linear collider

In 2018, the council concluded that the expected scientific payoff from the proposed International Linear Collider, a giant physics facility Japan hopes to host, was too small to justify the estimated $7 billion cost.

The nearest-term possibility for such a Higgs factory is the International Linear Collider, which would be built in Japan.

To reach this energy with our existing acceleration technology would require a linear collider 10,000 light-years in length.

The needed tool to reveal its nature may be a new collider—something many physicists are clamoring for via proposals such as the International Linear Collider and the High-Luminosity LHC.

In the early 2000s, discussions centered on a 30-kilometer-long, straight-shot, linear collider that would smash electrons into positrons.
