Description

We highlight a number of activities that leverage the expertise and facilities of the Advanced Accelerator community for near-term collider R&D, with a specific emphasis on the FCC-ee. These activities include 1) pulse-to-pulse charge tuning for an RF gun, 2) emittance preservation in an injector linac, 3) laser-based collimation and control of high-energy beams, and 4) the application of Particle-in-Cell (PIC) codes for beam-beam collisions and strong field QED (SFQED) studies. FACET-II recently hosted users from CERN to test linac tuning algorithms that will be deployed in the FCC-ee injector. FACET-II is also supporting a laser-based collimation experiment that leverages the existing E-320 SFQED experimental infrastructure.
