abstract = {This Conceptual Design Report describes LUXE (Laser Und
XFEL Experiment), an experimental campaign that aims to
combine the high-quality and high-energy electron beam of
the European XFEL with a powerful laser to explore the
uncharted terrain of quantum electrodynamics characterised
by both high energy and high intensity. We will reach this
hitherto inaccessible regime of quantum physics by analysing
high-energy electron-photon and photon-photon interactions
in the extreme environment provided by an intense laser
focus. The physics background and its relevance are
presented in the science case which in turn leads to, and
justifies, the ensuing plan for all aspects of the
experiment: Our choice of experimental parameters allows (i)
effective field strengths to be probed at and beyond the
Schwinger limit and (ii) a precision to be achieved that
permits a detailed comparison of the measured data with
calculations. In addition, the high photon flux predicted
will enable a sensitive search for new physics beyond the
Standard Model. The initial phase of the experiment will
employ an existing 40 TW laser, whereas the second phase
will utilise an upgraded laser power of 300 TW. All
expectations regarding the performance of the experimental
set-up as well as the expected physics results are based on
detailed numerical simulations throughout.},
