Main parameters of muon-proton and muon-nucleus colliders

Lepton-hadon collisions have played a critical role in our learning about the deep structure of matter: the structure of protons (form factors) and the quark-parton model were discovered in experiments scattering electrons from fixed targets. İlk elektron-proton çarpıştırıcısı HERA, güçlü etkileşimlerin dinamiklerini derinlemesine incelemiş ve Tevatron ve LHC deneylerini doğru şekilde yorumlamak için parton dağılım fonksiyonları (PDF) sağlamıştır. Unfortunately, the center-of-mass energy of HERA did not allow the study of the region critical for quantum chromodynamics (QCD) (very low xB and at the same time large Q2). Therefore, higher center-of-mass energy (> TeV) lepton-hadron colliders are needed. These colliders will also provide parton distribution functions for future energy frontier hadron colliders. Two options for energy frontier lepton-hadron colliders exist: linac-ring type eh colliders and ring-ring type μh colliders. In this thesis, the main parameters of the muon-hadron colliders proposed in recent years will be investigated. AloHEP software developed by TOBB ETÜ YEF group will be used in determining these.
