Abstract
Plans for an international linear collider could change dramatically if the Large Had–ron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva does not find evidence for the Higgs boson or supersymmetry. Most particle physicists agree that the next big machine after the LHC should be a linear electron-positron collider with an energy of 500–1000GeV. However, it is becoming clear that CERN would prefer the linear collider to be based on CLIC, a novel design being developed at the lab that would generate collision energies of 3–5TeV. Previously most particle physicists had assumed that CLIC would be more suitable for the next-but-one linear collider.
