Description

The discovery of the Higgs boson marked the beginning of a new era in HEP. Precision measurement of the Higgs boson properties and exploring new physics beyond the Standard Model using Higgs as a tool become a natural next step beyond the LHC and HL-LHC. Among the proposed Higgs factories worldwide, the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is proposed by the Chinese HEP community and to be hosted in China. The CEPC will be located in a tunnel with about 100km circumference. It will operate at CME of 240 GeV as a Higgs factory. It can also operate at lower energy as W and Z boson factory. In this talk, the overview and global aspects of the CEPC project, highlights of CEPC accelerator and detector R&D will be presented.

As one of the proposed Higgs factories, the CEPC collider will produce high statistics and clean data of Higgs, Z, and W bosons, potential top with upgradable plan, allowing us to perform unprecedented measurements of the SM and to explore BSM physics including dark matter and others, up to an energy scale of 10 TeV. In this talk, the recent studies on the precisions of measuring Higgs, W, Z, top as well as flavor physics with latest running plans are presented. The comparisons of the physics with HL-LHC and other Higgs factories such as Fcc-ee are addressed as well.
