The International Linear Collider: Report to Snowmass 2021

The International Linear Collider (ILC) is on the table now as a new global energy-frontier accelerator laboratory taking data in the 2030s. The ILC addresses key questions for our current understanding of particle physics. It is based on a proven accelerator technology. Its experiments will challenge the Standard Model of particle physics and will provide a new window to look beyond it. This document brings the story of the ILC up to date, emphasizing its strong physics motivation, its readiness for construction, and the opportunity it presents to the US and the global particle physics community.

Particle Flow Calorimetry

The motivation for PF calorimetry is to experimentally measure the energy of hadron jets with excellent resolution. In particle flow designs, sigma(E)/E < 5% should be possible for a range of jet energies from 50 GeV to 250 GeV, important particularly for experiments at electron-positron colliders (ILC, CLIC, FCCee, CEPC). The high granularity, which is essential for PF calorimetry, can also be very beneficial for removal of background from pile-up on an event-by-event basis making such calorimeters an attractive approach for hadron collider experiments, for example the HGCAL under construction for CMS at the CERN HL-LHC.
