Higgs Search in the WW* Decay Mode at Photon Linear Colliders

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We present the results of calculations for the process gamma gamma -> W + 2 fermions at a future Photon Linear Collider (PLC). The calculations include at the same time the next-to-leading order Higgs signal and the complete tree level gauge boson background. We present numerical results in the intermediate mass Higgs region 140 GeV < M_H < 2M_W. We propose strategies for the determination of Higgs properties using the leptonic and hadronic final states for both polarized and unpolarized photon beams.
