This article discusses the potential of the e+e- Linear Collider (ILC) and its future upgrades, such as CLIC, for studying the Higgs boson and Supersymmetry (SUSY). It highlights the importance of precision measurements and benchmark processes for validating anticipated results. The article also presents various physics signatures and event topologies that need to be measured with high accuracy at the ILC.

Towards Physics at the Linear Collider Naturalness gives an indication on the scale of New Physics, once mH is known; Expect Higgs discovery at Tevatron or LHC • EW data from LEP/SLC/Tevatron • indicate that mH is light, or there • is New Physics of certain specific • types [Peskin, Wells, 2001]: • if mH < 180 GeV rich program • of precision mapping of Higgs • profile at ILC; • if NP, ILC/CLIC best suited • for detailed mapping through • EW data + direct searches. mH < 182 GeV
