We report the first measurement of the exclusive cross sections $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}$, $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}^*$, and $e^+e^-\to B^*\bar{B}^*$ in the energy range from 10.63 GeV to 11.02 GeV. The $B$ mesons are fully reconstructed in a large…

A short overview about the potential of polarized beams at future colliders is given. In particular the baseline design for polarized beams at the ILC is presented and the physics case for polarized $e^-$ and $e^+$ is discussed. In order to…
The pursuit of discovery in particle physics has always required study at the highest possible energies. Multi-TeV muon colliders, which have important advantages, offer unprecedented potential for investigating new physics beyond the…

Linear collider designs foresee some bends of about 5-10 mrad. The spin precession angle of one TeV electrons on 10 mrad bend is 23.2 rad and it changes proportional to the energy. Measurement of the spin direction using Compton scattering…
The uncertainties due to limited knowledge of the multi-hadron final state on the measurements of the top mass at future linear colliders are discussed. The study is performed for E+E- -> tt-bar annihilation events at the centre-of-mass…
A high-statistics determination of the differential cross section of elastic muon-electron scattering as a function of the transferred four-momentum squared, $d \sigma_{el}(\mu e \to \mu e)/dq^2$, has been argued to provide an effective…
Over the last decade there has been significant progress in developing the concepts and technologies needed to produce, capture, accelerate and collide high intensity beams of muons. At present, a high-luminosity multi-TeV muon collider…
Extending earlier investigations, we analyze the quasi-elastic scattering of strongly interacting electroweak bosons at high-energy e+-e- colliders. The three processes e+e- -> bar-nu nu W+W-, bar-nu nu ZZ, and e-e- -> W-W- are examined at…
The MUon Scattering Experiment (MUSE) was motivated by the proton radius puzzle arising from the discrepancy between muonic hydrogen spectroscopy and electron-proton measurements. The MUSE physics goals also include testing lepton…
We study the muon pair production $ e^+ e^- \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ in the framework of the non-minimal noncommutative(NC) standard model to the second order of the NC parameter $\Theta_{\mu\nu}$. The $\mathcal{O}(\Theta^2)$ momentum dependent NC…
If new particles are discovered, it will be important to determine if they are the supersymmetric partners of standard model bosons and fermions. Supersymmetry predicts relations among the couplings and masses of these particles. We discuss…
We describe a result coming from an experiment based on an Al-Mg alloy (~ 5% Mg) suspended bar hit by an electron beam and operated above and below the termperature of transition from superconducting to normal state of the material. The…
Design of a muon collider interaction region (IR) presents a number of challenges arising from low {\beta} * < 1 cm, correspondingly large beta-function values and beam sizes at IR magnets, as well as the necessity to protect…
There are currently several proposals to build a high-luminosity electron-ion collider, to study the spin structure of matter and measure parton densities in heavy nuclei, and to search for gluon saturation and new phenomena like the…
We study $\mu^+\mu^-$ collision with production of some state $F$ (for example, $F= W^+$) and $(e\bar\nu)$ system with the effective mass, which is less than muon mass. In this case the momentum $k$, transferred from $\mu$ to $e\bar\nu$…
We present measurements of the total projectile-electron-loss cross sections in O$^-$ + N$_2$ collisions in the energy range from 2.5 to 8.5 keV. Two different techniques, beam attenuation and the growth rate, are employed. The difference…
We study electron-electron contact-interaction searches in the process e^+e^-\to e^+e^- at a future e^+e^- Linear Collider with both beams longitudinally polarized. We evaluate the model-independent constraints on the coupling constants,…
