Description
I will briefly describe, first, the current status of the
H->WW* analysis in CMS and discuss about its main news and
messages. Concentration will be more on our group contribution in this
analysis and the results obtained so far. In the second (and main)
part of the talk, I will focus on the ttbar background as one of the
main background processes of H->WW events. Therefore the approach for
ttbar background measurement is described by introduncing a control
region and optimizing selection cuts which enhance this background and
then using extrapolation of errors the total uncertainty of this
background in the Higgs signal region is estimated. At the end I will
discuss about possible improvements and development of the analysis
and then a final conclusion is made.
