Abstract
We present production rates of the two- and three-jet final states for the processes of massive ccBAR/bbBAR quark production in circularly p olarized photon-photon collisions, including QCD radiative corrections . Lowest-order cross section, one-loop virtual correction, and gluon e mission correction are shown to be of the same order of magnitude for bbBAR quark production at square-root s(gammagamma) approximately 100 GeV. It is shown that the signal from an intermediate mass Higgs boson is observable at a photon-photon collider, though the statistical sig nificance is substantially reduced with respect to the tree-level calc ulation.
