Production mecahnism at LHC
gg → H gluon fusion :
I Highest cross-section but “isolated” production, no associated objects.
VBF vector boson fusion:
I Presence of two forward-backward associated jets;
VH associated with vector boson:
I Clear signature from V = Z /W decay;
ttH/ bbH top-associated production:
I Rich experimental signature, but low cross-section.

Frequently-asked-question:
Q) Why gains in gg→H and qq→qqH are the same? A) accidental!
Q) Why ttH gain is so large? A) phase space opening + large MX=2Mt+MH in gg) Gains can be estimated via parton luminosity ratio if kinematically fully open.

Small peak over rapidly falling continuous background;
key element is ECAL resolution and stability;
I Use Z → ee sample to calibrate and monitor ECAL response;
I CMS has 1 − 1.7 X 0 in front of ECAL: γ conversion reconstruction is crucial;
I BDT γ-jet to identify γ vertex identification;
I problematic with high PU;
I combine info on tracking recoiling against γγ system
