Using Rapidity Gaps to Distinguish Between Higgs Production by W and Gluon Fusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
The possibility of distinguishing between two higgs production mechanisms, W fusion and gluon fusion, due to rapidity gap existence is investigated using the Monte Carlo event generator PYTHIA. It is shown that, considering the designed CM energy and luminosity for the LHC, it is not possible to distinguish between the two higgs production processes as, for a given integrated luminosity, they lead to the same number of events containing a rapidity gap.

Large Rapidity Gaps between Jets at HERA and at the Tevatron
In this talk I consider the formation of a rapidity gap in hadron production between two jets. To appear in the Proceedings of the International Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering and Related Phenomena Roma, Italy, April 1996 Rapidity gaps in hadron production between two jets have been observed in photoproduction at HERA [1] and in p p̄ collisions at the Tevatron [2], where it was found that...

We summarize the discussions on the value of the survival probabilities of the large rapidity gap ( LRG ) processes at Durham WS’98. 1) Email: [email protected] . 2) Email: [email protected]. 3) Email: [email protected] 1. When we calculate the cross sections with the LRG such as the diffractive (double diffractive (DD)) processes or two jets production with the LRG between them, ...
متن کاملUnintegrated gluon distributions and Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions
Inclusive cross sections for Higgs boson production in proton-proton collisions are calculated in the formalism of unintegrated gluon distributions (UGDF). Different UGDF from the literature are used. Although they were constructed in order to describe the HERA deepinelastic scattering F2 data, they lead to surprisingly different results for Higgs boson production. We present both two-dimension...
متن کاملHiggs production plus two jets at hadron colliders
In this talk we present a calculation of Higgs production via gluon fusion in association with two jets, including the full top-quark mass dependence, and compare it to the large top-mass limit. We find that the large top-mass limit is a good approximation as long as the Higgs mass is smaller than the top quark pair mass, and the jet transverse energies are smaller than the top mass. In additio...
متن کاملKinematical Limits on Higgs Boson Production via Gluon Fusion in Association with Jets
Abstract: In this paper, we analyze the high-energy limits for Higgs boson + two jet production. We consider two high-energy limits, corresponding to two different kinematic regions: (a) the Higgs boson is centrally located in rapidity between the two jets, and very far from either jet; (b) the Higgs boson is close to one jet in rapidity, and both of these are very far from the other jet. In bo...
