Zz. Aydin et al., LINAC-RING TYPE EP MACHINES AND GAMMA-P COLLIDERS BASED ON THEM, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 351(2-3), 1994, pp. 261-265
Main parameters of new type of ep colliders and TeV energy gamma p col
liders on their bases are investigated. High energy gamma beams are pr
oduced by the Compton backscattering of laser photons off electron bea
ms from linear accelerators. We consider a number of possible proposal
s and show that sufficiently high ep and gamma p luminosities will be
achievable due to reasonable improvements of proton beam parameters.
