Abstract
In surveying the current particle physics scene, the European Committee for Future Accelerators (ECFA) meeting held at DESY, Hamburg, in June naturally highlighted work at the host Laboratory. A particular focus was development work for the next generation of linear colliders to accelerate electrons and positrons towards a total collision energy of 0.5 TeV. Owing to the inherent simplicity of the annihilation process, the study of electron-positron interactions has yielded a wealth of information on the basic constituents of matter and the forces which act between them. Indeed, an electron-positron collider which covers the mass range between the W-pair production threshold and 500 GeV with a peak luminosity of order 5 x 10{sup 33} cm{sup -2}s{sup -1} will have a rich physics programme complementary to that at the LHC proton-proton collider to be built at CERN. Driven by the physics potential, there is at present a strong world-wide effort directed at providing the technical basis for the construction of TeV electron-positron linear colliders. DESY, in collaboration with more than 30 institutions from 9 countries, is exploring two options, TESLA and SBLC, for a 500 GeV - 2000 GeV linear collider.
