A linear e+e- collider provides excellent possibilities for precision measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson. At energies close to the Z-Higgs threshold, the Higgs boson can be studied in recoil against a Z boson, to obtain not…
In the Standard Model (SM) the couplings of the Higgs boson to SM particles and itself (self-couplings) are uniquely specified once the masses of the particles in question as well as the Higgs boson mass are given. Precision measurements of…

The present status of precision electroweak data is reviewed. These data include measurements of e+e- -> f+fbar, taken at the Z resonance at LEP, which are used to determine the mass and width of the Z boson. In addition, measurements have…
We revisit the impact of top partial compositeness on electroweak precision observables in the misaligned vacuum basis. We identify a new source for $S$ in the singlet mixing case, and for $S$-$T$ in the bi-doublet mixing, stemming from…
In the event that the Higgs mass is large or that the electroweak interactions are strongly interacting at high energy, top quark couplings to longitudinal components of the weak gauge bosons could offer important clues to the underlying…
