Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider Studies at Fermilab


Welcome to the neutrino factory / muon collider feasibility study group home page at Fermilab. The neutrino factory / muon collider collaboration currently consists of about 100 physicists from 27 institutions. The primary goal of the collaboration is to assess the feasibility and potential of high energy high luminosity muon colliders operating at a center-of-mass energy in the range 100 GeV - 4 TeV. The high intensity muon source needed for muon colliders can also be used to feed a muon storage ring neutrino source (neutrino factory). Neutrino factories provide a possible path towards a muon collider.
