A novel technique for Higgs mass estimation in leptonic $H\rightarrow WW$ decays

One of the most important Higgs search channels at the Tevatron and LHC is the $H\rightarrow WW\rightarrow\ell\nu \ell\nu$ final state. Due to the un-reconstructed neutrinos in this decay, the Higgs mass cannot be directly reconstructed. This presentation will outline a novel technique to estimate the Higgs mass in $H\rightarrow WW\rightarrow\ell\nu \ell\nu$ decays, which is applicable in Higgs searches at both the Tevatron and LHC.
