Abstract

In this study, computational analysis of neutral Higgs bosons hh, HH and AA is carried out within the parameter space of Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) type-I in exact alignment limit of sin(βα)=1\sin{(\beta - \alpha)} = 1 at compact linear collider. Assuming Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) scenario where the electron-positron beams will be collided at s\sqrt{s} = 1.5 TeV. Two different values of predicted integrated luminosities are used in our calculations, 1000 fb1fb^{-1} and 2500 fb1fb^{-1}. Three signal processes e+eZhhjjbbˉbbˉe^+ e^- \rightarrow Zhh \rightarrow jjb\bar{b}b\bar{b}, e+eZHHjjbbˉbbˉe^+ e^- \rightarrow ZHH \rightarrow jjb\bar{b}b\bar{b} and e+eZhhjjbbˉbbˉe^+ e^- \rightarrow Zhh \rightarrow jjb\bar{b}b\bar{b} are selected for analysis. The polarized colliding beams are used to enhance the signal production cross-section. Low tanβ\tan{\beta} and equal Higgs masses regime is chosen in favor of Hadronic decay of ZZ boson and HbbˉH \rightarrow b\bar{b}. Different signal scenarios are selected and event generation is performed for each process separately. The WW and ZZ boson, as well as top quark backgrounds are analyzed. Signal significance is computed at each Higgs mass hypothesis for three signal processes. After a comprehensive study, we did not find sizeable amount of signal events on top of the background but still, signal significance is found to be larger than 1, without taking into account the detector effects and systematics. The maximum calculated value of signal significance is observed to lie in the range of 150 \leq mHm_H \leq 250 GeV for ZhhZhh while for ZHHZHH the range is 175 \leq mHm_H \leq 200 GeV at 1000 fb1fb^{-1} and 175 \leq mHm_H \leq 225 GeV region at 2500 fb1fb^{-1}. Similarly, for ZAAZAA process, the significance is highest at mAm_A = 175 GeV for both 1000 and 2500 fb1fb^{-1}.
