Description

The effect of beam polarization on Higgs resonance signals and backgrounds (bb-bar,ττ-bar,cc-bar) at the First Muon Collider is studied. Angular distributions (forward-backward charge asymmetries) are examined. The resulting effective enhancement of the Higgs signal relative to the background is investigated as is the reduction in scan time required for Higgs 'discovery'
