Higgs-Energy LEptoN (HELEN) Collider based on advanced superconducting radio frequency technology

This Snowmass 2021 contributed paper discusses a Higgs-Energy LEptoN (HELEN) $e^+e^-$ linear collider based on advances superconducting radio frequency technology. The proposed collider offers cost and AC power savings, smaller footprint (relative to the ILC), and could be built at Fermilab with an Interaction Region within the site boundaries. After the initial physics run at 250 GeV, the collider could be upgraded either to higher luminosity or to higher (up to 500 GeV) energies. If the ILC could not be realized in Japan in a timely fashion, the HELEN collider would be a viable option to build a Higgs factory in the U.S.
