DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Frank Zimmermann (CERN)\, Karl Jakobs (University of
  Freiburg)\n\nThe Future Circular Collider Project – Reference Design Ph
 ase\nDr. Frank Zimmermann\, CERN / Switzerland\nThe Future Circular electr
 on–positron Collider (FCC-ee) is designed as a highest-luminosity Higgs-
 boson\, electroweak\, and top-quark factory. The FCC-ee could be followed\
 , as a potential second step\, by a highest-energy proton–proton collide
 r (FCC- hh)\, installed in the same tunnel. The 2025/26 European Strategy 
 Update has recommended the FCC as the preferred option for the next flagsh
 ip collider at CERN. Since January 2026\, the FCC project has entered the 
 Reference Design Phase (RDP) aimed at enabling possible project approval b
 y CERN Council in 2028.In this seminar\, I first review a few key results 
 from the 2021-2025 FCC Feasibility Study\,including key concepts\, local i
 mplementation\, civil engineering\, and global collaboration\,then report 
 recent evolutions of the accelerator design and examples of technologydeve
 lopment\, and\, finally\, present the next RDP milestones and overall time
 line.\nPerspectives on the Future of High-Energy Collider Physics\nProf. K
 arl Jakobs\, University of Freiburg / Germany\nAfter the discovery of the 
 Higgs boson at the LHC particle physics has entered a new era. With the su
 ccessful data taking over the past decade\, many properties of this partic
 le have been established. Despite this\, important questions remain open a
 nd call for experimental exploration. The Higgs field itself is linked to 
 deep structural questions of the Standard Model of particle physics such a
 s flavour\, naturalness and the stability of the vacuum. In addition\, the
  nature of the dark matter in the universe and the origin of the matter-an
 timatter asymmetry remain unknown. Over the past year\, within the Europea
 n Strategy for Particle Physics process\, the future of European particle 
 physics has been debated\, and recommendations have been expressed for the
  Future Circular Collider (FCC) as the next large flagship collider projec
 t at CERN. In this colloquium\, our present understanding of the profile o
 f the Higgs boson and the importance of its further precise exploration ar
 e discussed\, together with the potential of future colliders in Higgs bos
 on and other areas of physics. The deliberations in the Strategy process a
 nd the rationale for the FCC recommendation are summarized.\nZoom connecti
