Diffractive Higgs Production at the LHC
M. Heyssler, Z. Kunszt, W. J. Stirling
Abstract
We use diffractive parton distributions obtained from fits to the diffractive structure function measured at HERA to predict cross sections for single diffractive Higgs production at the LHC. The dominant background processes are also considered. Although some 5% - 15% of Higgs events are predicted to be diffractive in this model, the ratio of signal to background is not significantly improved.
