Lepton flavor violating Higgs couplings and single production of the Higgs boson via e \gamma collision

Understand

Taking into account the constraints on the lepton flavor violation (LFV) couplings of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson H with leptons from low energy experiments and the recent Compact Muon Solenoid experiment results, we investigate production of the SM Higgs boson associated with a lepton \tau via e \gamma collision at the International Linear Collider (ILC) and Large Hadron Electron Collider experiments.

• The production cross sections are calculated and the LFV signals and the relevant SM backgrounds are examined.
• The LFV signals of the SM Higgs boson might be observed via e \gamma collision in future ILC experiments.
