Abstract
Boson-boson scattering and Higgs production in
boson-boson fusion hold the key to electroweak symmetry breaking.
In order to analyze these essential features of the Standard Model
we have performed a partonic level study of all processes
q1q2→q3q4q5q6lν at the LHC using the exact matrix
elements at (αem6) provided by PHASE, a new MC generator.
These processes include also three boson
production and the purely electroweak contribution to t
production
as well as all irreducible backgrounds.
Kinematical cuts have been studied in order to enhance the VV scattering
signal over background. PHASE has been compared with different Monte Carlo's
showing that a complete calculation is necessary for a correct
description of the process.
