TL;DR
This paper proposes a novel Higgs boson search method at the LHC using jet substructure techniques to identify boosted Higgs decays into b-bbar jets, enhancing detection prospects.
Contribution
It introduces a new search strategy leveraging jet substructure for identifying Higgs decays in high-pt WH and ZH production channels.
Findings
Effective identification of collimated b-bbar jets at high transverse momentum.
Complementary material to previous Higgs search methods.
Potential to improve Higgs detection sensitivity at the LHC.
Abstract
These proceedings discuss a possible new search strategy for a light Higgs boson at the LHC, in high-pt WH and ZH production where the Higgs boson decays to a single collimated b-bbar jet. Material is included that is complementary to what was shown in the original article, arXiv:0802.2470.
