Abstract

We study the one-loop prediction for the single production of a SM-like Higgs boson in association with a photon in electron-positron collisions in the context of the two Higgs doublet type-II seesaw model (2HDMcT2HDMcT). We explore to what extent the new scalars in the 2HDMcT2HDMcT spectrum affect its production cross-section, the ratio Rγh1R_{\gamma h_1} as well as the signal strengths RγZR_{\gamma Z} and RγγR_{\gamma \gamma} when h1h_1 is identified with the observed SMSM Higgs boson within the 2HDMcT2HDMcT delimited parameter space. More specifically, we focus on e+eh1γe^+e^- \to h_1\gamma process at one-loop, and analyzed how it evolves under a full set of theoretical constraints and the available experimental data, including BXsγB\to X_s\gamma limit at 95%\% C.L. Our analysis shows that these observables are strongly dependent on the parameters of the model, especially the mixing angel α1\alpha_1, the potential parameters λ7\lambda_{7}, λ9\lambda_{9}, the trilinear Higgs couplings, with a noticeable sensitivity to α1\alpha_1. We found that σ(e+eh1γ)\sigma (e^+e^- \to h_1\gamma) can significantly be enhanced up to 8.1×1028.1\,\,\times 10^{-2} fb, thus exceeding the Standard Model prediction. Additionally, as a byproduct, we also observed that Rγh1R_{\gamma h_1} is entirely correlated with both the h1γγh_1\to\gamma\gamma and h1γZh_1\to\gamma Z signal strengths.
