Abstract:
The Photon Linear Collider (PLC) is considered as an option of the future e+e- International Linear Collider (ILC). The physics potential of such a collider is very rich and complementary to the physics programme of e+e- and hadron machines. It is an ideal place to study the Higgs sector, especially in the gamma-gamma mode of PLC, where the neutral Higgs boson can be produced as a resonance. I will present results of a study of Higgs boson production at the PLC in the Standard Model, as well as in the extension with two scalar doublets: 2HDM and MSSM. Results of the combined analyses (LHC,ILC and PLC) will be shown for a CP conserving and CP violating 2HDM.
