Abstract

The physics motivation, accelerator science, plans for future facilities and major accelerator systems of electron-ion colliders are presented. The science enabled by these machines motivates the machine design with high luminosity and flexibility, and thus leads to new challenges in accelerator science. Innovative solutions, developed in order to achieve the objectives set for these machines, are described. Major accelerator systems and accelerator physics issues are also described, and references are provided for readers interested in greater detail.
