| dc.description | We consider a highly unconventional approach to generating muon and antimuon bunches for a neutrino factory or muon collider: electron-positron annihilation just above muon-antimuon threshold. This approach can produce low-emittance bunches at high energy, easing the muon-cooling and acceleration challenges in such facilities. However, the small (< 1 $μ$b) useable production cross section means that extraordinary beam-power and targeting challenges would have to be met. We speculate on what this might entail. | |
