Recently the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have found a Higgs-like boson h with a mass around 125 GeV from several decay modes. The decay mode h →γγ is one of the most important modes in studying whether h is actually the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson. Current data indicate that h→γγ has a branching ratio larger than the SM prediction for h being identified as the SM Higgs boson. To decide whether the h discovered at the LHC is the SM Higgs boson, more data are needed. We study how γγ collider can help to provide some of the most important information about the Higgs boson properties. We show that a γγ collider can easily verify whether the enhanced h →γγ observed at the LHC hold. Different models can be tested by studying Higgs boson decay to γZ. Studying angular distribution of the γγ through on-shell production of h and its subsequent decays into a γγ pair can decide whether the Higgs-like boson h at the LHC is a spin-0 or a spin-2 boson.

In scenarios with sterile (right-handed) neutrinos with an approximate “lepton-number-like” symmetry, the heavy neutrinos (the mass eigenstates) can have masses around the electroweak scale and couple to the Higgs boson with, in principle, unsuppressed Yukawa couplings, while the smallness of the light neutrinos’ masses is guaranteed by the approximate symmetry. The on-shell production of the heavy neutrinos at lepton colliders, together with their subsequent decays into a light neutrino and a Higgs boson, constitutes a resonant contribution to the Higgs production mechanism. This resonant mono-Higgs production mechanism can contribute significantly to the mono-Higgs observables at future lepton colliders. A dedicated search for the heavy neutrinos in this channel exhibits sensitivities for the electron neutrino Yukawa coupling as small as [Formula: see text]. Furthermore, the sensitivity is enhanced for higher center-of-mass energies, when identical integrated luminosities are considered.
