Description
In this talk I show that the $Z$ boson polarization has relevant information to distinguish the signal $pp \to ZH$, $H \to b\bar{b}$ from the dominant background $Zb\bar{b}$, which is part of the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^2)$ correction to the Drell-Yan $Z$ production, and can help us to finally observe the largest Higgs boson branching ratio.
