Search for Associated Production of Z and Higgs Bosons in e^+e^-bb final states
Abstract
Studies are presented of the search for a light Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a Z boson in the Z ->e^+e^- and h ->bb decay channel using Run II data collected by the Dødetector at the Fermilab pp collider at √s = 1.96 TeV. We also present our current understanding of the most significant background to this process, namely the QCD production of bb associated with the Z boson.
