An extra Z' gauge boson as a source of Higgs particles    [PDF]

J. Lorenzo Diaz-Cruz, Javier M. Hernandez-Lopez, Javier A. Orduz-Ducuara
Models with extra gauge bosons often require an extended Higgs sector, which contains a rich spectrum of Higgs bosons with properties that deviate from the Standard Model (SM). Such Higgs bosons could be searched using standard mechanisms similar to the SM. However, the existence of the new gauge bosons could provide new production mechanisms, which could probe the non-standard origin of the Higgs particle. In this paper we study how the Z' from a model with extra U(1)' could be used as a source of Higgs bosons. We study 3-bodies decays of the Z' into a Higgs boson and a top anti-top pair or WW pair, namely Z'\to t\bar{t} h, WW h. We find that it is possible to get {\Br'}s as high as 10^{-2} for these modes, which could be studied at future colliders. We also study the production of the Higgs bosons in association with the Z vector boson at a linear collider, through the reaction e^+ e^- \to Z, Z'\to Z+h, including both the resonant and the non-resonant effects.
