Search Strategy for the Standard Model Higgs Boson in the $H \to ZZ^{(*)} \to 4\mu$ Decay Channel using $M(4\mu)$-Dependent Cuts

We present a strategy for a Higgs-boson search in its four-muon decay channel Hmu. The method is based on using optimized, smooth M(4mu)-dependent cuts that automatically ensure an optimal signal-to-background ratio for any mass at which the Higgs boson might appear. The Higgs boson then manifests i...
