Conceptual Design Report

The CLIC Conceptual Design Report (CDR) summarizes the concept of a Linear Collider based on the CLIC technology, its physics case and the expected performance and design of the physics detectors.

Cover volume 1

Volume 1 “A multi TeV Linear Collider based on CLIC Technology” provides detailed descriptions of the accelerator layout, its components and the expected performance of the CLIC machine. In particular, it describes technical solutions to the key feasibility issues, thus proving the validity of the CLIC concept. Prototypes of many of the technical subsystems have been successfully tested at the CLIC test facility at CERN and at other facilities around the world. Power, schedules and civil engineering issues are also covered.
