Higgs Quantum Numbers in Weak Boson Fusion

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-06-12 v1 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

Recently, the ATLAS and CMS experiments have reported the discovery of a Higgs like resonance at the LHC. The next analysis step will include the determination of its spin and CP quantum numbers or the form of its interaction Lagrangian channel-by-channel. We show how weak-boson-fusion Higgs production and associated ZH production can be used to separate different spin and CP states.
