Recent discovery of a particle that looks like a Higgs boson provides a very clear target for the near-future linear collider. I will review the capabilities of a low-energy linear collider in elucidating the nature of this new particle. I will emphasize that a precision study may reveal the next energy scale of physics to be targeted by a later big machine.

At an e+ e- linear collider, the 4-momentum and the spin state of the initial state can be well controlled and the environment of interactions are clean. Taking advantage of these experimental conditions, a linear collider provides unique physics opportunities for the detailed studies of the Higgs particle. In order to fully exploit the physics potential, the detectors need to have resolutions...
