description The recent discovery of a Higgs-like boson by ATLAS and CMS has drawn the general attention to this topic, promoting the development of tools needed for the study of this new particle. The mass of this boson has been found to be close to 125 GeV=c2, what, as shown in Figure 1, enhances the H ! bb mode over the other possible decays of this particle. Since the mass of the Higgs boson has to be reconstructed from two jets, this mode is particularly challenging in LHCb due to its limited acceptance (when compared with ATLAS or CMS). However, jet b-tagging is expected to be easier due to the highly specic design for b-physics of the detector.
