Future Linear Colliders

- New particle colliders are being designed in order to study in more detail the final structure of matter that forms the world around us. A new machine is leading the race for its construction. The International Linear Collider will be a 30km long straight machine that would provide collisions between electrons and positrons at up to 1TeV. But why do we need to build a new machine? What is foreseen to be found that is radically new? And where will it be built? To answer these questions, we have Professor Phil Burrows, director of the John Adams Institute for Accelerator Science at University of Oxford.
The questions:
-02:18: What is a linear collider and how are the particles accelerated?
-03:20: What is a 'linac'?
-04:16: What are the differences between linear and circular colliders?
-06:23: What will future linear colliders, such as the International Linear Colliders (ILC) and Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), be used for and what physics are we hoping to find with them?
-09:24: What energies will these future colliders operate at?
-13:29: What is the status of the design and construction of the ILC and CLIC?
-15:49: What is a free electron laser?
-18:29: What would you say to young students who’d like to pursue a career in Particle Physics or Accelerator Science?
