Description
The HH/SH resonant searches in the bbWW and bbZZ decay channels are presented in this talk. This channel is particularly important for beyond standard model searches because for certain values of the S mass, i.e. below the HH threshold and above the ZZ (or WW) threshold, this could be the SH decay channel with the largest branching ratio. Dedicated searches are carried out at the CMS experiment to cover multiple WW/ZZ decay channels with different reconstruction techniques depending on the Lorentz-boost of the resonances.
