A second collider in the CERN LEP tunnel for pp (pp) and ep physics in the multitev energy range

Abstract
The LEP collider at present under construction at CERN will provide e9 e9 collisions in four large detectors, initially at a centre of mass energy of 110 GeV to be gradually increased to ˜ 200 GeV by means of superconducting r.f. cavities. First beam is planned for the end of 1988. The tunnel has a circumference of ˜ 27 km and can house a second collider on top of the present one, designated as Large Hadron Collider (LHC)1 (Figs. 1 and 2).
