The discovery of H(126) has renewed interest in circular e+e- colliders that
can operate as Higgs factories, which benefit from three unique
characteristics: i) high luminosity and reliability, ii) the availability of
several interaction points, iii) superior beam energy accuracy. TLEP is an e+e-
storage ring of 80-km circumference that can operate with very high luminosity
from the Z peak (90 GeV) to the top quark pair threshold (350 GeV). It can
achieve transverse beam polarization at the Z peak and WW threshold, giving it
unparalleled accuracy on the beam energy. A preliminary study indicates that an
80 km tunnel could be constructed around CERN. Such a tunnel would allow a 100
TeV proton-proton collider to be established in the same ring (VHE-LHC),
offering a long term vision.Comment: This is a contribution to the the Snowmass process 2013: Frontier
