Description
The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a mature option for a future
electron-positron collider operating at centre-of-mass energies of up
to 3 TeV. CLIC would be built and operated in a staged approach with
three centre-of-mass energy stages currently assumed to be 380 GeV,
1.5 TeV, and 3 TeV. A selection of results from recent studies will be
presented showing that CLIC has excellent sensitivity to many BSM
physics scenarios. New particles can be discovered in a
model-independent way almost up to the kinematic limit. Compared with
hadron colliders, the low background conditions at CLIC provide
extended discovery potential, in particular for the production through
electroweak and/or Higgs boson interactions. This includes scenarios
with extended scalar sectors, also motivated by dark matter, which can
be searched for using associated production processes or cascade
decays involving electroweak gauge bosons.
