Abstract

A Tau-Charm Factory (τcF) is a high luminosity e+e− circular collider working in the energy range of the J/ψ resonance and τ-lepton production threshold. A τcF would continue mining the rich seam of physics opened up by SPEAR at SLAC (Stanford) and further explored by BEPC (Beijing). Since the first proposal in 1987 [1, 2], a number of designs for such a collider have been produced. As the requirements of the physics community have evolved, these designs have become more complex and now make essential use of some of the most interesting concepts proposed in the 30-year history of e+e− storage rings. While some of these were first mooted many years ago, a τcF is almost certainly going to be the first opportunity to put them into practice. Ideas such as monochromatization and longitudinal polarization were previously somewhat compromised by being conceived as modifications of existing storage rings. From the point of view of an accelerator physicist, a τcF presents not only a particularly demanding challenge in the performance required but also an exciting opportunity to work these elegant, yet untried, ideas into the design from the outset.
