Precise measurements of electroweak processes at the International Linear Collider (ILC) will provide unique opportunities to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model. Fermion pair production events are sensitive to new interactions involving a new heavy gauge boson or an electroweak interacting massive particle (EWIMP).We studied the mass reach of new particles at the ILC with $sqrt{s}=250$ GeV by using $e^+ e^-to e^+ e^-$and $e^+ e^-to mu^+ mu^-$ events. We show that a mass reach for BSM particles can be determined with 90% confidence level using a toy Monte Carlo technique.

Precise measurements of electroweak processes at the International Linear Collider (ILC) will provide unique opportunities to explore new physics beyond the Standard Model. Fermion pair productions are sensitive to a new contact interaction or a new heavy gauge boson by comparing cross section and angular distribution with expectations of the new physics models. In this proceedings we report a simulation study of fermion pair productions at a center-of-mass energy of 250 GeV, with a focus on lepton pairs, to demonstrate the potential of the first phase of the ILC.
We consider a gauged U(1)$_{B-L}$ (Baryon-minus-Lepton number) extension of the Standard Model (SM), which is anomaly-free in the presence of three Right-Handed Neutrinos (RHNs). Associated with the U(1)$_{B-L}$ symmetry breaking the RHNs acquire their Majorana masses and then play the crucial role to generate the neutrino mass matrix by the seesaw mechanism. Towards the experimental confirmation of the seesaw mechanism, we investigate a RHN pair production through the U(1)$_{B-L}$ gauge boson ($Z^prime$) at the 250 GeV International Linear Collider (ILC). The $Z^prime$ gauge boson has been searched at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Run-2 and its production cross section is already severely constrained. The constraint will become more stringent by the future experiments with the High-Luminosity upgrade of the LHC (HL-LHC). We find a possibility that even after a null $Z^prime$ boson search result at the HL-LHC, the 250 GeV ILC can search for the RHN pair production through the final state with same-sign dileptons plus jets, which is a `smoking-gun signature from the Majorana nature of RHNs. In addition, some of RHNs are long-lived and leave a clean signature with a displaced vertex. Therefore, the 250 GeV ILC can operate as not only a Higgs Factory but also a RHN discovery machine to explore the origin of the Majorana neutrino mass generation, namely the seesaw mechanism.
We evaluate the measurement accuracy of the branching ratio of $h to tau ^+ tau ^-$ at $sqrt{s} = 250$ GeV and 500 GeV at the ILC with the ILD detector simulation. For the $sqrt{s} = 250$ GeV, we assume the Higgs mass of $M_h = 120$ GeV, branching ratio of $mathrm{Br}(h to tau ^+ tau ^-) = 8.0 %$, beam polarization of $P(e^-, e^+) = (-0.8, +0.3)$, and integrated luminosity of $int L dt = 250 mathrm{fb ^{-1}}$. The Higgs-strahlung process $e^+ e^- to Zh$ with $Z to e^+ e^-$, $Z to mu ^+ mu ^-$, $Z to qbar{q}$ mode are analyzed. The measurement accuracy is calculated to be $Delta (sigma cdot mathrm{Br}) / (sigma cdot mathrm{Br}) = 3.5 %$. The scaled result to $M_h = 125$ GeV is estimated to be $4.2 %$. For the $sqrt{s} = 500$ GeV, we assume the Higgs mass of $M_h = 125$ GeV, branching ratio of $mathrm{Br}(h to tau ^+ tau ^-) = 6.32 %$, beam polarization of $P(e^-, e^+) = (-0.8, +0.3)$, and integrated luminosity of $int L dt = 500 mathrm{fb ^{-1}}$. The Higgs-strahlung process $e^+ e^- to Zh$ with $Z to qbar{q}$ mode and $WW$-fusion process $e^+ e^- to u_e bar{ u_e} h$ are analyzed. The measurement accuracy is calculated to be $Delta (sigma cdot mathrm{Br}) / (sigma cdot mathrm{Br}) = 5.7 %$ for Higgs-strahlung with $Z to qbar{q}$ and $7.5 %$ for $WW$-fusion.
This document is the final report by the Committee on the Scientific Case of the ILC Operating at 250 GeV as a Higgs Factory. This committee was commissioned by the Japan Association of High Energy Physicists. The purpose of this committee is to investigate and compare the capability to determine the energy scale of new phenomena and new principles and the capability to uncover the origin of matter-antimatter asymmetry.
We study the $h gamma Z$ coupling, which is a loop induced coupling in the Standard Model (SM), to probe new physics. In a global fit based on the SM Effective Field Theory, measurement of the SM $h gamma Z$ coupling can provide a very useful constraint, in particular for the precise determination of $hZZ$ and $hWW$ couplings. At the International Linear Collider (ILC), there are two direct ways to study the $h gamma Z$ coupling: one is to measure the branching ratio of the $h to gamma Z$ decay and the other to measure the cross section for the $e^+e^- to h gamma$ process. We have performed a full simulation study of the $e^+e^- to h gamma$ process at the 250 GeV ILC, assuming 2 ab$^{-1}$ data collected by the International Large Detector (ILD). The expected 1$sigma$ bound on the effective $hgamma Z$ coupling ($zeta_{AZ}$) combining measurements of the cross section for $e^+e^- to h gamma$ followed by $h to b bar{b}$ and the $h to gamma Z$ branching ratio is $-0.0015<zeta_{AZ}<0.0015$. The expected significance for the signal cross section in the fully hadronic $h to WW^*$ channel is 0.09 $sigma$ for beam polarizations of $P(e^-,e^+)=(-80%,+30%)$.
