We present calculations of cross sections for single $W^-$ and $Z$ production and $W^-W^-, W^-Z, W^-\gamma, ZZ$, and $W^+W^-$ pair production within the Standard Model at $e^-e^-$ linear colliders. We evaluate Standard-Model Higgs boson…

The Higgs boson is produced at the LHC through gluon fusion at roughly the Standard Model rate. New colored fermions, which can contribute to $gg\rightarrow h$, must have vector-like interactions in order not to be in conflict with the…
