Abstract
In this report the overview of activity at existing and future electron-positron high energy colliders at BINP is presented. VEPP-2000 and VEPP-4M electron-positron colliders are currently being in operation at the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics in Novosibirsk. These two machines cover a wide collision energy range: from 0.32 GeV to 2 GeV (VEPP-2000) and from 1.8 GeV to 11 GeV (VEPP-4M). Both complexes will be upgraded after successful start of operation in 2013 of the new electron-positron injector complex VEPP-5, which should supply both facilities by much more intense beams. Super-tau-charm factory waits for the final government's approval being considered as one of 6 mega-science project in Russia.
Highlights
VEPP-2000 Overview VEPP-20001 was designed for one-by-one bunch operation with two interaction points
Two of the straight sections are occupied by the CMD-3 and SND detectors along with final focus 13 T superconducting solenoids, the third is used for injection, and the single-mode RF cavity is placed in the fourth
The first beam was injected into VEPP-2000 in the end of 2007 without final focus solenoids
Summary
The first beam was injected into VEPP-2000 in the end of 2007 without final focus solenoids. After installation of the final focus solenoids, the first luminosity runs were done in January 2010. VEPP-2000 began high energy physics program in the end of 2010 and finished its third experimental season in July of 2013. Main limitation comes from the need to do ramping directly in the collider ring when it operates above 825 MeV per beam.
