Description
We quantify the physics potential of various beam configurations for 10 TeV wakefield colliders, including the impact of beam-beam interactions. We study e+e- and e-e- colliders with round and flat beams, as well as a \gamma\gamma collider. Though large beam-beam interactions tend to increase the Standard Model backgrounds, we find that these backgrounds can usually be mitigated on the analysis level. In addition, beam-beam interactions tend to enhance the signal of beyond the standard model physics and present new discovery opportunities.
