QCD Corrections to b b/c c Pair Production in Polarized γγ Collisions and the Intermediate Mass Higgs Signal
Abstract
We present production rates of the two- and three-jet final states for the processes of massive c c/b b quark production in circularly polarized photon-photon collisions, including QCD radiative corrections. Lowest order cross section, one-loop virtual correction and gluon emission correction are shown to be of the same order of magnitude for b b quark production at sγγ 100~GeV. It is shown that the signal from intermediate mass Higgs boson is observable at photon-photon collider, although the statistical significance is substantially reduced with respect to the tree level calculation.
