Higgs or Neutral Vector Boson Production with a W Pair in γγ Collisions
نویسنده
چکیده
Exploiting the fact that W pair production in high-energy γγ collisions is very large, we use this process to trigger Higgs, Z or photon radiation. We find that there are sizeable rising cross-sections for triple bosons production. At energies about 1TeV the new mechanism for Higgs production becomes very competitive with the dominant Higgs production processes in e+e− and eγ reactions. The effect of different polarized photon spectra obtained through back-scattered laser light on the electron beam of a linear collider is investigated . We give a special attention to the search of the intermediate mass Higgs in WWH production and discuss how to effectively suppress the backgrounds.

Associated production of Intermediate Higgs or Z - boson with tt̄ pair in γγ collision
Associated production of Intermediate Higgs or Z-boson with t ¯ t pair in γγ collision ABSTRACT Photon-photon linear colliders can be realized by laser back-scattering technique on the next generation linear e + e − colliders. Here the associated productions of an intermediate mass Higgs (IMH) or Z-boson with t ¯ t pair in γγ collisions are studied. Since IMH is very unlikely to decay into t ¯ ...
متن کاملHigh Energy Photon–photon Collisions at a Linear Collider∗
High intensity back-scattered laser beams will allow the efficient conversion of a substantial fraction of the incident lepton energy into high energy photons, thus significantly extending the physics capabilities of an ee linear collider. The annihilation of two photons produces C = + final states in virtually all angular momentum states. An important physics measurement is the measurement of ...
متن کاملHiggs Boson Interference in γγ → W + W −
We study interference effects between resonant and nonresonant amplitudes for the γγ → W + W − process at a backscattered photon-photon collider. We show that a Higgs boson with M H > ∼ 200 GeV is manifest as a resonant dip in the W + W − invariant mass spectrum and we investigate its statistical significance. There has been recent interest in weak gauge boson pair production in γγ collisions a...

We propose a general classification of all four fermion final states in γγ collisions at a future ee Linear Collider and discuss the relation of “signal” and “background” contributions in vector boson production. We utilize the results in a critical examination of the Higgs signal in sub-threshold WW pair production.
متن کاملLightest Neutral Higgs Pair Production in Photon-photon Collisions in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
The cross sections for the lightest neutral Higgs pair production at the one-loop level in photon-photon collisions are calculated in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model(MSSM). We find that the contributions to the lightest Higgs boson pair production cross sections arising from the genuine supersymmetric virtual particles dominate over that arising from the virtual particles in the two-H...
