  13. Higgs Coupling Measurements at 1 TeV T. Barklow hep-ph/0312268 CLIC Studies Demonstrated that Higgs Production through WW fusion at Ecm=3 TeV Could Probe Rare Higgs Decays. What about WW fusion at a 1 TeV LC? Results presented for No results for since detailed charm-tagging beyond scope and Higgs mass resolution for severely degraded by neutrinos.

  23. Summary of Recent Progress • Beam related systematic errors have been evaluated for LC Higgs measurements, providing improved estimates of experimental precision and guidance for detector design. • Higgs physics studies at Ecm=1 TeV lead to improved BR and self-coupling precision, even if MH < 200 GeV. • Many examples of LHC/LC complementarity found in Higgs & SUSY physics. The LC’s few hundred MeV Higgs mass measurement and few percent BR measurements are repeatedly utilized in these studies.
