Study of the discovery potential for an invisibly decaying Higgs boson via the associated ZH production in the ATLAS experiment

The decay of a Higgs boson into invisible particles is well motivated in many extensions of the Standard Model. In this note an evaluation of the discovery potential of the ATLAS experiment for an invisibly decaying Higgs boson, produced in association with a Z boson, is discussed. In particular, th...

Sumario:The decay of a Higgs boson into invisible particles is well motivated in many extensions of the Standard Model. In this note an evaluation of the discovery potential of the ATLAS experiment for an invisibly decaying Higgs boson, produced in association with a Z boson, is discussed. In particular, the uncertainties related to the normalization of the dominant backgrounds are addressed.
