Abstract

This paper estimates the Higgs boson production and its decay into muon-antimuon pairs (μ+μ−)
at 14 TeV center of mass energy of proton-proton collisions in the High Luminosity Large
Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) era, assuming integrated luminosities of 0.3 ab -1 and 3 ab -1 . The
events in this study were generated using MonteCarlo simulation tool, MadGraph5_aMC@NLO. The simulation of hadronization, fragmentation, Initial State Radiation (ISR) and Final State Radiation (FSR)
processes was performed using Pythia8. The simulation of the detector was done using
DELPHES. According to the most recent ATLAS and CMS measurements, the mass of the
Higgs boson was assumed to be 125.35 GeV. The expected number of collision events were
calculated for the SM Higgs and all Standard Model processes that give two muons in the final
state. An estimate for the size of data needed for observing the Higgs boson in the above channel
is also calculated.
