High energy Photon Collider Ilya F. Ginzburg, Gleb L. Kotkin Hide abstract | Show figures | Show BibTeX | Show discussion | View PDF | 1910.13961v2 We discuss a high-energy photon linear collider (HE PLC) based on the e+e− linear collider with cms electron energy 2E=1÷2 TeV (JLC, CLIC,...). This energy region was previously considered hopeless for experiment. On the contrary, the present study leads to a rather optimistic conclusions. We compare properties of HE PLC with those of the usually discussed {\it standard PLC} with E≈250 GeV. We show that at the optimal choice of laser the high-energy \ggam luminosity integral is about 1/5, and the maximum luminosity is about 1/4 from similar values for the standard PLC. For this choice, the laser flash energy and laser-optical system should be approximately the same as those prepared for the standard PLC. The photon spectrum of HE PLC is much more monochromatic than that in the standard PLC, it is concentrated near the high-energy limit with an energy spread of about 5\%. It will be well separated from the low energy part. Authors' comments: 25 pages, 12 figures, 7 tables
