CLIC CDR

Overview

The CLIC Conceptual Design Report (CDR), published in 2012, comprises three volumes:

• "A multi-TeV Linear Collider based on CLIC Technology" (link)
• "Physics and Detectors at CLIC" (see below) (link)
• "The CLIC programme: towards a staged e+e- collider exploring the terascale" (link)

 

The first two reports provide detailed accounts of the conceptual design and the feasibility of the CLIC multi-TeV linear collider and its physics potential, with a focus on the most difficult option, i.e. 3 TeV centre-of-mass energy.

The third volume summarizes the first two, and gives information on a staged construction and operation of CLIC. This volume also discusses issues related to the schedule and cost of CLIC.

The CDR "Physics and Detectors at CLIC"

This volume of the CDR has been reviewed by an International Committee in 2011 and has been published in 2012. Details of the reviewing process are given below (link).
