摘要
We discuss the feasibility of seeing a Higgs boson that decays to four partons through a pair of (pseudo) scalars at the LHC. We restrict our search to Higgs bosons produced in association with a W/Z boson at high transverse momentum. We argue that subjet analysis techniques are a good discriminant between such events and W/Z + jets and t (t) over bar production. For light scalar masses (below 30 GeV), we find evidence that a flavor-independent search for such a nonstandard Higgs boson is plausible with 100 fb(-1) of data, while a Higgs decaying to heavier scalars is only likely to be visible in models where scalar decays to b quarks dominate.
