The collision between their typical pulses of high energy protons and X-ray photons opens a collider scenario with potentials for luminosities in excess of 10³⁸ s⁻¹*cm⁻², adequate to generate TeV-class pion, muon, neutrino and photon beams with very high phase space densities. We report results based on Monte Carlo simulations of such a hadron-photon collider*, aiming at qualifying the features of these secondary beams in view of experiments to be performed directly, or towards the design of a new kind of muon collider.
