Precise Predictions for Higgs Production in Neutralino Decays

Abstract

Complete one-loop results, supplemented by two-loop Higgs propagator-type corrections, are obtained for the class of processes chi^0_i->chi^0_j h_a in the MSSM with CP-violating phases for parameters entering the process beyond lowest order. The parameter region of the CPX benchmark scenario where a very light Higgs boson is unexcluded by present data is analysed in detail. We find that the decay chi^0_2->chi^0_1 h_1 may offer good prospects to detect such a light Higgs boson.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures; to appear in the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Supersymmetry and the Unification of Fundamental Interactions (SUSY09), Boston, USA, 5-10 Jun 200
