Measurement of the Two-Photon Decay Width of the Intermediate Mass Higgs Bosons in a Photon-Photon Collider
Abstract
The feasibility of a measurement of the partial decay width of the intermediate-mass Higgs boson(MH=120 GeV) into two photons at a photon-photon collider is studied by a simulation. It is found that the two-photon decay width can be measured with the statistical error of 7.6% with the integrated luminosity of 10fb-1. We also discussed a possibility toward further improvement with sophisticated b-quark tagging technique.
