Laser-plasmaaccelerators also intrinsically accelerate short particle bunches,several orders of magnitude shorter than that of conventionaltechnology, which leads to reductions in beamstrahlung and, hence,savings in the overall power consumption to reach a desiredluminosity. These properties make laser-plasma accelerators apromising accelerator technology for a more compact, less expensivehigh-energy linear collider providing multi-TeV polarized leptons.In this submission to the Snowmass 2021 Accelerator Frontier, wediscuss the motivation for a laser-plasma-accelerator-based linearcollider, the status of the field, and potential linear colliderconcepts up to 15 TeV. We outline the research and developmentpath toward a collider based on laser-plasma accelerator technology,and highlight near-term and mid-term applications of this technologyon the collider development path. The required experimentalfacilities to carry out this research are described. We concludewith community recommendations developed during Snowmass.
