| Sumario: | We examine through numerical calculation the collision of counter-propagating trains of optically spaced electron or positron microbunches in a 1 TeV collider scenario for a dielectric laser accelerator. A time-dependent envelope equation is derived for arbitrary number of bunches in the classical limit, with inclusion of the radiation reaction force. Example parameters are examined based on a constrained luminosity relation that takes into account the bunch charge for optimal efficiency, material damage limits, and power constraints. We find that for initially identical counter-propagating Gaussian bunch trains, the periodic temporal structure leads to a peak in luminosity with number of bunches. For longer bunch trains, the enhancement then decreases inversely with number of bunches. The corresponding fractional energy loss of the beam is found to be of order 1.75%, which is reduced to 0.35% when the nonlinear radial dependence of the transverse force is included, with an average beamstrahlung parameter of 0.075, an important result considering that beamstrahlung losses are a critical concern for future TeV colliders. |
