Synchrotron radiation (SR) emission and interactions with the vacuum chamber walls have the potential to negatively impact the performance of future electron–positron colliders. The Beam Delivery ...System (BDS) of the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) contains weak bending and multipole magnets that lead to less intense emissions than at circular colliders with similar centre-of-mass energies. However, the linear geometry more easily allows for multiple reflections of SR photons, that can travel further downstream in the accelerator and impact the detector region. In this study, the results of PLACET and Synrad+ simulations of photon emissions and reflections in the CLIC BDS at two energy stages of 380GeV and 3TeV are presented. Estimates are given for heating and outgassing caused by SR photons interacting with the vacuum chamber in the BDS. The occupancy levels in the tracking detectors coming from full-detector simulations in Geant4 are presented. Optimised beam pipe apertures are proposed for the forward detector region, as well as mitigation methods to ensure the safety and best possible performance of the detector.
Synchrotron radiation (SR) reflction is an important issue for future linear colliders. High fluxes of SR might impact the performance of the detector, through irradiation of the forward luminosity ...and beam quality calorimeters or of the innermost layers of the vertex detector. The photon reflections depend on the beam pipe apertures' size, their shape, and materials used with various surface roughness. In this work, we present a study of SR including reflection for the 380GeV and 3 TeV beam parameters and optics of the Compact Linear Collider's Final Focus System. The simulations of the SR reections using the Synrad+ software are presented and the impact on the detector is discussed.
The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a proposed future high-luminosity linear electron-positron collider operating at three energy stages, with nominal centre-of-mass energies: 380 GeV, 1.5 TeV, and ...3 TeV. Its aim is to explore the energy frontier, providing sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) and precision measurements of Standard Model processes with an emphasis on Higgs boson and top-quark physics. The opportunities for top-quark physics at CLIC are discussed in this paper. The initial stage of operation focuses on top-quark pair production measurements, as well as the search for rare flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) top-quark decays. It also includes a top-quark pair production threshold scan around 350 GeV which provides a precise measurement of the top-quark mass in a well-defined theoretical framework. At the higher-energy stages, studies are made of top-quark pairs produced in association with other particles. A study of ttH production including the extraction of the top Yukawa coupling is presented as well as a study of vector boson fusion (VBF) production, which gives direct access to high-energy electroweak interactions. Operation above 1 TeV leads to more highly collimated jet environments where dedicated methods are used to analyse the jet constituents. These techniques enable studies of the top-quark pair production, and hence the sensitivity to BSM physics, to be extended to higher energies. This paper also includes phenomenological interpretations that may be performed using the results from the extensive top-quark physics programme at CLIC.

The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a high-energy high-luminosity linear electron-positron collider under development. It is foreseen to be built and operated in three stages, at centre-of-mass ...energies of 380 GeV, 1.5 TeV and 3 TeV, respectively. It offers a rich physics program including direct searches as well as the probing of new physics through a broad set of precision measurements of Standard Model processes, particularly in the Higgs-boson and top-quark sectors. The precision required for such measurements and the specific conditions imposed by the beam dimensions and time structure put strict requirements on the detector design and technology. This includes low-mass vertexing and tracking systems with small cells, highly granular imaging calorimeters, as well as a precise hit-time resolution and power-pulsed operation for all subsystems. A conceptual design for the CLIC detector system was published in 2012. Since then, ambitious R&D programmes for silicon vertex and tracking detectors, as well as for calorimeters have been pursued within the CLICdp, CALICE and FCAL collaborations, addressing the challenging detector requirements with innovative technologies. This report introduces the experimental environment and detector requirements at CLIC and reviews the current status and future plans for detector technology R&D.
