Description
Summary:Abstract This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the Machine Detector Interface (MDI) design developed for the FCC-ee Feasibility Study. It highlights novel studies related to the lightweight interaction region, including a mechanical model of the vacuum chambers, integration of the vertex detector, the MDI alignment system, and assessments of machine-induced backgrounds. The small beam pipe radius and thickness, as well as the high power to be dissipated, require state-of-the-art mechanical design. The integration of all mechanical elements and detectors is challenging, necessitating careful studies to allow fulfilling conflicting requirements. The optimisation of the machine detector interface against formidable backgrounds is presented.
