Z polarization in the Higgs boson signal at the CERN LHC
- Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242 (United States)
We examine a method of studying the Z polarization in H{r_arrow}ZZ{r_arrow}scr(l){sup +}scr(l){sup {minus}}{nu}{bar {nu}} in proton-proton collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Included are the dominant contributions: gluon fusion production of the Higgs boson, continuum production of Z pairs, and the Z+missing jet QCD background. The polarization signal is distinguishable from the background for Higgs boson masses less than or equal to {approximately}700 GeV, for an integrated luminosity of 10{sup 5} pb{sup {minus}1}. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
