Future Circular Lepton Collider FCC-ee: Overview and Status

The worldwide High Energy Physics community widely agrees that the next collider should be a Higgs factory. Acknowledging this priority, in 2021 CERN has launched the international Future Circular Collider (FCC) Feasibility Study (FS). The FCC Integrated Project foresees, in a first stage, a high-luminosity high-energy electron-positron collider, serving as Higgs, top and electroweak factory, and, in a second stage, an energy frontier hadron collider, with a centre-of-mass energy of at least 100 TeV. In this paper, we address a few key elements of the FCC-ee accelerator design, its performance reach, and underlying technologies, as requested by the Snowmass process. The Conceptual Design Report for the FCC, published in 2019, serves as our primary reference. We also summarize a few recent changes and improvements.

Deep Inelastic Lepton-Nucleus Scattering

I have worked at MINERvA for almost four years and I am involved in theanalysis of antineutrino interactions with the nuclear targets in the DIS region. Iam one of the first Ph.D. students to use higher statistics antineutrino data obtainedby the MINERvA detector. Before joining MINERvA, I have also workedat my home institution(Aligarh Muslim University, India) for almost three yearson the theoretical understanding of neutrino-nucleon and neutrino-nucleus scatteringcross sections. These studies were more confined to quasielastic scatteringprocesses. Therefore, my work is divided into two parts. First I will introduce thework which I am performing during my stay at the Fermilab and will be discussedin Chapters 2-6 and then I will introduce the theoretical work, which will bediscussed in Chapters 7-10. Finally I will conclude my findings in Chapter 11.

Impact of Two-Body Currents on Semi-Exclusive Lepton-Nucleus Reactions

We generalize the spectral-function formalism to describe two-nucleon knockout processes in exclusive kinematics. Significant improvements are introduced both in the treatment of the current operators entering the $Δ$-current contribution and in the modeling of correlations between the two struck nucleons, including a consistent treatment of isospin dependence and the explicit incorporation of angular correlations. The framework is validated through comparisons with relativistic Fermi-gas calculations and with semi-exclusive electron-nucleus scattering data. Our results demonstrate that an accurate description of nuclear dynamics plays a crucial role in modeling this reaction mechanism. We further present a study of selected electroweak observables relevant to neutrino-scattering experiments.
