The International Linear Collider Technical Design Report - Volume 3.II: Accelerator Baseline Design

Understand

The International Linear Collider Technical Design Report (TDR) describes in four volumes the physics case and the design of a 500 GeV centre-of-mass energy linear electron-positron collider based on superconducting radio-frequency technology using Niobium cavities as the accelerating structures.

• The accelerator can be extended to 1 TeV and also run as a Higgs factory at around 250 GeV and on the Z0 pole.
• A comprehensive value estimate of the accelerator is give, together with associated uncertainties.
• It is shown that no significant technical issues remain to be solved.
