Abstract
In this paper we investigate the prospects for measuring the branching fraction of the Standard Model Higgs boson decay into a pair of bosons at the future Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) at 350 GeV and 3 TeV center-of-mass energies. Studies are performed using a detailed simulation of the detector for CLIC, taking into consideration all relevant physics and beam-induced background processes. It is shown that the product of the Higgs production cross section and the branching fraction can be measured with a relative statistical uncertainty of 20% (3.0%) at a center-of-mass energy of 350 GeV (3 TeV) using semileptonic final states, assuming an integrated luminosity of ().
