Abstract

We study the effects of the initial state radiation on the ss-channel Higgs boson resonant production at μ+μ\mu^+\mu^- and e+ee^+e^- colliders by convoluting with the beam energy spread profile of the collider and the Breit-Wigner resonance profile of the signal. We assess their impact on both the Higgs signal and SM backgrounds for the leading decay channels hbbˉ, WWh\rightarrow b\bar b,\ WW^*. Our study improves the existing analyses of the proposed future resonant Higgs factories and provides further guidance for the accelerator designs with respect to the physical goals.
