Precise knowledge of all beam parameters is crucial to fully exploit the physics potential of the International Linear Collider (ILC). A sufficiently accurate measurement of the beam polarisation can only be achieved using dedicated high…
We present a study of the sensitivity of an International Linear Collider (ILC) to electroweak parameters in the absence of a light Higgs boson. In particular, we consider those parameters that have been inaccessible at previous colliders,…
Measurements of electroweak precision observables at future electron-positron colliders, such as the CEPC, FCC-ee, and ILC, will be sensitive to physics at multi-TeV scales. To achieve this sensitivity, precise predictions for the Standard…
Detections of the cross correlation signal between the 21cm signal during reionization and high-redshift Lyman Alpha emitters (LAEs) are subject to observational uncertainties which mainly include systematics associated with radio…
New heavy neutral gauge bosons Z' are predicted by many models of physics beyond the Standard Model. It is quite possible that Z's are heavy enough to lie beyond the discovery reach of the CERN Large Hadron Collider LHC, in which case only…
We review the ILC capabilities to explore the electroweak (EW) sector of the SM at high precision and the prospects of unveiling signals of BSM physics, either through the presence of new particles in higher-order corrections or via direct…
The prospects of measuring triple gauge couplings in W pair production at future linear colliders with transverse beam polarisation are studied. We consider CP conserving and CP violating couplings with both real and imaginary parts. The…
We discuss the potential of a $0.5\hskip 2pt TeV$ linear collider to explore manifestations of extended (or alternative) electroweak models of current interest, through measurements of the reaction $e^+e^-\to W^+W^-$ with both initial and…
This paper is an updated version of the invited plenary talk given at the XXII Physics in Collision Conference at Stanford, (June 2002). The measurements performed at LEP and SLC have substantially improved the precision of the tests of the…
To resolve the long-standing discrepancy between the precision measurement of bottom quark forward-backward asymmetry at LEP/SLC and the Standard Model prediction, we propose a novel method to probe the $Zb\bar{b}$ coupling by measuring the…
Interest in highly-compressed electron beams has been increasing in recent times, driven by the study of non-linear and even non-perturbative aspects of QED [2]. The FACET-II [7] facility at SLAC is currently (at the time of writing) being…
In this note, I examine the possible consequences for high energy colliders of a Z-prime interpretation of the LHCb anomaly observed in the K*mu+mu- final state. Two examples are elaborated in the framework of the so-called 331 model. In…
We investigate the potential to measure the electro-weak couplings of scalar leptoquarks $\Phi_s$ at TESLA for energies in the range of $\sqrt{s} \simeq 1 \TeV$ using the pair production process $e^+e^- \to \Phi_s \bar{\Phi}_s$.
We performed a detailed analysis of the process $e^+e^-\to \ell \nu q\bar{q}'$ where we included all tree level Feynman diagrams that contribute to this final state. We studied the sensitivity of this process to anomalous trilinear gauge…
The process $e^- e^+ \to \tau^- \tau^+$ is of particular interest because the tau lepton polarisation can be reconstructed, allowing its chiral nature to be probed. This note reports on a study of the reconstruction of the di-tau final…
The parity violating but CP conserving anomalous three-gauge-boson coupling $g_5^Z$ induces a universal contribution to the left-handed coupling of the $Z$ boson to fermions. We find that the LEP measurements of the partial $Z$ widths and…
Lepton flavor violation in the $\tau\mu$ sector would be a clear sign of Beyond Standard Model physics. We employ the SMEFT framework to study the process $e^+e^-\to\tau\mu$ at the ILC and CLIC. We find that the $e^+e^-$ beam polarizations…
We suggest the use of a universality-breaking observable based on lepton asymmetries as derived from the left-right asymmetry and the $\tau$ polarization at the $Z$ peak, which can efficiently constrain the parameter space of unified…
In this paper we describe a method of luminosity measurement at the future linear collider ILC that estimates and corrects for the impact of the dominant sources of systematic uncertainty originating from the beam-induced effects and the…
We study the $h \gamma Z$ coupling, which is a loop induced coupling in the Standard Model (SM), to probe new physics. In a global fit based on the SM Effective Field Theory, measurement of the SM $h \gamma Z$ coupling can provide a very…
