[C1.002] Linear Collider: Accelerator Overview
Peter Tenenbaum (SLAC)
In recent years a consensus has emerged supporting the
construction of a linear collider in the 0.5--1.0 TeV
center-of-mass energy range as the "next big thing" in high
energy physics. We will review the technological challenges
inherent in bringing such a facility to fruition, and the
progress which has been made in meeting these challenges. In
particular, the advantages, disadvantages, and state of
development of the two leading contenders for the main linac
technology in the next-generation linear collider --
low-frequency superconducting and high-frequency
room-temperature -- will be discussed. Finally, we will
consider the progress made in developing simulation tools
for studying the performance of linear colliders as
integrated systems, and present several examples of such
"cradle to grave" simulators.

[C1.004] Where Machine and Detector Meet
Eric Torrence (University of Oregon)
The interface between detector and machine provides many
interesting and challenging physics problems at a linear
collider. From simply keeping the nanometer-sized beams in
collision to safely extracting the high power disrupted
beams with minimal detector backgrounds, the design of the
interaction region is critical to the future physics
performance of the linear collider program. In addition, the
distinct advantage of a high-energy e^+e^- linear
collider for making precision measurements is the well
defined initial state in the collision process. This
advantage can only be realized, however, if there is
adequate instrumentation available at the interaction point
to provide a detailed understanding of the colliding beam
properties. In this talk, the current worldwide program for
IP design is reviewed, along with strategies for
understanding the luminosity, energy, and polarization of
the colliding beams.
