Higgs Production in Charged Current Six Fermion Processes at Future $e^+e^-$ Colliders

We study higgs physics at future $e^+e^-$ colliders taking into account the full set of Feynman diagrams for six fermion final states, which are produced for higgs masses near or above the two $W$'s threshold. In particular we examine events where one isolated lepton or two isolated leptons of different flavours signal the presence of two $\rm W^*$'s. For these charged current processes, a detailed analysis of the relevance of irreducible and QCD background shows that appropriate cuts are generally sufficient to deal with it in the case of reconstructed or missing higgs mass distributions. These latter are however affected by a non negligible distortion and shift of the maximum.

Six fermion processes at future $e^+ e^-$ colliders: signal and irreducible background for top, WWZ and Higgs physics in charged current final states

We compute several total and differential cross sections relevant to top, WWZ and Higgs physics at future $e^+e^-$ colliders taking into account the full set of Feynman diagrams for six fermion final states. We examine in particular charged current processes, in which final particles cannot be formed by three Z's decay. We include in our calculations initial state radiation and beamstrahlung effects, and the most important QCD corrections in an approximate (naive) form. We also compare this complete approach with production $\times$ decay approximation.

Semileptonic six fermion processes at future $e^+ e^-$ colliders: signal and irreducible background for top and WWZ physics

We compute several total and differential cross sections relevant to top and WWZ physics at future $e^+e^-$ colliders taking into account the full set of Feynman diagrams for six fermion final states. We also include in our calculations initial state radiation and beamstrahlung effects, and the most important QCD corrections in an approximate (naive) form. We compare such a complete approach with "production x decay" approximation and we suggest that in many physical studies the former is needed.
