Luminosity requirements for Higgs resonance studies at the First Muon Collider

Conference ·
OSTI ID:654116
The results of the author`s Higgs resonance studies at the first Muon collider for the on resonance goal of L{sub ave} {approx_equal} 5 {times} 10{sup 30} per cm{sup {minus}2} and L{sub ave} {approx_equal} 5 {times} 10{sup 31} cm{sup {minus}2} is given. Their analysis indicates that L{sub ave} {approx_equal} 5 {times} 10{sup 30} cm{sup {minus}2} is too low and at least an additional order of magnitude increase in luminosity is needed. They investigated the effect of beam polarization on Higgs resonance signals and backgrounds (b{anti b}, {tau}{anti {tau}}, c{anti c}), angular distributions (forward-backward charge asymmetries) and the resulting effective enhancement of the Higgs signal relative to the background, as well as the reduction in scan time required for Higgs discovery.
