Barbara Warmbein | 26 November 2021Hitoshi Murayama likes crazy ideas. Especially when they are exactly the right amount of crazy to just possibly be turned into a reality. He asked the wider community to present exactly those kinds of ideas for the recent ILCX meeting – here’s an overview of what was discussed.
Barbara Warmbein | 27 July 2021The ILD detector is one of two detector proposals at the ILC, that take turns in taking collision data and look for exciting insights through precision studies of the Higgs, heavy flavor physics and searches for new physics. ILD has just undergone a thorough five-year concept revisit and development and is now even better and more ready for the next step than before, its international team of designers says.
Jenny List, Jan Strube and Tomohiko Tanabe | 26 February 2021The high-luminosity, polarised beams of the proposed International Linear Collider and the triggerless operation of its detectors offer rich physics opportunities beyond its Higgs-factory programme.
Sachio Komamiya | 24 December 2020Sachio Komamiya, former chair of Linear Collider Board and professor at Waseda University in Japan, pays tribute to his teacher and mentor Masatoshi Koshiba, Nobel laureate and strong advocate of the ILC, who died in November at the age of 94.
Sakue Yamada | 24 December 2020Sakue Yamada, former Research Director at Global Design Effort, looks back on his days with the late Masatoshi Koshiba, who started the e+e- collider physics effort in Japan.
Geoffrey Taylor | 25 September 2020Geoffrey Taylor, the current chair of the International Committee for Future Accelerators ICFA, explains why ICFA has set up the International Development Team (IDT) and what it will do.

1 November 2019Scientists gathering in Sendai, Japan, for a scientific conference about a possible future particle physics project in Japan reconfirm the scientific importance of the ILC and express their commitment to make the ILC a success.
Rickard Ström | 14 March 2019The annual workshop of the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) attracted more than 200 participants to CERN between 21 and 25 January. The annual workshop summarised the work done in 2018, including the completion of a project implementation plan. "The CLIC project offers a cost-effective and innovative technology and is ready to proceed towards construction with a Technical Design Report. Following the technology-driven timeline CLIC would realise electron-positron collisions at 380 GeV as soon as 2035," Steinar Stapnes, CLIC project leader, said. Read the full report.
