We explore the potential of electron-photon colliders to measure fundamental supersymmetry parameters via the processes $e\gamma \to \tilde e \tilde\chi^0$ (selectron-neutralino) and $e\gamma\to \tilde\nu \tilde\chi^-$ (sneutrino-chargino).…

We study the production of a pair of light, neutral, CP-even Higgs bosons in photon--photon collisions within the general Two Higgs Doublet Model (THDM). This is a process for which the lowest order contribution in both, the Standard Model…
