A Staged Muon Accelerator Facility For Neutrino and Collider Physics

Understand

Muon-based facilities offer unique potential to provide capabilities at both the Intensity Frontier with Neutrino Factories and the Energy Frontier with Muon Colliders.

• They rely on a novel technology with challenging parameters, for which the feasibility is currently being evaluated by the Muon Accelerator Program (MAP).
• A realistic scenario for a complementary series of staged facilities with increasing complexity and significant physics potential at each stage has been developed.
• It takes advantage of and leverages the capabilities already planned for Fermilab, especially the strategy for long-term improvement of the accelerator complex being initiated with the Proton Improvement Plan (PIP-II) and the Long Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF).
