Abstract
In the framework of the electroweak standard model, we investigated, in the center of mass frame, the Higgs boson production in the presence of an intense laser field via annihilation . By comparing our results with those obtained by Djouadi (2008 Phys. Rept. 457 1) for laser-free process, we show that the circularly polarized laser field affects significantly the s-channel Higgs boson production. We find that for a given number of exchanged photons, laser field strength and frequency, the total cross section decreases by several orders of magnitude. These effects of laser field on cross section are found to be consistent with what was found for muon pair production via QED process in the presence of a circularly polarized laser field (Müller et al 2006 Phys. Rev. D 74 074017).
