Search for the standard model Higgs boson with MH0≈170 GeV c-2 in W+W- decay mode

This note summarizes the results of a study of the identification of the H0→W+W-→l+l'-νll' signal for MH0 = 170 GeV c-2. This study is motivated by the papers written by Dittmar and Dreiner. We carried out a similar study using Pythia to generate events and a CMSIM calorimeter simulation for the jet veto, and compared with their results. We also show some comparison between Pythia- and ISAJET-generated events for this process.
