Amor dos;[et al.] - Angular distributions in t(t)over-barH(H -> b(b)over-bar) reconstructed events at the LHC. Physical Review. D. ISSN. 1550-7998. Vol. 92, N.º 3 (2015), pp. 034021-1-034021-101550-79981550-2368http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/5866The associated production of a Higgs boson and a top-quark pair, t (t) over barH, in proton-proton collisions is addressed in this paper for a center of mass energy of 13 TeV at the LHC. Dileptonic final states of t (t) over barH events with two oppositely charged leptons and four jets from the decays t -> bW(+) -> bl(+)v(l), (t) over bar -> (b) over barW(-) -> (b) over barl(-)(v) over bar (l) and h -> b (b) over bar are used. Signal events, generated with MadGraph5_aMC@NLO, are fully reconstructed by applying a kinematic fit. New angular distributions of the decay products as well as angular asymmetries are explored in order to improve discrimination of t (t) over barH signal events over the dominant irreducible background contribution, t (t) over barb (b) over bar. Even after the full kinematic fit reconstruction of the events, the proposed angular distributions and asymmetries are still quite different in the t (t) over barH signal and the dominant background (t (t) over barb (b) over bar).engModel HIGGS-BOSONAtlas detectorTop quarksMassless particlesBroken symmetriesMadanalysis 5AssociationSearchCollisionsNLOjournal article10.1103/PhysRevD.92.034021
