Higgs production in association with a $W$ boson and two energetic tag jets at the LHC is studied for $M_H = 120$ \GeV, with the Higgs decaying to $b\bar{b}$ and the $W$ to $\ell\nu$ ($\ell = e, \mu$), guaranteeing high trigger efficiency.…

The LHC potential for observing a light Higgs boson produced through Weak Boson Fusion mode, ${\rm qq}\to {\rm qqH}$, is presented. For non-hadronic decays modes of the Higgs boson the process is identified with a final state containing two…
We introduce a method to discover the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) through its decay to W^+W^-, where one boson decays to leptons, and the other decays to c+jet. This mechanism is complementary to the decay into dileptons,…
