Higgs boson and massive-graviton productions in association with two jets via vector-boson fusion processes and their decays into a vector-boson pair at hadron colliders are studied. We show that non-trivial azimuthal angle correlations of the jets in the production and in the decay of massive spin 0 and 2 bosons are manifestly expressed as the quantum interference among different helicity states of the intermediate vector-bosons.
