Searching for New Physics with a 10 TeV Wakefield Collider.
A 10 TeV wakefield collider could offer significant opportunities for both Standard Model measurements and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, we summarize recent technological advances that have motivated high-energy wakefield collider studies and present the physics case for such a machine. In particular, we highlight its promise for Higgs physics, including measurements of the Higgs trilinear self-coupling and searches for additional Higgs bosons in two-Higgs-doublet models. We also discuss the vital role of the physics case in shaping near-term wakefield accelerator design and technology development.
