Abstract

In this article general analysis strategy for search for Higgs boson produced via weak vector bosons fusion (VBF) and decaying to bottom quarks with CMS experiment at LHC is presented. 2016 and 2018 data of pp-collisions at 13 TeV corresponding to integral luminosity of ~91 fb–1 and simulated data were used. Expected signal significance in terms of standard deviations from pure background hypothesis estimated to be \( \sim \,3\sigma \).
