ILC Reference Design Report Volume 4 - Detectors

Understand

This report, Volume IV of the International Linear Collider Reference Design Report, describes the detectors which will record and measure the charged and neutral particles produced in the ILC's high energy e+e- collisions.

• The physics of the ILC, and the environment of the machine-detector interface, pose new challenges for detector design.
• Several conceptual designs for the detector promise the needed performance, and ongoing detector R&D is addressing the outstanding technological issues.
• Two such detectors, operating in push-pull mode, perfectly instrument the ILC interaction region, and access the full potential of ILC physics.
