Description
Compact collider designs---the Cool Copper Collider for a Higgs factory and the muon collider to reach the 10 TeV parton scale---emerged during Snowmass as a promising path for the future. I will briefly present the benefits of these options, which utilize power-efficient, innovative technology that can scale to even higher energies beyond the next generation of experiments. P5 support for accelerator R&D to pursue the viability of these new colliders is crucial for the health of the field as we start to look toward the post-LHC era. I will specifically discuss the budgetary perspective, informed by my role as Deputy Chair of Government Relations for the Fermilab Users Executive Committee.
