Abstract

We examine the exclusive signature ppWHν  bbˉpp \to WH \to \ell \nu\;b \bar b at the LHC. Although the backgrounds, principally arising from top production and WjjWjj, are quite severe, it is shown that judicious application of phase-space cuts and the use of bb-tagging can in fact greatly enhance the detectability of this channel. (Presented at the Eighth Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields Albuquerque, New Mexico, August 2-6, 1994.)
