Description
High energy photon-photon interactions provide unique opportunity for studying with high precision the electroweak sector of particle physics at future electron-hadron colliders [1]. In particular, facilities such as the LHeC [2, 3], and its proposed phase-one option at a 0.75 TeV centre-of-mass energy [4], FCC-eh, or SppC-eh, will offer very advantageous experimental conditions and at the same time provide high $\gamma\gamma$ luminosities, for photon-photon centre-of-mass energies reaching the TeV scale.
In this talk we will give an overview of sensitivities for multiple SM, and BSM photon-induced processes at these colliders.
