Radiative corrections to single Higgs boson production in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation

For energies relevant to future linear colliders, $\sqrt{s} \gsim 500$ GeV, the WW fusion channel dominates the Higgs boson production cross section $e^+ e^- \to \barν νh^0$. We have calculated the one-loop corrections to this process due to fermion and sfermion loops in the context of the MSSM. As a special case, the contribution of the fermion loops in the SM has also been studied. In general, the correction is negative and sizeable of the order of 10 percent, the bulk of it being due to fermion loops.
