Phenomenology of a Higgs triplet model at future $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders
Abstract
In this work, we investigate the prospects of future colliders in testing a Higgs triplet model with a scalar triplet and a scalar singlet under . The parameters of the model are fixed so that the lightest even state corresponds to the Higgs particle observed at the LHC at around GeV. This study investigates if the second heaviest even, the heaviest odd and the singly charged states can be observed at existing and future colliders by computing their accessible production and decay channels. In general, the LHC is not well equipped to produce a Higgs boson which is not mainly doublet-like, so we turn our focus to lepton colliders. We find distinctive features of this model in cases when the second heaviest even Higgs is triplet-like, singlet-like or a mixture. These features could distinguish the model from other scenarios at future colliders.
