Abstract

We consider the possibility of observing deviations from the Standard Model gauge-boson self-couplings at a future 500500~GeV e+ee^+ e^- linear collider. We concentrate on the case in which the electroweak symmetry breaking sector is strongly interacting and there are no new resonances within reach of the collider. We find a sensitivity to the anomalous couplings that is two orders of magnitude higher than that achievable at LEP II. We also show how a polarized electron beam extends the reach of the collider, allowing experiments to probe different directions in parameter space.
