The International Linear Collider: A Global Project
read the original abstract
The International Linear Collider (ILC) is now under consideration as the next global project in particle physics. In this report, we review of all aspects of the ILC program: the physics motivation, the accelerator design, the run plan, the proposed detectors, the experimental measurements on the Higgs boson, the top quark, the couplings of the W and Z bosons, and searches for new particles. We review the important role that polarized beams play in the ILC program. The first stage of the ILC is planned to be a Higgs factory at 250 GeV in the centre of mass. Energy upgrades can naturally be implemented based on the concept of a linear collider. We discuss in detail the ILC program of Higgs boson measurements and the expected precision in the determination of Higgs couplings. We compare the ILC capabilities to those of the HL-LHC and to those of other proposed e+e- Higgs factories. We emphasize throughout that the readiness of the accelerator and the estimates of ILC performance are based on detailed simulations backed by extensive RandD and, for the accelerator technology, operational experience.

Interpretation of LHC excesses at 95 GeV and 152 GeV in an extended Georgi-Machacek model
A minimally extended Georgi-Machacek model accommodates the LHC excesses at 95 GeV and 152 GeV while preserving the 125 GeV Higgs signal and the electroweak rho parameter near unity.

Prospects of searches for invisible $B$-meson decays at FCC-ee
With 6×10^{12} Z bosons at FCC-ee, invisible B-meson branching fractions above 7.6×10^{-9} could be excluded at 90% CL using rectangular cuts and a multiclass BDT on simulated signal and background.

Non-Standard Neutrino Interactions at Neutrino Experiments and Colliders
Collider searches are generally more constraining than neutrino measurements on simplified models of non-standard neutrino interactions, except possibly for muon-philic leptoquarks and certain heavy neutral leptons.

Search for Dark Matter in 2HDMS at LHC and future Lepton Colliders
Benchmarks in the 2HDMS model with light to heavy dark matter masses are identified under all constraints and shown to have better discovery prospects at future lepton colliders than at the HL-LHC via cut-and-count analyses.
