Abstract
Abstract
Research on the application of advanced and novel
accelerator schemes to high-energy physics requires facilities
capable of producing multi-GeV particle beams. We briefly review
the challenges faced by advanced accelerators in reaching
collider-relevant parameters and give a concise description of
relevant European facilities and large scale installations, either
in operation or in a state of advanced design, with their main
goals. We also emphasize contributions from smaller, mostly
university groups or laboratories. These facilities and groups
advance the field considerably and address some of the challenges
arising in the translation of advanced accelerator concepts to a
future high-energy physics machine. We highlight the fact that there
is in addition the strong need for a dedicated European facility
with a scientific and R&D program specific to the research
questions exclusive to a plasma-based e-e+ linear collider.
