Abstract

In this study, the direct pair production of the pseudoscalar Higgs boson at a photon-photon collision is analyzed in the context of two Higgs doublet model, taking account the complete one-loop contributions. In order to illustrate the effect of the new physics, four benchmark points scenarios, which are consistent with theoretical and current experimental constraints, are chosen in the type-I of THDM with an exact alignment limit. In these benchmark points, the CP even lightest Higgs boson (h0h^0) have the Standard Model like couplings to the gauge bosons. The effect of individual contributions from each type of one-loop diagrams on the total cross section are examined in detail. The dependence of total cross section on the center-of-mass energy is also presented at the various polarization configurations of the incoming photons. Moreover, the regions m122tanβm_{12}^2-\tan\beta and mAtanβm_A-\tan\beta in the parameter space of the THDM are scanned for some fixed values of other parameters. The box-type diagrams make a much larger contribution to the total cross section than the others at high energies. Total cross section can be enhanced by a two factor thanks to opposite polarized photons as well as threshold effects.
