Production of MSSM Higgs bosons in photon–photon collisions

Abstract

The heavy neutral Higgs bosons H, A in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model can be produced as single resonances at high-energy γγ colliders. We have studied the prospects of the search for these particles in b b ̄ and neutralino-pair final states. The Higgs bosons can be found with masses up to 70–80% of the initial e ± e − collider energy for medium values of tg β , i.e., in areas of the supersymmetric parameter space not accessible at other colliders.
