High Energy Colliders
We consider the high energy advantages, disadvantages and luminosity
requirements of hadrons, leptons and photon-photon colliders. Technical
problems in obtaining increased energy in each type of machine are presented.
The machines relative size are also discussed.Comment: LaTeX, 27 pages, 8 figures (eps, ps). Submitted to the Proceedings of

High Luminosity Muon Collider Design
Muon Colliders have unique technical and physics advantages and disadvantages
when compared with both hadrons and electron machines. They should be regarded
as complementary. Parameters are given of a 4 TeV high luminosity muon-muon
collider, and of a 0.5 TeV demonstration machine. We discuss the various
systems in such muon collider.Comment: LaTeX 5 pages 4 figure
Future Colliders
The high energy physics advantages, disadvantages and luminosity requirements
of hadrons, of leptons and photon-photon colliders are considered. Technical
arguments for increased energy in each type of machine are presented. Their
relative size, and the implications of size on cost are discussed.Comment: LaTeX, 10 pages, 10figure
6D Muon Ionization Cooling with an Inverse Cyclotron
A large admittance sector cyclotron filled with LiH wedges surrounded by
helium or hydrogen gas is explored. Muons are cooled as they spiral
adiabatically into a central swarm. As momentum approaches zero, the momentum
spread also approaches zero. Long bunch trains coalesce. Energy loss is used to
inject the muons into the outer rim of the cyclotron. The density of material
in the cyclotron decreases adiabatically with radius. The sector cyclotron
magnetic fields are transformed into an azimuthally symmetric magnetic bottle
in the center. Helium gas is used to inhibit muonium formation by positive
muons. Deuterium gas is used to allow captured negative muons to escape via the
muon catalyzed fusion process. The presence of ionized gas in the center may
automatically neutralize space charge. When a bunch train has coalesced into a
central swarm, it is ejected axially with an electric kicker pulse.Comment: Five pages. LaTeX, three postscript figure files. To appear in the

Cogeneration Technology Alternatives Study (CTAS). Volume 3: Industrial processes
Cogenerating electric power and process heat in single energy conversion systems rather than separately in utility plants and in process boilers is examined in terms of cost savings. The use of various advanced energy conversion systems are examined and compared with each other and with current technology systems for their savings in fuel energy, costs, and emissions in individual plants and on a national level. About fifty industrial processes from the target energy consuming sectors were used as a basis for matching a similar number of energy conversion systems that are considered as candidate which can be made available by the 1985 to 2000 time period. The sectors considered included food, textiles, lumber, paper, chemicals, petroleum, glass, and primary metals. The energy conversion systems included steam and gas turbines, diesels, thermionics, stirling, closed cycle and steam injected gas turbines, and fuel cells. Fuels considered were coal, both coal and petroleum based residual and distillate liquid fuels, and low Btu gas obtained through the on site gasification of coal. An attempt was made to use consistent assumptions and a consistent set of ground rules specified by NASA for determining performance and cost. Data and narrative descriptions of the industrial processes are given
Muon Collider: Introduction and status
Parameters are given of machines with center-of-mass (CoM) energies of 3 TeV and 400 GeV but, besides a comment on neutrino radiation, the paper concentrates on progress on the design of a machine to operate at a light Higgs mass, assumed, for this study, to be 100 GeV (CoM)
