Abstract :
The International Linear Collider is planned as the next energy-frontier electron-positron accelerator. The main linacs of the collider are based on superconducting radio-frequency cavity technology, and will accelerate electron and positron beams up to 250 + 250 GeV at the center-of-mass energy. Based on the Reference Design Report issued in 2007, the ILC Global Design Effort has moved into the Technical Design phase. This paper describes the status of the design, R&D efforts, and plans of the superconducting RF cavity for the ILC.
