Discovery Limits for Techni-Omega Production in eγ Collisions

In a strongly-interacting electroweak sector with an isosinglet vector state, such as the techni-omega, $\omega_T$, the direct $\omega_T Z \gamma $ coupling implies that an $\omega_T$ can be produced by $Z \gamma$ fusion in $e\gamma$ collisions. This is a unique feature for high energy $e^+e^-$ or $e^-e^-$ colliders operating in an $e\gamma$ mode. We consider the processes $e^- \gamma \to e^- Z\gamma$ and $e^- \gamma \to e^- W^+ W^-Z$, both of which proceed via an intermediate $\omega_T$. We find that at a 1.5 TeV $e^+e^-$ linear collider operating in an $e\gamma$ mode with an integrated luminosity of 200 fb$^{-1}$, an $\omega_T$ can be discovered for a broad range of masses and widths.
