Measurement of the MSSM Higgs-bosons production in gamma gamma -> A,H -> b bbar at the Photon Collider at TESLA

Abstract

Results from a realistic simulation of the heavy MSSM Higgs-bosons A and H production, gamma gamma -> A,H -> b bbar, at the Photon Collider at TESLA are reported. In the scenario where a light SM-like Higgs boson h exists, we study (following M. Muehlleitner et al.) Higgs bosons A and H for masses M_A=200,250,300,350 GeV and tan(beta)=7. This scenario corresponds to parameters region not accessible at LHC or at the first stage of the e^+ e^- collider. NLO estimation of background, analysis of overlaying events, realistic b-tagging and corrections for escaping neutrinos were performed. The statistical precision of the cross-section measurement is estimated to be 8-20%.
