Event Rates at a 10 TeV Muon Collider and Implications for Detector Design: Trigger, Data Acquisition, and Luminosity

TL;DR

This paper discusses the expected event rates at a 10 TeV muon collider, analyzing how these rates impact detector design, trigger systems, data acquisition, and luminosity measurement strategies.

Contribution

It provides the first detailed estimate of process rates at a 10 TeV muon collider and explores their implications for detector and trigger system design.

Findings

High event rates will challenge detector readout systems.

Trigger and data acquisition systems need optimization for high-rate environments.

Implications for luminosity measurement strategies are discussed.

Abstract

This short document presents a discussion of rates of a wide range of processes at a muon collider. The goal is to provide a first look at what will fill the detector, how often processes of interest are occurring, and the implications for detector readout, a potential trigger system, and luminosity measurements.
