As the LEP collider at CERN has increased its maximum center-of-mass energy to 209 GeV, a total integrated luminosity of 99.8 pb -1 has been collected in the ALEPH detector. The ALEPH searches for Higgs bosons have been updated, But no firm evidence for Higgs production has been observed. Standard Model Higgs boson production is excluded at 95% confidence level for Higgs masses less than 111.1 GeV/c 2, and the combined LEP results exclude Higgs masses below 113.3 GeV/c 2. The recently-granted LEP extension will allow the a currently 2σ fluctuation from background expectation at m H = 115 GeV/c 2 to become more significant if it is truly due to Higgs production.

We discuss the physics opportunities and challenges presented by high energy lepton colliders in the range of center-of-mass energy between few and several tens of TeV. The focus is on the progress attainable on the study of weak and Higgs interactions in connection with new physics scenarios motivated by the shortcomings of the Standard Model.

Experiments will soon start taking data at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with high expectations for discovery of new physics phenomena. Indeed, the LHC's unprecedented center-of-mass energy will allow the experiments to probe an energy regime where the standard model is known to break down. Here, the experiments' capability to observe new resonances in various channels is reviewed.
