Search for a Standard Model Higgs Boson in CMS via Vector Boson Fusion in the $H \to WW \to l\nul\nu$ Channel

We present the potential for discovering the Standard Model Higgs boson produced by the vector-boson fusion mechanism. We considered the decay of Higgs bosons into the W+W- final state, with both W-bosons subsequently decaying leptonically. The main background is ttbar with one or more jets produced...

description We present the potential for discovering the Standard Model Higgs boson produced by the vector-boson fusion mechanism. We considered the decay of Higgs bosons into the W+W- final state, with both W-bosons subsequently decaying leptonically. The main background is ttbar with one or more jets produced. This study is based on a full simulation of the CMS detector, and up-to-date reconstruction codes. The result is that that a signal of 5 sigma significance can be obtained with an integrated luminosity of 12-72 1/fb for Higgs boson masses between 130 < M(H) < 200 GeV. In addition, the the major background can be measured directly to 7% from the data with an integrated luminosity of 30 1/fb. In this study, we suggested a method to obtain information in Higgs mass using the transverse mass distributions.
