Electron-Positron Collider Design -- simulations from long proton driven beam to 125GeV witness electron and positron bunches

In this paper, the feasibility of the electron-positron collider based on plasma accelerator is proved by simulation experiments. Starting from the 17.612cm proton beam provided by SPS (super proton synchrotron), the simulation shows that the long proton beam can form several high quality proton bunches through seeded self-modulation in the first half of the long proton beam in a uniform plasma. Then we use these high-quality bunches to excite the wakefield in a uniform plasma and accelerate witness positrons and witness electrons. The simulation results show that the average energy of witness bunches after about 90 meters acceleration is about 125 GeV, and the average acceleration gradient is about 1.3 GeV/m. The center-of-mass (CoM) energy of positron-electron collision is about 125 GeV. The energy spread, witness particle survival rate, emittances and luminorsity of the output witness bunches are also discussed.
