Muon Collider Physics Benchmark Workshop

US/Eastern
Description

In comparison with electron colliders and hadron colliders, the muon colliders incorporate both advantages of the clean environment of lepton colliders and the high-energy reaches of muon beams. As a consequence, a high-energy muon collider suits as an ideal machine to advance our understanding of the fundamental particles and interactions in high-energy physics. A few techniques have been demonstrated that a multi-TeV or 10 TeV muon collider is feasible in the future. It is thus the time to lay the physics cases to guide the machine and detector designs, and to identify the unique physics benchmarks to fully exploit its capability.

The physics topics include Standard Model bread and butter physics, WIMP dark matter, precision Higgs physics, new physics models, neutrino physics synergy, etc.
