AbstractThe Circular Electron Positron Collider and the International Linear Collider are two electron-positron Higgs factories. They are designed to operate at a center-of-mass energy of 240 and 250 GeV and accumulate 5.6 and 2 $$ab^{-1}$$ab-1 of integrated luminosity. This paper estimates their performance on the $$H \rightarrow \tau ^{+}\tau ^{-}$$H→τ+τ- benchmark measurement. Using the full simulation analysis, the CEPC is expected to measure the signal strength to a relative accuracy of 0.8%. Extrapolating to the ILC setup, we conclude the ILC can reach a relative accuracy of 1.1% or 1.2%, corresponding to two benchmark beam polarization setups. The physics requirement on the mass resolution of the Higgs boson with hadronic decay final states is also discussed, showing that the CEPC baseline design and reconstruction fulfill the accuracy requirement of the $$H\rightarrow \tau ^{+}\tau ^{-}$$H→τ+τ- signal strength.

The Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) as a Higgs factory was proposed in September 2013. The preliminary conceptual design report was completed in 2015.1 The CEPC detector design was using International Linear Collider Detector — ILD2 as an initial baseline. The CEPC calorimeters, including the high granularity electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) and the hadron calorimeter (HCAL), are designed for precise energy measurements of electrons, photons, taus and hadronic jets. The basic resolution requirements for the ECAL and HCAL are about 16%[Formula: see text][Formula: see text] (GeV) and 50%[Formula: see text][Formula: see text] (GeV), respectively. To fully exploit the physics potential of the Higgs, [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and related Standard Model processes, the jet energy resolution is required to reach 3%–4%, or 30%/[Formula: see text] (GeV) at energies below about 100 GeV. To achieve the required performance, a Particle Flow Algorithm (PFA) — oriented calorimetry system is being considered as the baseline design. The CEPC ECAL detector options include silicon–tungsten or scintillator–tungsten structures with analog readout, while the HCAL detector options have scintillator or gaseous detector as the active sensor and iron as the absorber. Some latest R&D studies about ECAL and HCAL within the CEPC working group is also presented.

AbstractThe deviation between the prediction based on the standard model and the measurement of the muon $$g{-}2$$ g - 2 is currently at $$3{-}4 \sigma $$ 3 - 4 σ . If this discrepancy is attributable to new physics, it is expected that the new contributions to the tau $$g{-}2$$ g - 2 even larger than those of muon due to its large mass. However, it is much more difficult to directly measure the tau $$g{-}2$$ g - 2 because of its short lifetime. In this report, we consider the effect of the tau $$g{-}2$$ g - 2 at $$e^-e^+$$ e - e + colliders using a model independent approach. Using the tau pair production channel at the Large Electron Position Collider (LEP), we have determined the allowed range for the new physics contribution of the tau $$g{-}2$$ g - 2 assuming a q-square-dependence ansatz for the magnetic form factor. We also investigated the prospect at future $$e^+e^-$$ e + e - colliders, such as International Linear Collider, the Compact Linear Collider, the Future Circular $$e^+e^-$$ e + e - Collider, and Circular Electron Positron Collider, and determined the expected allowed range for the new physics contribution to the tau anomalous magnetic moment. The best limits are about $$4{-}5$$ 4 - 5 times more severe than the LEP one due to the beam polarization and the high luminosities at future colliders.

We have investigated the anomalous quartic couplings defined by the dimension-8 operators in semileptonic decay channel of thee+e-→νeW-W+ν-eprocess for unpolarized and polarized electron (positron) beam at the Compact Linear Collider. We give the 95% confidence level bounds on the anomalousfS0/Λ4,fS1/Λ4, andfT0/Λ4couplings for various values of the integrated luminosities and center-of-mass energies. The best sensitivities obtained on anomalousfS0/Λ4,fS1/Λ4, andfT0/Λ4couplings through the processe+e-→νeW-W+ν-ewith beam polarization ats=3 TeV and an integrated luminosity ofLint=2000 fb-1are[-4.05;3.67]×10-12 GeV-4,[-3.08;2.12]×10-12 GeV-4, and[-1.98;0.64]×10-13 GeV-4, which show improvement over the current bounds.

In this paper, we give preliminary designs of beam polarization manipulations by inserting three different types of insertions in the Circular Electron–Positron Collider (CEPC) at center-of-mass energies of 91 GeV (Z-pole). With the wigglers in the collider ring, we can obtain 5% transverse polarization in 1.1 h for the precise energy measurement. To overcome depolarization effects as the beam energy rises from 10 GeV to 45.5 GeV in the booster ring, Siberian snakes based on helical magnets are adopted. Finally, for longitudinally polarized beam collisions, a schematic design of spin rotators based on solenoids in the collider ring is studied.

In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), the bottom Yukawa coupling of the Higgs boson can considerably deviate from its Standard Model prediction due to nondecoupling effects. We point out that the ratio of the Higgs boson decay branching fraction to a bottom quark pair and that to a W-boson pair from the same production channel is particularly sensitive to large additional MSSM Higgs boson mass regions at future electron–positron colliders. Based on this precision measurement, we explicitly show the indirect discovery reach of the additional Higgs bosons according to planned programs of the International Linear Collider.

AbstractWe calculate the next-to-leading order (NLO) quantum chromodynamics (QCD) corrections to the exclusive processes $$\gamma +\gamma \rightarrow {\mathcal {Q}}+{\mathcal {Q}}$$ γ + γ → Q + Q , with $${\mathcal {Q}}=J/\psi ,\ \eta _c,\ \Upsilon $$ Q = J / ψ , η c , Υ , or $$\eta _b$$ η b , in the framework of non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization formalism. The cross sections at the SuperKEKB electron–positron collider, as well as at the future colliders, like the circular electron positron collider (CEPC) and the international linear collider (ILC), are evaluated. Numerical result indicates that the processes for $$J/\psi $$ J / ψ -pair production and $$\eta _c$$ η c -pair production are hopefully observable at the Belle II detector within the next decade.

The physics potential of the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) can be significantly strengthened by two detectors with complementary designs. A promising detector approach based on the Silicon Detector (SiD) designed for the International Linear Collider (ILC) is presented. Several simplifications of this detector for the lower energies expected at the CEPC are proposed. A number of cost optimizations of this detector are illustrated using full detector simulations. We show that the proposed changes will enable one to reach the physics goals at the CEPC.

An electron/positron linear collider with a center-of-mass energy between 0.5 and 1 TeV would be an important complement to the physics program of the LHC in the next decade. The Next Linear Collider (NLC) is being designed by a US collaboration (FNAL, LBNL, LLNL, and SLAC) which is working closely with the Japanese collaboration that is designing the Japanese Linear Collider (JLC). This paper will discuss the technical difficulties encountered as well as the changes that have been made to the NLC design over the last year. These changes include improvements to the X-band rf system as well as modifications to the beam delivery system. The net effect has been to reduce the length of the collider from about 32 km to 25 km and to reduce the number of klystrons and modulators by a factor of two. Together these lead to significant cost savings.

We present the first measurement of the left-right cross-section asymmetry (A LR ) in Z-boson production observed at the SLAC Linear Collider. In 1992 the SLD detector recorded 10 224 Z events produced by the collision of longitudinally polarized electrons with an unpolarized positron beam at a center-of-mass energy of 91.55 GeV. The average electron beam polarization during the run was (22.4 ± 0.6)%. We measure A LR to be 0.100 ± 0.0440 (stat.) ±0.004 (syst.) , which determines the effective weak mixing angle to be [Formula: see text].
