Abstract

With the forthcoming conclusion of the operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) after its High-Luminosity phase, attention turns towards the next generation of colliders, which will initially focus on leptonic collisions. Foremost among these is the planned Future Circular Collider (FCC) at CERN. The precision measurements promised by such colliders offer an opportunity to impose significantly stronger constraints on ultraviolet continuation models seeking to address certain shortcomings of the Standard Model. Our aim is to explore the capabilities of the FCC to look for evidence of new physics. Specifically, we intend to exploit how clean the QCD background in lepton colliders is, to probe couplings that could generate extra jets in Minimal Composite Higgs Models (MCHM).
