      Most muon production mechanisms at nuclear particle facilities use protons on targets. At the EIC, there is an alternative, namely the possibility to use the high energy electron beam to backscatter laser photons onto targets to produce the muons. We describe this mechanism for the EIC electron kinematic regime and possible applications of the muons produced. In addition, we provide an...

    5. 6. State of Laser Technology/Laser Focusing and Control
      Peter Delfyett (CREOL, The College of Optics & Photonics, Univ. Central Florida)
      05/04/2023, 10:40

      This presentation will review the current state of the art of laser technology, spanning the extremes of both ultrafast and high power, that have the potential to be used laser based accelerator technology.

    6. 21. Accelerator-driven Compton gamma-ray source: High Intensity Gamma-ray Source
      Prof. Ying Wu (Duke University)
      05/04/2023, 11:10

      A nearly monochromatic, polarized gamma-ray beam is a powerful tool
      for nuclear physics research, ranging from collective motions to
      strong interactions between nucleons, and to the dynamics of quarks and gluons.
      Laser-driven Compton gamma-ray sources have been developed and operated
      worldwide since the late 1970s. The High Intensity Gamma-ray Source (HIGS)
      at the Triangle...

    7. 5. Gamma-Factory@CERN - status and perspectives
      Mieczyslaw Witold Krasny (Mieczyslaw.Witold.Krasny@cern.ch)
      05/04/2023, 11:40

      In this talk, I shall present the status of the Gamma Factory studies. I shall briefly summarise the potential applications of the Gamma Factory tools in many branches of science, discuss the accelerator and laser system requirements, and present the status of the Gamma Factory proof-of-principle SPS experiment preparations.

    9. 3. A Future Muon-Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory: Muon Accelerator Systems
      Ethan Cline (Stony Brook University)
      05/04/2023, 13:40

      There has been significant discussion in the community regarding a future $\mu^+\mu^-$ collider. While such a facility is still decades away from realization, it is also understood that significant technological development and feasibility demonstrations are necessary at lower beam energies. Here we propose such a possibility coupled with a rich physics program. We propose a future Muon-Ion...

    10. 9. Muon-Ion Collider: Physics Perspectives
      Darin Acosta (Rice University)
      05/04/2023, 14:10

      The development of muon accelerator and storage ring technology at the TeV scale provides enormous scientific potential not only for a mu+mu- collider, but also for deep inelastic scattering in a completely new regime when a TeV muon beam is brought into collision with a high-energy hadron beam. For example, if the Electron-Ion Collider at BNL were eventually upgraded with a TeV muon beam...

    11. 7. Gamma Factory High Intensity Muon Source - Exploratory Studies
      Armen Apyan (A. Alikhanyan National Laboraory (AANL) Yerevan, Armenia)
      05/04/2023, 14:40

      One of the fundamental challenges for the future leptonic colliders and neutrino factories is to design and construct new high-intensity sources of muons. The next-generation sources should increase the intensity of the presently operating ones by at least three orders of the magnitude and include an important option of producing longitudinally polarized muons. The main effort to achieve this...

    12. 4. MuIC Phenomenology & Exploring QCD in extreme kinematic regions
      Fredrick Olness (SMU)
      05/04/2023, 15:10

      The MuIC will enable precision measurements across a broad kinematic
      region. This will allow us to extend our explorations into extreme
      areas of QCD, pushing our perturbative predictions into the
      non-perturbative regime. These investigations include dense quark and
      parton distributions at low x and Q, which exhibit recombination and
      saturation. Such high-precision measurements will...
