Charged and Pseudoscalar Higgs production at a Muon Collider

Abstract

We consider single charged Higgs ($H^{\pm}$) and pseudoscalar Higgs ($A^0$) production in association with a gauge boson at $μ^+μ^-$ colliders. We find that the tree-level t-channel and s-channel contributions to $μ^+μ^-\to H^{\pm}W^{\mp}, A^0Z$ are enhanced for large values of $\tanβ$, allowing sizeable cross-sections whose analogies at $e^+e^-$ colliders would be very small. These processes provide attractive new ways of producing such particles at $μ^+μ^-$ colliders and are superior to the conventional methods in regions of parameter space.
