Description
In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for Particle
Physics, the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study was launched, as an
international collaboration hosted by CERN. This study covers a
highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee) and an
energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), which could, successively, be
installed in the same 100 km tunnel. The scientific capabilities of the
integrated FCC programme would serve the worldwide community throughout
the 21st century. The FCC study also investigates an LHC energy upgrade,
using FCC-hh technology. This document constitutes the second volume of
the FCC Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the electron-positron
collider FCC-ee. After summarizing the physics discovery opportunities,
it presents the accelerator design, performance reach, a staged
operation scenario, the underlying technologies, civil engineering,
technical infrastructure, and an implementation plan. FCC-ee can be
built with today's technology. Most of the FCC-ee infrastructure could
be reused for FCC-hh. Combining concepts from past and present lepton
colliders and adding a few novel elements, the FCC-ee design promises
outstandingly high luminosity. This will make the FCC-ee a unique
precision instrument to study the heaviest known particles (Z, W and H
bosons and the top quark), offering great direct and indirect
sensitivity to new physics.
