The authors' main claim We show that using fat jets the semi-leptonic ZZ mode significantly increases the number of signal events with a similar statistical significance as the leptonic mode.

The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The paper
Original abstract

Searches for a heavy Standard Model Higgs boson focus on the 'gold plated mode' where the Higgs decays to two leptonic Z bosons. This channel provides a clean signature, in spite of the small leptonic branching ratios. We show that using fat jets the semi-leptonic ZZ mode significantly increases the number of signal events with a similar statistical significance as the leptonic mode.

  • Further signal-over-background ($S/B$) improvements can be achieved by requiring ΔR_ZZ < 3.2 and by trimming and pruning [ref] of the hadronic $Z$ event candidates on the massless cell level of the event [ref] , as described in detail in Ref. [ref] .

  • This is achieved by requiring the $V$ decay product candidates to recombine the $V$ mass within a certain mass window, which is essentially set by the experiment's resolution (see Refs. [ref] ).
