Recently, a new class of realistic models for electroweak symmetry breaking have been constructed, without supersymmetry. These theories have naturally light Higgs bosons and perturbative new physics at the TeV scale. We describe these…
In this review, we discuss methods of parsing direct and indirect information from collider experiments regarding the Higgs boson and describe simple ways in which experimental likelihoods can be consistently reconstructed and interfaced…
Recent progress in calculating O(alpha) electroweak corrections to W+W- pair production in photon-photon collisions is reviewed. The potential of the Photon Linear Collider to study anomalous W couplings is discussed.
We explore the capability of a 500 or 1000 GeV $e^+e^-$ linear collider to measure anomalous quartic gauge boson couplings. In the framework of a non-linear effective Lagrangian with a custodial $SU)2)$ symmetry, there are only two…
We investigate the potential for detecting and studying Higgs bosons in $\gamma\gamma$ and $e\gamma$ collisions at future linear colliders with energies below a TeV. Our study incorporates realistic $\gamma\gamma$ spectra based on available…
We discuss the possible signatures in the electroweak symmetry breaking sector by new strong dynamics at future hadron colliders such as the Tevatron upgrade, the LHC and VLHC, and $e^+e^-$ linear colliders. Examples include a heavy…
The Large Hadron Collider, a 7 + 7 TeV proton-proton collider under construction at CERN (the European Laboratory for Particle Physics in Geneva), will take experiments squarely into a new energy domain where mysteries of the electroweak…
The planned next generation of linear colliders (NLCs) will be able to probe the infrared structure of Standard Model electroweak interactions, that determines the behavior of electroweak radiative corrections at TeV scale energies. I…
The main attractions of studying the bosonic sector of the electroweak standard model and its extensions at a future high energy photon collider are reviewed. A presentation of the laser scheme for obtaining such a collider is given where…
We study the processes $W_L W_L \to t \bar t$ and $W_L Z_L \to t\bar b (\bar t b)$ at future lepton colliders as probes of the couplings of the top quark to resonances at the TeV scale. We consider the cases in which the dominant low energy…
We summarize some of the main physics questions that will serve to define the linear e+e- collider program, and comment on issues that confront the world community in making such a collider a reality.
We analyze new physics contributions to $e^+e^-\to W^+W^-$ at the TeV energy scale, employing an effective field theory framework. A complete basis of next-to-leading order operators in the standard model effective Lagrangian is used, both…
We analyze the influence of anomalous gauge couplings in the reaction $e^- \: e^- \longrightarrow e^- \: W^- \: \nu_e$ at a 500 GeV linear collider. The limits imposed by this process on deviations from the standard model of electro-weak…
A high energy $e^+e^-$ linear collider (NLC) is an excellent tool for studying the properties of the top quark. In this talk I review some of the theory of top quark production and decay in $e^+e^-$ collisions both at threshold and in the…
A feasibility study of the measurement of the top-Higgs Yukawa coupling at a future linear e+e- collider operating at sqrt(s)=800 GeV is presented. As compared to previous existing studies, much effort has been put in a ``realistic…
A study of W+W- events accompanied by hard photon radiation produced in e+e- collisions at LEP is presented. Events consistent with two on-shell W-bosons and an isolated photon are selected from 183pb^-1 of data recorded at root{s}=189GeV.…
We present the second in a series of studies into the forward tracking system for a future linear $ e^+ e^- $ collider with a center-of-mass energy in the range from 250 GeV to 3 TeV. In this note a number of specific challenges are…
It has recently been shown that the studies of strongly-interacting electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) at photon colliders, via photon splitting into $W$ pair followed by longitudinal $W$-boson scattering, could be possible. Here we…
Top quark production in the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow t\bar{t}$ at a future linear electron positron collider with polarized beams is a powerful tool to determine the scale of new physics. Studies at the $\ttbar$ threshold will allow for…
We report on Discussion Question 4, in Sub-group 1 (`TeV-class') of the Snowmass Working Group E3: `Experimental Approaches: Linear Colliders', which addresses the energy expandability of a linear collider. We first synthesize discussions…
