The ECFA Higgs, electroweak, and top Factory Study ran between 2021 and 2025 as a broad effort across the experimental and theoretical particle physics communities, bringing togeth…
The Linear Collider Facility (LCF) at CERN
H. Abramowicz, E. Adli, F. Alharthi +406
In this paper we outline a proposal for a Linear Collider Facility as the next flagship project for CERN. It offers the opportunity for a timely, cost-effective and staged construc…
Higgs Physics at the HL-LHC and HE-LHC
M. Cepeda, S. Gori, P. Ilten +374
The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments, was a success achieved with only a percent of the entire dataset foreseen for the LHC. It opened a lands…
Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Trigger and Physics
The ATLAS Collaboration, G. Aad, E. Abat +2604
A detailed study is presented of the expected performance of the ATLAS detector. The reconstruction of tracks, leptons, photons, missing energy and jets is investigated, together w…
Searches for New Physics: Les Houches Recommendations for the Presentation of LHC Results
S. Kraml, B. C. Allanach, M. Mangano +30
We present a set of recommendations for the presentation of LHC results on searches for new physics, which are aimed at providing a more efficient flow of scientific information be…
Economical and ecological impact of sector coupling applied to computing clusters
P. Bechtle, O. Freyermuth, M. Geffers +7
The rising share of abundant renewable energy inevitably increases volatility in the electricity production. The concept of sector coupling means that the volatility of electricity…
CP Studies and Non-Standard Higgs Physics
S. Kraml, E. Accomando, A. G. Akeroyd +163
There are many possibilities for new physics beyond the Standard Model that feature non-standard Higgs sectors. These may introduce new sources of CP violation, and there may be mi…
Constraining SUSY models with Fittino using measurements before, with and beyond the LHC
P. Bechtle, K. Desch, M. Uhlenbrock +1
We investigate the constraints on Supersymmetry arising from available precision measurements using a global fit approach. When interpreted within minimal supergravity (mSUGRA), th…
MSSM Interpretations of the LHC Discovery: Light or Heavy Higgs?
P. Bechtle, S. Heinemeyer, O. Stål +3
A Higgs-like particle with a mass of about 126 GeV has been discovered at the LHC. Within the experimental uncertainties, the measured properties of this new state are compatible w…
HL-LHC and ILC sensitivities in the hunt for heavy Higgs bosons
H. Bahl, P. Bechtle, S. Heinemeyer +3
The prediction of additional Higgs bosons is one of the key features of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) that gives rise to an extended Higgs sector. We assess the sensitivit…
The Physics of the B Factories

This work is on the Physics of the B Factories. Part A of this book contains a brief description of the SLAC and KEK B Factories as well as their detectors, BaBar and Belle, and da…
Physics Interplay of the LHC and the ILC
LC Study Group, G. Weiglein, T. Barklow +120
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…

Present and possible future implications for mSUGRA of the non-discovery of SUSY at the LHC
P. Bechtle, K. Desch, H. Dreiner +5
Both ATLAS and CMS have published results of SUSY searches putting limits on SUSY parameters and masses. A non-discovery of SUSY in the next two years would push these limits furth…
