Description

We study resonant pair production of heavy particles in fully hadronic final states by means of jet substructure techniques. We propose a new resonance tagging strategy that smoothly interpolates between the highly boosted and fully unboosted regimes, leading to approximately constant signal efficiencies and background rejection factors for the whole allowed mass range. As a case study, we apply this technique to pair production of Standard Model Higgs bosons decaying into b quark pairs in generic New Physics theories, using Radion and Graviton production in warped extra dimensions models as benchmark scenario.
