We present a candidate design for a high-energy high luminosity μ⁺-μ collider, with E{sub cm} = 4 TeV, L = 10³⁴ cm{sup −2}S{sup −1}, using only existing technology. The design uses a rapid-cycling medium-energy proton synchrotron, which produces proton beam pulses which are focused onto two π- producing targets, with two π-decay transport lines producing μ⁺′s and μ{sup −}′. The μ′s are collected, rf-rotated, cooled and compressed into a recirculating linac for acceleration, and then transferred into a storage ring collider. The keys to high luminosity are maximal μ collection and cooling; innovations with these goals are included.
