Tau Polarisation and its Correlations as a Signal for Higgs Bosons - Universal Spin Interface for TAUOLA Package

Abstract

We show how the tau+ tau- spin correlations can be used to improve the recognition of the parent boson spin, and hence to identify scalar boson H --> tau+ tau- events from the vector boson Z\gamma --> tau+ tau- background in high energy accelerator experiments.
