The Standard Model Higgs : Discovery Potentials and Branching Fraction Measurements at the NLC

We discuss discovery potentials for a 140 GeV Standard Model Higgs boson produced in e+e- collisions at 360 GeV, including all potential irreducible and reducible background contributions. In the second part of the study, we estimate the uncertainties expected for the branching fractions of the Higgs into bb-bar, tau+tau-, WW* and into cc-bar+gg including a realistic error estimation of the inclusive bremsstrahlung Higgs production cross section.
