| Research Abstract |
The Higgs boson, which is related to the origin of mass, was discovered by the LHC experiment at CERN. In this research, we searched for the decay of Higgs to bottom quark pair. Although we did not find the statistically significant signal, we achieved great improvements in understanding of the background and the bottom quark jet tagging performance, which leads to the improvement of the discovery sensitivity for the coming runs after 2015.
As a part of the silicon detector R&D for the ATLAS upgrade for the high luminosity LHC, we developed the system including the detector and the data acquisition, which will be used for mainly the beam test of a newly developing rad-hard silicon sensors.
