A linear e+e- collider (LC) could go into operation in the next decade. The LHC is currently exploring the Higgs sector of the SM, various supersymmetric extensions and other models. The LC is necessary to complete the profile of a Higgs…
The physics potential is briefly summarized for an e+e- linear collider operating at center-of-mass energies up to \sqrt{s} = 1 TeV and delivering integrated luminosities up to \int L = 0.5 ab^(-1) in one to two years. This machine will…
Physics issues at the upcoming and planned colliders are discussed. We critically review the the different arguments that suggest that New Physics is bound to materialise at the TeV scale and why we should keep an open minded approach. The…
This working group report focuses on the physics potential of $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders beyond what can be accomplished at linear $e^+e^-$ colliders and the LHC. Particularly interesting possibilities include (i)~$s$-channel resonance…
We present a brief summary of the International Linear Collider as documented in the 2013 Technical Design Report. The Technical Design Report has detailed descriptions of the accelerator baseline design for a 500 GeV e+e- linear collider,…
This Resource Book reviews the physics opportunities of a next-generation e+e- linear collider and discusses options for the experimental program. Part 3 reviews the possible experiments on that can be done at a linear collider on strongly…
Measurements of triple gauge boson couplings and strong electroweak symmetry breaking effects at future e+e- linear colliders are reviewed. The results expected from a future e+e- linear collider are compared with LHC expectations.
We give a brief account of some physics topics which could be addressed at a collider consisting of the HERA proton ring and the future e+e- Linear Collider. A few experimental aspects are also discussed.
I start with a brief introduction to the elementary particles and their interactions, Higgs mechanism and supersymmetry. The major physics objectives of the Tevatron and LHC colliders are identified. The status and prospects of the top…

A comprehensive review of physics at an e+e- Linear Collider in the energy range of sqrt{s}=92 GeV--3 TeV is presented in view of recent and expected LHC results, experiments from low energy as well as astroparticle physics.The report…
In this talk, I summarize the activities in the $e^- e^-$ session. The consensus is that if the next generation $e^+ e^-$ linear collider wants to include an $e^- e^-$ option, the planning has to include it as early as possible. By doing so…
Physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the International e+e- Linear Collider (ILC) will be complementary in many respects, as has been demonstrated at previous generations of hadron and lepton colliders. This report addresses the…
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…

We discuss the connection between the understanding of TeV scale physics to be found at the LHC and a high energy e+e- linear collider, using Higgs physics, low energy supersymmetry, and the top quark sector as examples.
The broad connections between cosmology and collider physics, particularly precision measurements at the high-energy frontier, are discussed. These proceedings summarize a colloquium delivered to a general audience of experimental and…
