Quantum Mechanics places limits on achievable transverse beam spot sizes of particle accelerators. We estimate this limit for a linear collider to be \Delta x > \hbar c f/E\delta_0 where f is the final focal length, E the beam energy, and…
We study the sensitivity of a 500 GeV $e^+e^-$ Linear Collider to $CP$ violating anomalous couplings. We find that with 50~fb$^{-1}$, and taking only one non-zero coupling at a time, the process $e^+e^-\to W^+ W^-$ can be used to place the…
We briefly review the studies on the top quark FCNC processes at a next-generation linear collider. Such processes, including various FCNC top quark rare decays and top-charm associated productions, are extremely suppressed in the standard…
We report on a study of the physics potential of linear $e^+e^-$ colliders. Although a linear collider (LC) would support a broad physics program, we focus on the contributions that could help elucidate the origin of electroweak symmetry…
The $e^+e^-\to\eta\gamma$ cross section is measured in the center-of-mass energy range from 1.07 to 2.00 GeV in the decay channel $\eta\to 3\pi^0$, $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$. The data set with an integrated luminosity of 242 pb$^{-1}$…
Using data samples collected by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the $e^+e^- \to K_{S}^{0}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}$ Born cross sections at center-of-mass energies between 3.8 and 4.6\,GeV, corresponding to a…
The forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{FB}$) in light-quark production is a sensitive probe of the electroweak sector and potential flavour-dependent BSM effects. We present a study of $e^+e^- \rightarrow s\bar{s}$ at $\sqrt{s}=250$ GeV at…

Selectrons may be studied in both e-e- and e+e- collisions at future linear colliders. Relative to e+e-, the e-e- mode benefits from negligible backgrounds and \beta threshold behavior for identical selectron pair production, but suffers…
We calculate the cross sections for the processes $e^+e^-\to \jpsi \eta$ and $e^+e^-\to \jpsi \eta^\prime$ at various CM energies $\sqrt{s}$. We first predict these cross sections by combining NRQCD with LC factorization. The predicted…
Methods for measuring the absolute center-of-mass energy using dileptons from e$^{+}$e$^{-}$ collision events are further developed with an emphasis on accelerator, detector, and physics limitations. We discuss two main estimators, the…
The noncommutative QED (NCQED) has a non-Abelian nature due to the presence of 3- and 4-photon vertices in the lagrangian. Thus, NCQED predicts a new physics contribution to the $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ scattering already at…
The design study of the Future Circular Colliders (FCC) in a 100-km ring in the Geneva area has started at CERN at the beginning of 2014, as an option for post-LHC particle accelerators. The study has an emphasis on proton-proton and…
We examine the accuracy of an intrinsically one-dimensional quantum electrodynamics to predict accurately the forces and charges of a three-dimensional system that has a high degree of symmetry and therefore depends effectively only on a…
