Also displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:lumi} are the 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 Luminosity upgrades well beyond the values given above
is are also being investigated -- although
it they cannot be guaranteed today.
The goal is to eliminate the sources limiting the beam life time other than the particle-particle interactions themselves. One could then Possibilities include an order-of-magnitude increase
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 might in principle be envisaged if injection every 10 seconds of 10\% of the
top-off injection rate and/or beam
is possible. A solution that comes to mind is to eliminate beamstrahlung by means of "charge compensation", charge compensation, as discussed in
which each beam would be accompanied with an additional beam of Ref.~\cite{cite:1305.6498}. The access to the
