A neutral spin-0 technipion and an elementary Higgs particle can always be distinguished by an accurate measurement of the coefficient of cos2phi in the azimuthal distribution for a decay mode such as phiJ, JJ, JUPSILON, UPSILONUPSILON, phiZ, JZ, ZZ, W W where the vector bosons other than phi decay into l-bar/sub A/l/sub B/ and/or q-bar/sub A/q/sub B/. When this coefficient is least different, other angular coefficients for the case of a Higgs particle must be maximally different from those for a technipion.
