摘要：

We study the gold-plated purely leptonic signal and background rates at the CERN, LHC for the ZZ, W+W-, W(+/-)Z, and (WW+/-)-W-+/- final states associated with strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking. We work at an energy of root s = 14 TeV, and develop a combination of back-to-back leptonic, central-jet-vetoing and forward-jet-tagging cuts that suppresses the standard-model backgrounds. We find that the LHC with an annual luminosity of 100 fb(-1) will achieve a reasonably good sensitivity to the physics of strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking.
