Description
In this talk, I will give a broad overview of the physics case for the FCC. I will review the puzzles of the Standard Model and opportunities to go beyond it, and discuss how the FCC plans fit in this context. FCC-ee can provide a major boost to the precision study of the Standard Model and electroweak symmetry breaking, while also offering opportunities to search for new physics. FCC-hh will provide a new energy frontier with potential direct access to new physics, as well as opportunities for further precision measurements, such as the Higgs self-coupling. The combination of the two is a logical path forward that can define the agenda of particle physics well into the 21st century.
