A Muon Collider represents a very interesting possibility for a future machine to explore the energy frontier in particle physics. However, to reach the needed luminosity, beam intensities of the order of 109–1012 muons per bunch are needed. In this context, the Beam-Induced Background must be taken into account for its effects on magnets and detector. Several mitigation strategies can however be conceived. In this view, it is of crucial importance to develop a flexible tool that allows to easily reconstruct the machine geometry in a Monte Carlo code, allowing to simulate in detail the interaction of muon decay products in the machine, while being able to change the machine optics itself to find the best configuration. In this contribution, a possible approach to such a purpose is presented, based on FLUKA for the Monte Carlo simulation and on LineBuilder for the geometry reconstruction. Results based on the 1.5 TeV machine optics developed by the MAP collaboration are discussed, as well as a first approach to possible mitigation strategies.

A muon collider offers a unique opportunity for high-energy, high-luminosity lepton collisions and could push the frontiers of particle physics by providing excellent discovery reach with excellent precision. A scheme has been developed by the MAP collaboration. The updated European Strategy for Particle Physics recommended the development of an Accelerator R&D Roadmap for Europe and CERN Council has charged the LDG to develop it. LDG has initiated panels to provide input including one on the use of muon beams, in particular in view of a high-energy, high luminosity muon collider. A new international collaboration, is forming to develop a muon collider design and address the associated challenges, which are mainly due to the limited muon lifetime. The focus is on two energy ranges, around 3 TeV and above 10 TeV. Ambitious magnets, RF systems, targets and shielding are key for the design.
