Objetivo
We propose a three-year Design Study (DS) to contribute to the critical R&D for the proposed International Linear electron-positron Collider (ILC), operating at the centre-of-mass energy frontier of 500-1000 GeV. The DS will help lay the foundation f or a future research facility of worldwide relevance. The Study addresses high-ranking critical issues identified by an international evaluation team - the ILC-TRC - and focuses on those issues that are largely independent of the acceleration technology. Within the same context, the DS will also support in part critical R&D for a possible multi-TeV facility (beyond the ILC). To reach the ambitious luminosity goals, ultra-low emittance beams have to be brought into collision. The Study specifically explores beam delivery schemes, damping rings and questions related to the metrology and stabilisation. The diagnostics required to monitor beams of a few nanometres is likewise addressed. A linear collider affords the possibility to collide two polaris ed beams; this Study addresses the efficient production of polarised positrons using undulators and the required polarimetry. The ILC will be realised as an international effort that will profit from the availability of new technologies for communicatio n and remote operations. The Study will form part of the European contribution to the design of the ILC, and as such will complement similar efforts in Asia and the Americas.
