Abstract

We search for the neutral Higgs sector of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model at LEP 2. At the tree level any experimental constraints on tanβ\tan \beta cannot be set by the Higgs search at LEP 2 with s\sqrt{s} = 175 GeV, whereas at LEP 2 with s\sqrt{s} = 192 GeV tanβ\tan \beta can be set by an experimental constraint. Furthermore the tree level parameter space of the model can be completely explored by the Higgs search at LEP 2 with s\sqrt{s} = 205 GeV. Radiative corrections both to the neutral Higgs boson masses and to the relevant couplings for the scalar Higgs productions give large contributions to the production cross sections of the scalar Higgs bosons at the tree level. The tree level situation at LEP 2 with s\sqrt{s} = 192 GeV as well as with s\sqrt{s} = 205 GeV can be drastically changed by these effects. We expect that a small region of the 1-loop level parameter space of the model via the scalar Higgs production can be explored by the Higgs search at LEP 2.
