Abstract

In this proceeding we shall explore the potential of a future epe^- \,p collider to probe the CP-even scalars in a two Higgs doublet model. We consider Type-I in this study. The mass of the lighter scalar particle is considered to be the Higgs-boson, mh=125m_h = 125 GeV, and a heavy scalar mH=270m_H = 270 GeV. The centre of mass energy for the epe^-\,p collision is considered as in the Large Hadron Electron Collider and the Future Circular Hadron Electron Collider configurations, by fixing the proton beam energy to be Ep=7E_p = 7 and 50 TeV, respectively, and an electron beam energy of Ee=60E_e = 60 GeV. Production cross sections of these scalars are also shown at higher electron beam energies. Future prospects of these studies are also discussed.
