A proposed electron–positron <linear collider> based on superconducting RF acceleration. The 2007 reference design relevant to an exam-era comparison targeted $500$ GeV centre-of-mass energy and peak <collider luminosity> $2\times10^{34}\,\mathrm{cm^{-2}s^{-1}}$, with approximately $31$ km total footprint. These are historical design parameters, not achieved machine performance. https://arxiv.org/abs/0712.2361[ILC Reference Design Report, Volume 3—Accelerator, abstract]{ref}
