Discovering a Light Higgs Boson with Light
arXiv:hep-ex/0001007 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.62.035004
Abstract
We evaluate the prospects for detecting a non-standard light Higgs boson with a significant branching ratio to two photons, in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron. We derive the reach for several channels: $2γ$ inclusive, $2γ+1$ jet and $2γ+2$ jets. We present the expected Run II limits on the branching ratio of $h\toγγ$ as a function of the Higgs mass, for the case of ``bosonic'', as well as ``topcolor'' Higgs bosons.
