Limit on a horizontal emittance in high energy muon colliders due to synchrotron radiation

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that at a 100 TeV muon collider, synchrotron radiation imposes a fundamental limit on the minimum achievable horizontal emittance, affecting collider design and performance.

Contribution

It provides a quantitative analysis of how synchrotron radiation constrains the horizontal emittance in high-energy muon colliders.

Findings

Synchrotron radiation sets a lower bound on emittance at 100 TeV.

The minimum emittance is determined by radiation effects.

Implications for collider design and optimization.

Abstract

It is shown that at a 100 TeV muon collider the synchrotron radiation in the ring will determine the minimum horizontal emittance.
