Linear Collider TPC development

国际直线对撞机（International Linear Collider，ILC）[1]是继欧洲核子研究中心（CERN）的p-p对撞机LHC之后，被提议用于粒子物理学的下一代e+ e世界设施。500 GeV ILC目前处于高级规划阶段，加速器设计允许未来将能量升级到1 TeV。ILC参考设计报告（RDR）与ILC加速器的基线设计和四个物理探测器的设计概念于2007年8月发布。目标是在2010年之前向国际供资机构提交工程设计报告，其中包括ILC机器的费用和两个经批准的探测器的设计，以便及时获得LHC结果。在下一个十年结束之前，ILC用于物理数据采集没有技术障碍

The International Linear Collider (ILC) [1] is the proposed next generation e+ e- world facility for particle physics after the CERN p-p collider LHC. The 500 GeV ILC is presently in advanced planning stage with the accelerator design permitting a future upgrade in energy to 1 TeV. The ILC Reference Design Report (RDR) with the baseline design for the ILC accelerator and design concepts for four detectors for physics was released in August 2007. The goal is to submit the engineering design report with costs for the ILC machine and the design for two approved detectors to the international funding agencies for approval by 2010 in time for LHC results. There are no technological hurdles to ILC being operational for physics data taking by the end of the next decade
