Resolved Photon Contributions to Higgs Boson Production in gamma gamma Collisions
M. A. Doncheski, Stephen Godfrey
Abstract
We study single Higgs boson production in gamma gamma collisions proceeding via the hadronic content of the photon. These processes complement previous studies of pair and single Higgs production at e+e- colliders. For SM Higgs masses of current theoretical interest, the resolved photon contributions are non-negligible in precision cross section measurements. The charged Higgs cross sections are not competitive with the gamma gamma -> H+ H- process and at best might offer some information about quark-Higgs couplings. Finally, resolved photon production of the heavier Higgs bosons, H0 and A0 of the MSSM, can probe regions of the SUSY parameter space that will complement other measurements. This last process shows some promise in SUSY Higgs searches and warrants further study.
