Abstract

At s=7\sqrt{s} = 7 TeV, the standard model needs at least 10(fb)110\, (fb)^{-1} integrated luminosity at LHC to make a definitive discovery of the Higgs boson. Using binary tetrahedral (TT^{'}) discrete flavor symmetry, we discuss how the decay of the lightest TT' Higgs into γγ\gamma\,\gamma can be effectively enhanced and dominate over its decay into bbˉb \, \bar{b}. Since the two-photon final state allows for a clean reconstruction, a decisive Higgs discovery may be possible at 7 TeV with the integrated luminosity only of 1(fb)1\sim 1\, (fb)^{-1}.
