Description

We present work towards new methods for precision $e^+$ & $e^-$ luminosity at future Higgs factories. The standard method of using Bhabha scattering ($ee\to ee$) is reviewed. An alternative channel of DiGammas ($ee\to\gamma\gamma$) is presented. A new method, dubbed ''3Beam'', is presented for the first time. 3Beam uses a third beam, comprised of photons, to precisely measure the $e$ & $\gamma$ luminosity. We explore how the $e$ & $\gamma$ luminosity could reduce the $e^+$ & $e^-$ luminosity uncertainty to levels that are acceptable for the goals of future Higgs factories.
