Reconstruction and analysis methods for searches of Higgs bosons in the decay mode H sup 0 ->bb at hadron colliders

In this work, reconstruction and analysis methods for several channels with H sup 0 -> bb decay are developed for the first time, in the CMS collaboration. Of course, these methods can be applied at the LHC in general. To some extend, they are also useful at the Tevatron, where the Higgs boson searches depend even more on channels with bb in the final states. After an introduction, where more general topics are explained, the specific studies of this work are discussed: reconstruction and analysis methods for Higgs bosons in the bb decay mode. In the same context, the CMS detector performance and the resulting physics reach is evaluated.
