Description

The European Strategy for Particle Physics identifies an e+e- Higgs factory as its top priority and the first step towards an ultra-high energy future hadron collider. The Future Circular Collider (FCC) is being proposed at CERN to address these goals. The FCC includes an electron-positron collider (FCC-ee), which will be followed by an energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh).

New long lived particles (LLPs) are connected to many new physics models and could be the key to new physics discoveries at FCC-ee.

This contribution presents an ongoing sensitivity analysis for exotic Higgs boson decays to LLPs at FCC-ee within the FCCAnalyses framework.

The study targets the production of a Higgs boson in association with a Z boson in e+e- collisions at 240 GeV, with the Higgs boson decaying into two long-lived scalars. This builds upon previous work with improved statistics and a refined analysis strategy.
