TESLA-HERA Linac-Ring e-p Collider Option

Reinhard Brinkmann, DESY

If the TESLA e+e- linear collider is constructed next to an existing high energy proton storage ring, an electron-proton collider option for this future facility could become attractive. In this talk the version of TESLA vs. HERA-p with a center-of-mass energy of about 1 TeV (250 GeV(e-)*1000GeV(p)) is discussed. Basic machine parameters, achievable luminosity (several 10^30cm^-2s^-1) and possibilities for performance improvements (flat beams, travelling focus, cooling) are presented.
