Grant Description

Extended Higgs models predict the existence of additional heavy Higgs bosons decay into gauge bosons and the Standard-Model Higgs bosons.

In this project, the student will develop a search for charged and neutral heavy Higgs bosons, decaying via gauge and SM Higgs bosons into final states with B-mesons and charged leptons. He will use machine-learning methods to optimize the separation between signal and backgrounds.
