Decays of Higgs to $b\bar{b}$, $\tau \bar{\tau }$ and $c\bar{c}$ as Signatures of Supersymmetry and CP Phases

Abstract

The branching ratio of the lightest Higgs decay into $b\bar{b}$, $\tau \bar{\tau }$ and $c\bar{c}$ is sensitive to supersymmetric effects. We include in this work the effects of CP phases on the Higgs decays. Specifically we compute the deviation of the CP phase dependent branching ratio from the standard model result. The analysis includes the full one loop corrections of fermion masses including CP phases involving the gluino, the chargino and the neutralino exchanges. The analysis shows that the supersymmetric effects with CP phases can change the branching ratios by as much as 100% for the lightest Higgs decay into $b\bar{b}$ and $\tau \bar{\tau }$ with similar results holding for the heavier Higgs decays. A detailed analysis is also given of the effects of CP phases on the Higgs decays into $c\bar{c}$. The deviations of $R_{b/\tau }$ and $R_{b/c}$ from the standard model result are investigated as a possible signature of supersymmetry and CP effects. Thus a measurement of the decays of the higgs into $b\bar{b}$, $\tau \bar{\tau }$ and $c\bar{c}$ may provide important clues regarding the existence of supersymmetry and CP phases.
