HIGGS FACTORY AT THE GREEK-TURKISH BORDER: A REGIONAL PROJECT

We would like to propose the construction of the photon collider based "Higgs factory" in the coming years at the Greek-Turkish border, starting from its test facility with a high energy photon beam. This proposal was among the contributions to the Open Symposium of the ESPG’12. We would like to propose the construction of the photon collider based "Higgs factory" in the coming years at the Greek-Turkish border, starting from its test facility with a high energy photon beam. The photon beams are to be obtained via the inverse Compton scattering of fiber laser photons of high energy electron beams. Photon electron collisions at high energies would be a bonus of this machine. This proposal (http://indico.cern.ch/event/175067/contributions/284345/) was among the contributions to the Open Symposium of the ESPG’12 (Open Symposium - European Strategy Preparatory Group, 2012, Krakow, Poland )
