We discuss the production of hadrons in $e^+e^-$ collisions at $\sqrt s=91$ GeV. We address the question wether the particle yields measured in the final states are consistent with the statistical model predictions. In the model formulation…
We review some of the reactions which can be studied in the $e^-e^-$ mode of a linear collider and may reveal aspects of physics beyond the realm of the standard model. The complementarity to $e^+e^-$ scattering is stressed.
Muon colliders are expected to naturally have a small spread in beam energy making them an ideal place to study the excitation curve. We present the parameter determinations that are possible from measuring the total cross section near…
The experimental status of stable bound states made out of heavy quarks is reviewed. The need for a way to deal with the non-perturbative transitions involved calls for precision measurements on one hand, and for discovery of as yet…
A reexamination of hadronic comover scattering indicates that this mechanism cannot explain the observed $\psi$ suppression in Pb+Pb interactions. The possibility of quark-gluon plasma formation is therefore considered.
The three lowest-lying $\Upsilon$ states, i.e. $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, and $\Upsilon(3S)$, composed of $b\bar b$ pairs and below the $B\bar B$ threshold, provide a good platform for the researches of hadronic physics and physics…
We study the possibility of discovering resonances in $\mu^+e^- \to \mu^- e^+$ and $e^-e^- \to \mu^- \mu^-$ collisions. We begin with the closely related problem of muonium--antimuonium transitions, where the experimental limit has just…
Associated selectron-neutralino production in the process $e^-\gamma\to\tilde e^-\tilde\chi^0$ provides a striking supersymmetric signal: events with a single high $p_\perp$ electron and otherwise only invisible particles. For $e^-\gamma$…
In this letter we analyze the associated production of a vector meson with the bound - free $e^+e^-$ process in ultraperipheral $PbPb$ collisions through the double scattering mechanism for the energy of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).…
Stable baryonic Q-balls, which appear in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, could form at the end of cosmological inflation from fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate. They can be dark matter. The existing bounds rely…
Current mass limits allow the possibility that squarks may be produced in large numbers at the next generation of linear $e^+e^-$ colliders. In this paper we investigate the prospects for precision studies of squark masses at such…

We describe the physics potential of $e^+e^-$ linear colliders in this report. These machines are planned to operate in the first phase at a center-of --mass energy of 500 GeV, before being scaled up to about 1 TeV. In the second phase of…
I summarize the prospects for discovering and studying the properties of Higgs particles at future high-energy and high-luminosity $e^+e^-$ linear colliders. I will focus on the Higgs particle of the Standard Model and the Higgs bosons…
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…
