Abstract:
We perform a complete simulation of the process e(+)e(-)-->bbvv, where nu can be an electron, muon, or tau neutrino, in the context of a general Higgs coupling to b quarks. We parametrize the Hbb; coupling as (m(b)/v)(a+igamma(5)b). Taking into account interference effects between pure Higgs and Standard Model contributions, we find that sensitivities of the order of 2% and 20% can be obtained at a future e(+)e(-) collider for deviations of the a and b parameters, respectively, from their Standard Model values. Combining our analysis with an independent measurement of Gamma(H-->bb) can provide evidence about the CP nature of the Higgs sector.

As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are slanted or...

In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene π orbitals.
