A Study of $H \rightarrow WW^* \rightarrow l \nu jj$ at CMS

ORAL

Abstract

One of the most challenging channels for observing Higgs boson production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a Higgs which is produced via the Vector Boson Fusion process and which then decays $H \rightarrow WW^{*} \rightarrow \ell \nu jj$ ($\ell$ is an electron or muon, j is a jet). We present results of a study of the sensitivity of the CMS experiment for this process, assuming Higgs mass at 120 $GeV/c^2$.
