Physics Overview

Abstract

Recent developments of physics at the TeV energy scale, especially physics related to the electron-positron linear colliders are briefly reviewed. The topics include the present status of the standard model, Higgs physics, supersymmetry, strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism, and top quark physics.
