Towards the Muon Collider Detectors

A Muon Collider with the centre-of-mass energy of 3 to 10 TeV has gained a lot of interest in the recent years thanks to its unique combination of high energy reach, clean final states and low environmental footprint. However, as muons are unstable particles such a machine will be accompanied with technological challenges for a collider experiment: an unprecedented amount of secondary and tertiary decay products will enter the detector volume. The detector design, choice of technology, and reconstruction algorithms are therefore heavily influenced by the 'beam-induced background'. In this talk we describe the challenge, present the initial detector concept and full simulation studies of data reconstruction performance, and demonstrate that high quality physics is possible in the muon collider environment.
