Only the CP-even admixture h and H couple to Z while the CP-odd A does not: hence the coupling of the H1 is reduced wrt a CPC scenario. hep-ex/0406057 CPX MSSM 95% exclusion areas using scans with different values of arg (At,b).

Higher-order SM effects are negligible Γll is an inclusive quantity: l+ l- is accompanied by an infinite number of soft photons The test of lepton universality can be seen as complementary to searches for monochromatic photons in the γ ττ channel (see B.

A high luminosity B factory would be the ideal place to discover/study it, e.g. looking at - decay into τ+ τ- (): Lepton universality test (M.A.S.L., arXiv:0709.3747) - direct searches for monochromatic photons (see B.
