Electron beam for LHC

A method of delivering a small energy spread electron beam to the LHC interaction points is proposed. In this method, heavy ions are used as carriers of projectile electrons. Acceleration, storage and collision-stability aspects of such a hybrid beam is discussed and a new beam-cooling method is presented. This discussion is followed by a proposal of the Parasitic Ion-Electron collider at LHC (PIE@LHC). The PIE@LHC provides an opportunity, for the present LHC detectors, to enlarge the scope of their research program by including the program of electron-proton and electron-nucleus collisions with minor machine and detector investments.
