The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7fb-1. The search considers H H resonances with masses between 1 and 3TeV, having final states of two b quark pairs. Each Higgs boson is produced with large momentum, and the hadronization products of the pair of b quarks can usually be reconstructed as single large jets. The background from multijet and t t ¯ events is significantly reduced by applying requirements related to the flavor of the jet, its mass, and its substructure. The signal would be identified as a peak on top of the dijet invariant mass spectrum of the remaining background events. No evidence is observed for such a signal. Upper limits obtained at 95 % confidence level for the product of the production cross section and branching fraction σ(gg→X)B(X→HH→bb¯bb¯) range from 10 to 1.5 fb for the mass of X from 1.15 to 2.0TeV, significantly extending previous searches. For a warped extra dimension theory with a mass scale ΛR= 1 TeV, the data exclude radion scalar masses between 1.15 and 1.55TeV. © 2016, CERN for the benefit of the CMS collaboration.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess[No Keyword Available]Article2-s2.0-8497842963010.1140/epjc/s10052-016-4206-610.1140/epjc/s10052-016-4206-6
