  1. 1. Simulation of Higgs boson pair production in Vector Boson Fusion at the LHC

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Daniela Romero; [2021]
    Keywords : Higgs boson; vbf; vector boson fusion; high energy physics; lhc; proton collision; madgraph; simulation;

    Abstract : MadGraph5 is used to generate events with Higgs boson pairs from vector boson fusion (VBF) at leading-order (LO) and next-to-leading-order (NLO) accuracy in QCD. The simulations are used to compute fiducial cross-sections in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, using several kinematic cuts on the outgoing jets, e.g. READ MORE

  3. 2. Studies of a neutral Higgs boson produced in gluon-gluon fusion and vector boson fusion

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Max Isacson; [2014]
    Keywords : neutral; higgs; boson; high energy physics; hep; atlas; lhc; simulation; gluon fusion; vector boson fusion; mechanism;

    Abstract : This paper presents an outline of the generation of mass for the massive Standard Model particles (fermions, $W^\pm$, $Z^0$) through electroweak symmetry breaking via the Higgs mechanism, and how the Higgs boson emerges from this framework. A Monte Carlo study was done on the decay $H\rightarrow\tau\tau$, with one leptonically and one hadronically decaying tau, with two different production channels for the $H$, gluon-gluon fusion (gg) and vector boson fusion (VBF), at $\sqrt s = 7\tev$ with a Higgs mass $m_H = 120\gev$.
