The calculation of the tree-level QCD processes e+e- -> qqgggg, qqqqgg and qqqqqq has recently been accomplished. We highlight here the relevance of such reactions for some of the physics at future electron-positron linear accelerators.

The construction of two electron linacs and an optical FEL system is proposed. This facility, which would serve primarily as a Higgs-boson collider factory, could be built in two stages, each with distinct physics objectives requiring…
We study the phenomenology of the charged Higgs boson at future muon colliders. We investigate both the pair production $\mu^+ \mu^- \to H^+ H^-$, the single production $\mu^+ \mu^- \to W^\pm H^\mp$, as well as the Vector Boson Fusion (VBF)…
Exploiting the fact that $W$ pair production in high-energy $\gamma \gamma$ collisions is very large, we use this process to trigger Higgs, $Z$ or photon radiation. We find that there are sizeable rising cross-sections for triple bosons…

Inclusive Higgs boson pair production through the mechanism of gauge boson fusion e^{+} e^{-} -> V* V* -> h h + X (V=W,Z) in the general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM), with h=h^0,H^0,A^0,H^{\pm}, is analyzed at order \alpha^4_{ew} in the…
We study the production of gauge boson pairs at the next generation of linear $e^+e^-$ colliders operating in the $e\gamma$ mode. The processes $e\gamma \rightarrow VV^\prime F$ ($V,V^\prime =W$, $Z$, or $\gamma$ and $F=e$ or $\nu$) can…

The idea of fermion mass generation through Yukawa couplings between Higgs bosons and fermions may be tested by their associated production at future linear colliders (LC). We study the production mechanism in the minimal supersymmeric…
We study the double Higgs boson production processes $e^+e^- \to hh f\bar{f}$ ($f\neq t$) with $h$ being the 125 GeV Higgs boson in the two-Higgs-doublet model with a softly-broken $Z_2$ symmetry. The cross section can be significantly…
We study Higgs boson production at $\mu^+ \mu^+$ colliders at high energy. Since both initial-state particles are positively charged, there is no $W$ boson fusion at the leading order, as it requires a $W^+ W^-$ pair. However, we find that…
