We explore the capabilities of a future proton collider to probe the nature of the electro-weak phase transition, following the hypothetical discovery of a new scalar particle. We focus on the real singlet scalar field extension of the…
After summarising very briefly the key features of different model predictions for sparticle masses and their relation with the supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking scales and parameters, I discuss the capabilities of an $e^+ e^-$ Linear Collider…
The study of strong symmetry breaking at an e+e linear collider with sqrt(s)=0.5-1.5 TeV is reviewed. It is shown that processes such as e+e- --> nu nubar W+ W-, e+e- --> nu nubar t tbar, and and e+e- --> W+ W- can be used to measure chiral…
Gravity can become strong at the TeV scale in the theory of extra dimensions. An effective Lagrangian can be used to describe the gravitational interactions below a cut-off scale. In this work, we study the associated production of the…
I present a summary of the experience with CCD-based vertex detectors at the SLD experiment at SLAC, and discuss their advantages for use at a future high-energy e+e- collider. The extensive R+D programme to improve further the vertexing…
The International Linear Collider has a rich physics programme, whatever lies beyond the standard model. Accurate measurement of the top quark mass is needed to constrain the model or its extensions. If there is a light Higgs boson the LHC…
We sketch some of our recent studies on probing strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism at high energy colliders such as the CERN LHC and the future e(+)e(-) linear collider. The study includes both model-dependent and…
Although the LHC experiments have searched for and excluded many proposed new particles up to masses close to 1 TeV, there are many scenarios that are difficult to address at a hadron collider. This talk will review a number of these…
It is very likely that in 3-4 years the construction of one or two linear colliders with c.m.s energy up to 0.5--1.5 TeV will be started. Besides e^+e^- collisions, linear colliders give a unique possibility to study gamma-gamma and…
We propose using current and future large-volume neutrino telescopes as ``Large Neutrino Colliders" (L$\nu$Cs) to explore TeV-scale physics beyond the Standard Model. Cosmic neutrinos with energies above 100 PeV colliding with nucleons in…
As next generation e+e- linear collider the superconducting accelerator project TESLA has been proposed. In this note the physics potential goals of this project, which is highly complementary to LHC, are described.
The LHC brings nuclear collisions to the TeV scale for the first time and the first data show the qualitative differences of this new regime. The corresponding phase-space available encompasses completely uncharted regions of QCD in which…
In this paper, we review the role of a multi-TeV $e^+e^-$ linear collider to complete the mapping of the Higgs boson profile and studying heavier bosons in extended scenarios with more than one Higgs doublet.
We in the physics community expect the LHC to uncover new physics in the next few years. The character and energy scale of the new physics remain unclear, but it is likely that data from the LHC will need to be complemented by information…
The problems of the origin of mass and of electro-weak symmetry breaking are central to the programme of research in particle physics, at present and in the coming decades. This paper reviews the potential of high energy, high luminosity…
We report on Discussion Question 4, in Sub-group 1 (`TeV-class') of the Snowmass Working Group E3: `Experimental Approaches: Linear Colliders', which addresses the energy expandability of a linear collider. We first synthesize discussions…
International Linear Collider (ILC) is an electron-positron collider with the initial center-of-mass energy of 500 GeV which is upgradable to about 1 TeV later on. Its goal is to study the physics at TeV scale with unprecedented high…
