CP VIOLATION IN FERMIONIC DECAYS OF HIGGS BOSONS

Abstract

We demonstrate that decay angle correlations in $\taum\taup$ and $t\anti t$ decay modes could allow a determination of whether or not a neutral Higgs boson is a CP eigenstate. Sensitivity of the correlations is illustrated in the case of the $\epem\rta Z \hn$ and $\mupmum\rta \hn$ production processes for a two-doublet Higgs model with CP-violating neutral sector. A very useful technique for minimizing `depolarization' factor suppressions of the correlations is introduced.
