摘要：
The intermediate mass Higgs boson can be abundantly produced through the process e-gamma --> W-Hnu at TeV e-gamma colliders, which are realized by the laser backscattering method. We search for the signature of W-H --> (jj)(bbBAR) plus missing transverse momentum, with and without considering b tagging. We also analyze all the potential backgrounds from e-gamma --> W-Znu, W-W+e-, ZZe-, tbnuBAR, and tte-BAR. With our selective acceptance cuts these backgrounds are reduced to a manageable level. We find that for the entire intermediate mass range 60 - 150 GeV the Higgs boson discovery should be viable. We also present detailed formulas for the helicity amplitudes of these processes.
