Description

We present simulation of the dominant off-shell Higgs production mechanisms (gluon fusion, vector boson fusion, and associated production with a vector boson) with subsequent decay to two Z bosons. Effects of Effective Field Theory (EFT) operators on kinematic distributions are modeled for the signal and interfering background diagrams.
