Polarized Z bosons from the decay of a Higgs boson produced in association with two jets at the LHC

Abstract Investigating the polarization of weak bosons provides an important probe of the scalar and gauge sector of the Standard Model. This can be done in the Higgs decay to four leptons, whose Standard-Model leading-order amplitude enables to generate polarized observables from unpolarized ones v...
