The model-independent determination of the Higgs-boson CP properties at the Photon Collider at TESLA has been studied in detail, for masses between 200 and 350 GeV, using realistic luminosity spectra and detector simulation. We consider a generic model with the CP violating Higgs tensor couplings to gauge bosons. We introduce a new variable describing angular distributions of the secondary WW and ZZ decay products which is very sensitive to the CP properties of the Higgs-boson. Understanding of the detector performance turns out to be crucial, as the influence of the acceptance corrections is similar to the effects of CP violation. From the combined measurement of invariant mass distributions and various angular distributions the phase describing a CP violation can be determined to about 50 mrad after one year of Photon Collider running.

We explore the possibilities to determine the spin/CP properties of the Higgs boson at the LHC. To cover the mass region below the ZZ threshold we make use of the properties of the production in Weak Boson Fusion (WBF) and the decay chain H -> WW -> l nu l nu. In particular, we study the angular correlations of the forward jets and the distribution of the invariant mass of the lepton pair for different hypothetical Higgs like particles.

We present a new method to measure the transverse spin correlation in the $Htotau^+tau^-$ decay. The method has been devised to be insensitive to the beamstrahlung which affects the definition of the beam energy at a linear collider. In the case of two $tautopi^ u$ decays, using the anticipated detector performance of the TESLA project, we get a promising estimation of the error expected on the measurement of a CP violating phase.
We consider new s-channel scalar exchanges in e+e- -> ZZ,W+W- in supersymmetry with a small lepton number violation. We show that a small bilinear R-parity violating term which leads to sneutrino--Higgs mixing can give rise to a significant scalar resonance enhancement in e+e- -> ZZ,W+W-. We use the LEP2 measurements of the WW and ZZ cross-sections to place useful constraints on this scenario. We also find, under conservative assumptions on the relevant parameter space involved, that such an exchange of the sneutrino-like admixture in e+e- -> ZZ,W+W- may be accessible to a 500 GeV e+e- collider.
In the standard model (SM), the $rho$ parameter is equal to 1 and the ratio $lambda_{WZ}$ of Higgs $to ZZ$ and Higgs $to WW$ is also equal to 1 at the tree level. When going beyond the SM with more than one types of Higgs representations these quantities may be different from the SM predictions which can provide crucial information about new physics. There may also exist a certain charged Higgs $h^+$ decays into a $W^+$ and a $Z$. Imposing a custodial symmetry can force the parameter $rho$ to be equal to 1 with certain predictions for $lambda_{WZ}$ and $h^+ to W^+Z$. However, imposing $rho =1$ without custodial symmetry may have different predictions. We show how differences arise and how to use experimental data to obtain information about the underlying physics in a model with the SM plus a real and a complex $SU(2)_L$ triplets.
We study the effects of CP violation in charged Higgs boson production $ppto t H^pm + X$ at the LHC, as well as in the charged Higgs boson decays $H^pm to t b$ and $H^pm to W^pm H_i^0$, $i=1,2,3$. The study is done in the framework of the type II complex Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) with softly broken $Z_2$ symmetry. In this model violation of CP invariance is induced by the complex parameter $m^2_{12}$ of the tree-level Higgs potential. We calculate the CP violating rate asymmetries for $H^+$ and $H^-$ production and decays as well as for the combined processes at one-loop level and perform a detailed numerical analysis. All calculations are done with the automatic amplitude generator FeynArts and the calculational tool FormCalc, for which we have written a complete complex 2HDM model file and relevant fortran drivers. The implementation of the complex 2HDM in FeynArts and FormCalc is described. In comparison with the analogous results in the MSSM, all considered CP violating asymmetries are smaller by an order of magnitude and do not exceed 2 to 3%.
