Study of the $h{\hat{I}}^{3}Z$ coupling using $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to h{\hat{I}}^3$ at the ILC

Abstract

We study the $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to h{\hat{I}}^3$ process at the International Linear Collider (ILC) to probe new physics in the $h{\hat{I}}^{3}Z$ coupling. The study is performed at a center of mass energy of 250 GeV and is based on the full simulation of the International Large Detector (ILD). The expected signal significance is found to be 0.53 $\ddot{I}ƒ$ for an integrated luminosity of 2000 fb${}^{-1}$ in the case of the standard model. The corresponding 95 $\%$ confidence level upper limit for the signal cross section is 1.08 fb for left-handed beam polarization.
