Also displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:lumi} are the
expected instantaneous luminosity expected for two linear collider projects, ILC~\cite{cite:ILCTDR} and CLIC~\cite{cite:CLICDR}, as a function of the centre-of-mass energy. It is remarkable that the luminosity expected at TLEP is between one and three orders of magnitude larger that that expected for a linear collider, at all centre-of-mass energies from the Z pole to the $\ttbar$ threshold, where precision measurements are to be made, hence where the accumulated statistics will be a key feature : TLEP is therefore in a unique position to perform these measurements with a meaningful accuracy. The access to the high-energy frontier is discussed in Section~\ref{sec:VHE-LHC} for both the linear and the circular colliders.
Upgrading the luminosity beyond the values given above is
not impossible also being investigated -- although it cannot be guaranteed today. The goal is to eliminate
other the sources
of limiting the beam life time
other than the particle-particle interactions
themselves, and themselves. One could then
to increase
those the luminosoty (for example by reducing the beam size) until the injector capacity is saturated. Since at present the lifetime caused by interactions is estimated to be 16 minutes (1000 seconds), a
gain factor of
up to 10 in luminosity
can might in principle be
gained envisaged if injection every 10 seconds of 10\% of the beam is possible.
The A solution that comes to mind is to eliminate beamstrahlung by means of "charge compensation", in which each beam would be accompanied with an additional beam of the opposite charge. While this was tried with limited success in Orsay, this technique might be applicable with improved beam controls -- this possibility and the implications for the accelerator design will be investigated as a possible upgrade path of the machine.
