Abstract
The possibility of distinguishing between two Higgs boson production mechanisms, W fusion and gluon fusion, due to rapidity gap existence is investigated using the Monte Carlo event generator P Y T H I A. It is shown that, considering the designed c.m. energy and luminosity for the CERN LHC, it is not possible to distinguish between the two Higgs boson production processes as, for a given integrated luminosity, they lead to the same number of events containing a rapidity gap. © 1996 The American Physical Society.Keywords
