PLANS FOR UTILIZING THE CORNELL ELECTRON STORAGE RING AS A TEST ACCELERATOR FOR ILC DAMPING RING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

摘要

Beginning in April 2008, we propose to employ the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) in a program of research and development for the International Linear Collider (ILC) Damping Rings (DR). This paper provides an update on the conceptual design issues for the CESR reconfiguration and details of the experimental program that will follow.
