Search for Light Higgs Boson at LHC via Production Through Weak Boson Fusion
Abstract
Description
The LHC potential for observing a light Higgs boson produced through Weak Boson Fusion mode, ${\rm qq}\to {\rm qqH}$, is presented. For non-hadronic decays modes of the Higgs boson the process is identified with a final state containing two energetic forward-backward jets, separated with a large rapidity and a hadronically quiet central region. The use of these properties, combined with special features of some of the decay modes enhances the potential of an early discovery of a light Higgs boson both in the Standard Model and beyond. The recent studies done in the context of CMS experiment are discussed.
