Description
The proposed future Large Hadron electron collider provides sufficient center of mass energies, , to probe heavy particles decaying into W(Z)-boson of mass > 2m (2m). In this work we present a study to produce one such heavy CP even scalar H of mass 2m< m< 2m through charged-current production mode where H → WW, where hadronic decay of W-boson is considered to reconstruct m. Due to the presence of missing energy and forward jet in this channel, it is challenging to reconstruct m with above final state and thus we employed three different reconstruction methods and discuss the significance of each one. For this analysis we consider a benchmark value of m = 270 GeV and ≈ 1.3 TeV with an assumed luminosity of 1 ab.
