\subsection{Higgs physics in $\epem$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 500$~GeV}  \label{sec:ee500}  The TLEP physics potential at this centre-of-mass energy would be similar to that of the linear colliders ILC and CLIC, which have nominal luminosities that are comparable at $\sqrt{s}=500$~GeV. The ILC TDR~\cite{cite:ILCTDR} shows that the addition of 500~$\infb$ at 500~GeV to the baseline programme with 250~$\infb$ at 250~GeV and 350~$\infb$ at 350 GeV would improve the precision on all Higgs boson couplings to light fermions and gauge bosons by less than a factor $\sqrt{2}$, still quite far from the sub-per-cent precision provided by TLEP at 240~GeV. The measurement of the invisible width of the Higgs boson would not be improved.
