Analysis of Higgs Self-coupling with ZHH at ILC

Abstract

Measurement of the cross-section of ee->ZHH offers the information of the trilinear Higgs self-coupling, which is important to confirm the mechanism of the electro-weak symmetry breaking. Since there is huge background in the signal region, background rejection is key point to identify ZHH events. In this paper, we study the possibility to observe the $ZHH$ events at ILC by using ZHH->vvHH/qqHH events.
