Photon colliders (gamma-gamma, gamma-e) are based on backward Compton scattering of laser light off the high energy electrons of linear colliders. Recent study has shown that the gamma-gamma luminosity in the high energy peak can reach…
Interest in highly-compressed electron beams has been increasing in recent times, driven by the study of non-linear and even non-perturbative aspects of QED [2]. The FACET-II [7] facility at SLAC is currently (at the time of writing) being…
The Supper Proton-Proton Collider is a next-generation hadron collider that is now being designed. A baseline design aims for a peak luminosity of about 1*10^35 cm^-2 s^-1. The focus of this article is the effect of beam-beam interactions…
We review some of the reactions which can be studied in the $e^-e^-$ mode of a linear collider and may reveal aspects of physics beyond the realm of the standard model. The complementarity to $e^+e^-$ scattering is stressed.
We study the gauge link contribution to the dipole type transverse momentum dependent distributions of coherent photons, which is conventionally referred to as the Coulomb correction. We further propose to search for the evidence of the…
A precise determination of absolute luminosity, using the bremsstrahlung process, at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will be very demanding, and its three major challenges are discussed herein. First, the bremsstrahlung rate…

Following the decision to reduce the L* from 4.4 m to 4.1 m, the BeamCal had to be moved closer to the interaction point. Results of a study of how this affects the beamstrahlung and backward scattering backgrounds show that the e+e- pair…
