In this note, I will review the opportunities offered by the hint of a new resonance observed at LHC for future e+e- TeV linear collider (LC) projects. This discussion is mainly influenced by two specific scenarios of physics which assume either a (pseudo-)scalar or a tensor resonance, but these estimates can be used in most scenarios. I envisage either a photon collider, which has a guaranteed signal with the LHC observation, or a standard e+e- collider, more straightforward to implement. After a detailed study of the heavy graviton scenario, I conclude that at a TeV LC, high accuracy measurements, including rare modes, allow to unambiguously establish the origin of this resonance. Also envisaged in some detail is a radion scenario which illustrates the production of a scalar. The role of an LC for precision measurements on Higgs and top couplings is recalled in the context of the Randall Sundrum model.

Motivated by the ATLAS and CMS announcements of the excesses of di-photon events, we discuss the production and decay processes of di-photon resonance at future $e^+e^-$ colliders. We assume that the excess of the di-photon events at the LHC is explained by a scalar resonance decaying into a pair of photons. In such a case, the scalar interacts with standard model gauge bosons and, consequently, the production of such a scalar is possible at the $e^+e^-$ colliders. We study the production of the scalar resonance via the associated production with photon or $Z$, as well as via the vector-boson fusion, and calculate the cross sections of these processes. We also study the backgrounds, and discuss the detectability of the signals of scalar production with various decay processes of the scalar resonance. We also consider the case where the scalar resonance has an invisible decay mode, and study how the invisible decay can be observed at the $e^+e^-$ colliders.
A short review of the history and a slide-show of QCD tests in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is given. The world summary of measurements of $alpha_s$ is updated.
The current status of tests of the theory of strong interactions, Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD), with data from hadron production in e^+e^- annihilation experiments is reviewed. The LEP experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL have published many analyses with data recorded on the Z^0 resonance at sqrt(s)=91.2 GeV and above up to sqrt(s)>200 GeV. There are also results from SLD at sqrt(s)=91.2 GeV and from reanalysis of data recorded by the JADE experiment at 14<sqrt(s)<44 GeV. The results of studies of jet and event shape observables, of particle production and of quark gluon jet differences are compared with predictions by perturbative QCD calculations. Determinations of the strong coupling constant alpha_S(M_Z) from jet and event shape observables, scaling violation and fragmentation functions, inclusive observables from Z^0 decays, hadronic tau decays and hadron production in low energy e^+e^- annihilation are discussed. Updates of the measurements are performed where new data or improved calculations have become available. Finally, investigations of the gauge structure of QCD are summarised.
For the search for additional Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) as well as for future precision analyses in the Higgs sector a precise knowledge of their production properties is mandatory. We review the evaluation of the cross sections for the neutral Higgs boson production in association with a photon at future $e^+e^-$ colliders in the MSSM with complex parameters (cMSSM). The evaluation is based on a full one-loop calculation of the production mechanism $e^+e^- to h_i gamma$ ($i = 1,2,3$). The dependence of the lightest Higgs-boson production cross sections on the relevant cMSSM parameters is analyzed numerically. We find relatively small numerical depedences of the production cross sections on the underlying parameters.
This paper intends to collect available data on searches for scalar resonances at LHC. It is suggested that, in the absence of SUSY, the most compelling picture is the composite framework, with the idea that the lightest particles are composite scalars of the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone type, emerging from a broken symmetry at a higher scale, the h(125) boson being one of them. Searches in two-photons, Z-photon, ZZ into 4 leptons, top, h and W pairs are reviewed. A recent search based on lepton tagging from a spectator W/Z is also discussed. Aside from the already well-known scalar observed by CMS and LEP2 at 96 GeV, I discuss the evidence and the interpretation for a possible resonance observed in ZZ around 700 GeV by CMS and ATLAS and some evidence for a CP-odd scalar at ~400 GeV. Future searches at HL-LHC and at $e^+e^-$ colliders are briefly sketched.
