AbstractThe muon collider concept promises a unique opportunity to push the energy frontier in particle physics. The large muon mass suppresses synchrotron radiation and allows the acceleration and collision of the beams in rings and the use of technology more similar to hadron colliders. Muons are point-like, in contrast to protons, and thus can achieve a similar physics reach with less energy, allowing for a more compact machine. However muons have a lifetime of only 2.2 microseconds at rest. The muon beam thus needs to be cooled and accelerated rapidly to maximise the luminosity, which creates several technology challenges. The International Muon Collider Collaboration is implementing an intense R&D programme to address these challenges and to develop the concept maturity. The presentation will highlight the key challenges, summarise the progress of the work and the proposed R&D plan for the next decade. Also initial studies of possible sites are included.
