We discuss how correlations among momenta of the decay products may yield information about the CP-parity of the Higgs particle. These are correlations of decay planes defined by the momenta of pairs of particles as well as correlations…
In a more general electroweak theory, there could be Higgs particles that are odd under $CP$. When such particles decay via vector bosons to two fermion-antifermion pairs, the momenta of those will be correlated in a way which is determined…
We consider an extension of the Standard Model where some Higgs particle is not an eigenstate of $CP$, and discuss the possibility of extracting signals of the resulting $CP$ violation. In the case of Higgs decay to four fermions we study…
In a more general electroweak theory, there could be Higgs particles that are odd under $CP$. Correlations among momenta of the initial electron and final-state fermions are in the Bjorken process sensitive to the $CP$ parity. Monte Carlo…
In a more general electroweak theory, there could be Higgs particles that are odd under $CP$, and also Higgs-like particles which are not eigenstates of $CP$. We discuss distributions which for the Bjorken process are sensitive to the $CP$…
We demonstrate that decay angle correlations in $\taum\taup$ and $t\anti t$ decay modes could allow a determination of whether or not a neutral Higgs boson is a CP eigenstate. Sensitivity of the correlations is illustrated in the case of…
We propose three ways to determine the CP eigenvalue of the Higgs boson at the hadron collider as follows: 1. We determine the Higgs CP eigenvalue from the production cross section which is affected by the CP eigenvalue of the Higgs boson.…

The CP structure of the Higgs sector will be of great interest to future colliders. The measurement of the CP properties of candidate Higgs particles will be essential in order to distinguish models of electroweak symmetry breaking, and to…
The search and the probe of the fundamental properties of Higgs boson(s) and, in particular, the determination of their charge conjugation and parity (CP) quantum numbers, is one of the main tasks of future high-energy colliders. We…
This study utilises the Higgs Characterization model to investigate the $CP$ properties of the Higgs coupling to the top quark using the $tH$ and $t\bar{t}H$ generation processes. This is done via simulations of proton-proton collisions…
Possibilites for measuring the $J^{PC}$ quantum numbers of the Higgs particle through its interactions with gauge bosons and with fermions are discussed. Observables which indicate CP violation in these couplings are also identified.
The violation of CP symmetry at the electro-weak scale is one of the essential ingredients for electro-weak baryogenesis. It is therefore of great interest to map the CP properties of the Higgs sector in as much detail as possible. A linear…
Since decays to four leptons is widely considered a promising way to search for the Higgs particle, we show how the same final state can also be used to search for signals of CP nonconservation. Energy asymmetries and triple correlations…
We demonstrate how the transverse tau tau spin correlations can be used to determine whether a decaying Higgs boson is a mixed CP eigenstate, thereby directly probe the presence of CP violation in the neutral Higgs boson sector. We…
The $\mathcal{CP}$ structure of the Higgs boson in its coupling to the particles of the Standard Model is amongst the most important Higgs boson properties which have not yet been constrained with high precision. In this study, all relevant…
Current experiments do not support, as ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider reported, that the Higgs-like resonance discovered in July 2012 is a pure CP-odd state. We examine a general $hZZ$ vertex which contains…
The optimal procedure for extracting the coefficients of different components of a cross section which takes the form of unknown coefficients times functions of known kinematical form is developed. When applied to $\epem\to t\anti t+$Higgs…
In this paper we investigate methods to study the $t\bar{t}$ Higgs coupling. The spin and CP properties of a Higgs boson are analysed in a model-independent way in its associated production with a $t\bar{t}$ pair in high-energy $e^+e^-$…
We review the production of scalar Higgs-like particles in high-energy electron-electron collisions, via the fusion of electroweak gauge bosons. The emphasis is on how to distinguish a CP-even from a CP-odd Higgs particle. Among the more…
