Description

We present standard model predictions for a four fermion reaction e+ e- -> mu+ mu- bar_b b being one of the best detection channels of a low mass Higgs boson produced through the Higgsstrahlung mechanism at a linear collider. We include leading virtual and real QED corrections to all the lowest order Feynman diagrams of e+ e- -> mu+ mu- bar_b b and the complete O(alpha) electroweak corrections to the Z-Higgs production and to the Z and Higgs boson decay widths in the double pole approximation.
