presented that validate operating principle such by demonstrating demagnification 1.3 GeV electron beam down to below 65 nm height...
