ILC Higgs White Paper

Understand

The ILC Higgs White Paper is a review of Higgs Boson theory and experiment at the International Linear Collider (ILC).

• Theory topics include the Standard Model Higgs, the two-Higgs doublet model, alternative approaches to electroweak symmetry breaking, and precision goals for Higgs boson experiments.
• Experimental topics include the measurement of the Higgs cross section times branching ratio for various Higgs decay modes at ILC center of mass energies of 250, 500, and 1000 GeV, and the extraction of Higgs couplings and the total Higgs width from these measurements.
• Luminosity scenarios based on the ILC TDR machine design are used throughout.
