Boosted $H\rightarrow b \bar{b}$ Tagger in Run II
Many searches for Higgs bosons decaying to b quark pairs benefit from the increased Run II centre of mass energy by exploiting the large transverse momentum (boosted) Higgs boson regime, where the two b-jets are merged into one large radius jet. ATLAS uses a boosted $H \rightarrow b\bar{b}$ tagger a...

description | Many searches for Higgs bosons decaying to b quark pairs benefit from the increased Run II centre of mass energy by exploiting the large transverse momentum (boosted) Higgs boson regime, where the two b-jets are merged into one large radius jet. ATLAS uses a boosted $H \rightarrow b\bar{b}$ tagger algorithm to separate Higgs signal from background processes (QCD, W and Z bosons, top quarks). The tagger takes as input a large R=1.0 jet with calibrated pseudorapidity, energy and mass scale. It employs b-tagging, Higgs candidate mass, and substructure information. The performance of several operating points in Higgs boson signal, QCD and $t\bar{t}$ all-hadronic backgrounds are presented. Systematic uncertainties are evaluated so that this tagger can be used in analyses. |
