Abstract

We discuss a low energy e+ee^+e^- collider for production of the not yet observed (μ+μ\mu^+\mu^-) bound system (dimuonium). Collider with large crossing angle for e+ee^+e^- beams intersection produces dimuonium with non-zero momentum, therefore, its decay point is shifted from the beam collision area providing effective suppression of the elastic e+ee^+e^- scattering background. The experimental constraints define subsequent collider specifications. We show preliminary layout of the accelerator and obtained main parameters. High luminosity in chosen beam energy range allows to study π±\pi^\pm and η\eta -mesons.
