Application of the matrix element method to Higgs boson pair production in the channel $\text{HH}\to \text{b}\bar{\text{b}}\text{W}{\text{W}}^{\ast }$ at the LHC

Karl Ehatäht, Christian Veelken

We apply the matrix element method (MEM) to the search for non-resonant Higgs boson pair ($\text{HH}$) production in the channel $\textrm{HH} \to \textrm{b}\bar{\textrm{b}}\textr…
