Abstract

The doubly charged Higgs bosons Δ\Delta^{--} that are present in exotic Higgs representations can have lepton-number-violating couplings to eee^-e^-. We discuss general constraints and phenomenology for the Δ\Delta^{--} and demonstrate that extremely small values for the eeΔe^-e^-\rightarrow\Delta^{--} coupling (some 8 orders of magnitude smaller than the current limit) would produce observable signals for Δ\Delta^{--} production in direct ss-channel production at an eee^-e^- collider.
