Availability assurance in the future circular electron-positron collider (FCC-ee)

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Future Circular Electron-Positron Collider (FCC-ee) is CERN’s leading proposal for the next generation of energy-frontier particle accelerators. At 91 km long, it is ambitious in size, complexity and technical objectives. Availability is a main challenge. This paper presents results from a Monte Carlo simulation that extrapolates reliability and maintain-ability from systems in current working accelerators to the FCC-ee. Significant integrated luminosity shortfall appears in all energy modes due to low availability and operational efficiency. The primary contributors are highlighted, exposing several compelling R&D opportunities.
