摘要
We study the production of Z boson pairs at hadron colliders followed by their subsequent decay into muons or electrons. We take into account the processes qqBAR --> ZZ and gg --> ZZ. The calculation incorporates all effects of the polarization of the Z bosons. Particular emphasis is put on the Higgs-signal where we study the angular distribution of the decay leptons, in order to determine the longitudinal polarisation fraction of the Z bosons. We also study the correlation of the decay planes of the leptons from the two Z bosons. This correlation may be significant for light Higgs bosons.
