  We summarize the potentialities of combining two well developed technologies, which are advancing the frontiers of hadron colliders and of light sources, namely the hadron colliders for high energy physics, and the FELs for applied and fundamental science with light, towards the generation of secondary beams with unprecedented characteristics. 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.
