“…In particular, the body update region kernels will simply run too fast to hide these costs. We investigated the scaling over 1,2,4,8,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110,120 GPUs. However, because of the limited memory on each GPU, larger problems cannot run on a smaller number of GPUs.…”

The development of next-generation TeV+ electron accelerators will require either immense footprints based on conventional acceleraton techniques or the development of new higher-gradient acceleration methods. One possible alternative is beam-driven acceleration in a high-impedance medium such as a dielectric-lined-waveguide (DLW), where a highcharge bunch passes through a DLW and can excite gradients on the order of GV/m. An important characteristic of this acceleration class is the transformer ratio which characterizes the energy transfer of the scheme. This dissertation discusses alternative methods to improve the transformer ratio for beam-driven acceleration and also considers the use of DLWs for beam manipulation at low energy.

“…It is estimated that in the post-1938 era, accelerator science has influenced almost 1/3 of physicists and physics studies and on average contributed to physics Nobel Prize-winning research every 2.9 years [1]. Colliding beam facilities which produce high-energy collisions (interactions) between particles of approximately oppositely directed beams did pave the way for progress since the 1960's.…”

“…To gain an insight into the physics of elementary particles, one accelerates them to very high kinetic energy, let them impact on other particles, and detect products of the reactions that transform the particles into other particles.

Particle colliders for high energy physics have been in the forefront of scientific discoveries for more than half a century. The accelerator technology of the collider has progressed immensely, while the beam energy, luminosity, facility size and the cost have grown by several orders of magnitude. The method of colliding beams has not fully exhausted its potential but its pace of progress has greatly slowed down. In this paper we very briefly review the method and the history of colliders, discuss in detail the developments over the past two decades and the directions of the R&D toward near future colliders which are currently being explored. Finally, we make an attempt to look beyond the current horizon and outline the changes in the paradigm required for the next breakthroughs. Content: 1. Introduction, colliders of today a. The method b. Brief history of the colliders, beam physics and key technologies c. Past 20 years -achievements and problems solved 2. Next 20 years: physics, technologies and machines a. LHC upgrades and lower energy colliders b. Post-LHC energy frontier lepton colliders: ILC, CLIC, Muon Collider 3. Beyond 2030's: new methods and paradigm shift a. Possible development of colliders in the resource-limited world b. Future technologies: acceleration in microstructures, in plasma and in crystals c. Luminosity limits 4. Conclusions

“…Particle accelerators have been widely used for physics research since the early 20 th century and have greatly progressed both scientifically and technologically since then. It is estimated that in the post-1938 era, accelerator science has influenced almost 1/3 of physicists and physics studies and on average contributed to physics Nobel Prize-winning research every 2.9 years [1]. Since the 1960's, twenty nine colliding beam facilities which produce high-energy collisions (interactions) between particles of approximately oppositely directed beams reached operational stage [2].…”

High energy particle colliders have been in the forefront of particle physics for more than three decades. At present the near term US, European and international strategies of the particle physics community are centered on full exploitation of the physics potential of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) through its high-luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC). A number of next generation collider facilities have been proposed and are currently under consideration for the medium-and far-future of the accelerator-based high energy physics. In this paper we offer a uniform approach to evaluation of various accelerators based on the feasibility of their energy reach, performance reach and cost range. We briefly review such post-LHC options as linear e+e-colliders in Japan (ILC) or at CERN (CLIC), muon collider, and circular lepton or hadron colliders in China (CepC/SppC) and Europe (FCC). We conclude with a look into ultimate energy reach accelerators based on plasmas and crystals, and some perspectives for the far future of accelerator-based particle physics.
