A proposed very high energy electron-proton collider, VHEeP

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

The possibility of using plasma wakefield acceleration to build a very high energy electron-proton (VHEeP) collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 9 TeV was presented at the DIS2015 workshop. In this talk, the physics case was further developed and the idea has since been published as a journal paper. A brief summary is here given along with some details of the technical aspects not covered in the paper, which focused on the physics motivation. It is demonstrated that an epep collider with a centre-of-mass energy a factor of 30 above HERA has sensitivity to new physical phenomena.
