Abstract :
We describe the scheme of a photon-nucleon collider where high energy photons generated by Compton back-scattering off a CLIC electron beam, at either 75 GeV or 1.5 TeV are collided with protons or ions stored in LHC. Different design constraints for such a collider are discussed and achievable luminosity performance is estimated.
