A No-Lose Theorem for Higgs Searches at a Future Linear Collider

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

Assuming perturbativity up to a high energy scale 1016\sim 10^{16} GeV, we demonstrate that a future e+ee^+e^- linear collider operating at s=\sqrt{s} = 500 GeV with L=\int{\cal L}= 500 fb1^{-1} per year (such as the recently proposed TESLA facility) will detect a Higgs boson signal regardless of the complexity of the Higgs sector and of how the Higgs bosons decay.
