3 Introduction and Motivation P article content of the standard model(sm) is now complete with therecentdiscoveryofhiggsbosonof massaround GeV,observed by the ATLASand thecmscollaborationsatthelhc. This model describes the universe in terms of elementary particles and their interactions. Itisbasicallyquantumfieldtheoryofgroup. All fundamental particles in the SM, receive their mass through the electroweak symmetry breaking(ewsb) via Higgs mechanism. The more massive a particle, the stronger its interaction with the Higgs boson 2/26

8 Introduction and Motivation DiscoveryofHiggsbosonbytheLHChasestablishedthatEWSBis brought through Higgs mechanism. MassofHiggsbosonisknownquitewell. Spin-Parity measurement favours Spin-0, even parity state. Details are not known yet- OneHiggsormanyHiggs? Exact nature of EWSB potential? Need to understand various couplings precisely. We know: Longitudinal degree of gauge boson originates from Higgs field. It is very exciting time to understand the interaction of Higgs boson with gauge bosons, as well as with itself.

28 Summary and Conclusion The ILC with its clean environment and tunable initial state is better suited to perform precision measurements. We have considered an effective Lagrangian method which provides a model independent way to understand beyond the SM effects, by encoding those in suitable parameters. The selected processes of and productions are best suitedtostudythecoupling. Previous studies have obtained limits on this couplings assuming all other couplings to be standard. New physics effects in the Higgs sector can be probed through an effective Lagrangian in a model independent way. We have considered the limit obtainable on two of the effective coupling parameters, and at an ILC with for the production,and forthe production. 25/26

29 Summary and Conclusion singleparameterlimitwithanintegratedluminosityof give..and.. The above limits are considerably altered if new physics effect present in Higgs-gauge boson couplings. We also studied various kinematic distribution like cos, cos,,,. Where the sensitivity of and, and the influence of other parameters on this sensitivity are clearly demonstrated. Ourstudyhasclearlyillustratedthatprecisepriorknowledgeof, couplingsisnecessarytoeffectivelyprobethecoupling. One may need to rely on the knowledge of coupling from elsewhere, or can consider clever observables, in order to extract meaningful information regarding the triple Higgs coupling.
