Description
This talk will give an overview of the prospects for future e+e- colliders to make incisive measurements of the W mass with techniques that are highly complementary to the hadron collider approach. Examples will be drawn from ILC and other accelerator designs such as FCC-ee and ReLiC and will cover threshold lineshape based measurements and continuum reconstruction of the W mass as was already established at LEP2.
The bottom line is that the next generation of colliders designed for exploring the Higgs will also be very well equipped for advancing our knowledge of the W mass to MeV level precision either concurrently with ZH production operation or with operation near WW threshold.
