Abstract
Abstract
The United States has a rich history in high energy particle
accelerators and colliders — both lepton and hadron machines,
which have enabled several major discoveries in elementary particle
physics. To ensure continued progress in the field, U.S. leadership
as a key partner in building next generation collider facilities
abroad is essential; also critically important is to prepare to host
an energy frontier collider in the U.S. once the construction of
the LBNF/DUNE project is completed. In this paper, we briefly
discuss the ongoing and potential U.S. engagement in proposed
collider projects abroad and present a number of future collider
options we have studied for hosting an energy frontier collider in
the U.S. We also call for initiating an integrated national R&D
program in the U.S. now, focused on future colliders.
