Abstract The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC exposes some of the most profound mysteries fundamental physics has encountered in decades, opening the door to the next phase of experimental exploration. More than ever, this will necessitate new machines to push us deeper into the energy frontier. In this article, we discuss the physics motivation and present the physics potential of a proton–proton collider running at an energy significantly beyond that of the LHC and a luminosity comparable to that of the LHC. 100 TeV is used as a benchmark of the center of mass energy, with integrated luminosities of 3 ab − 1 – 30 ab − 1 .

• Reconsidering the one leptoquark solution: flavor anomalies and neutrino mass (2017, background): “At a future 100 TeV proton-proton collider the pair-production cross section of the leptoquark will be substantially enhanced compared to the LHC with about 1 fb for a 5 TeV leptoquark [128] and thus will be able to probe most of the relevant parameter space for the B-physics anomalies studied here.”
