Description

We study the inclusive Higgs production rate from the $ZZ$ fusion at future 10 TeV muon collider. With the possible forward detector placed at the high $\eta$ direction outside the shielding cone, the forward energetic muon particles can be detected. The Higgs signal process can be purified using the forward-dimuon information. We show that the 68% projected sensitivity on Higgs inclusive rate from $ZZ$ fusion is 0.75%. The precision measurement of the $ZZ$ fusion process can be converted to the $ZZh$ coupling measurement. We also combine the result with other Higgs coupling precision studies on Muon Collider and HL-LHC as well as future electron-positron collider CEPC to make a global fit on the Higgs $\kappa$ framework.
