Description

The Higgs self coupling is a precision measurement that LHC cannot produce. A linear collider detector must be able to perform such measurement therefore this channel can be used as a benchmark to optimize the detector design. The challenge of this analysis is the overwhelming tt background. In order to reduce it, a cut based and a neural network analysis have been performed. After an introduction describing the ILC detector concept and the ZHH channel, I will present results of both analysis.
