The analysis is performed by considering the CP-non-invariant renormalization-group improved effective potential through next-to-leading order that includes leading logarithms due to two-loop Yukawa and QCD corrections. We find that the three neutral Higgs particles predicted by the theory may strongly mix with one another, thereby significantly modifying their tree-level couplings to fermions and to the $W^\\pm$ and Z bosons. We analyze the phenomenological consequences of such a minimal supersymmetric scenario of explicit CP violation on the production rates of the lightest Higgs particle, and discuss strategies for its potential discovery at high-energy colliders.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "1999-08-18T11:48:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.80.Cp", "12.60.Jv", "11.30.Er" ], "keywords": [ "minimal supersymmetric standard model", "explicit cp violation", "higgs bosons", "tree-level cp invariance", "higgs-boson mass spectrum" ], "tags": [ "journal article", "famous paper" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
