Physics potential for the H$\rightarrow$ZZ$^{*}$ decay at the CEPC
Abstract: The precision of the yield measurement of the Higgs boson decaying into a pair of $Z$ bosons process at the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is evaluated. Including the recoil $Z$ boson associated with the Higgs production (Higgsstrahlung) total three $Z$ bosons are involved for this channel, from which final states characterized by the presence of a pair of leptons, quarks, and neutrinos are chosen for the signal. Two analysis approaches are compared and the final precision of ${\sigma}_{\mathrm{ZH}}{\cdot}$BR($H \rightarrow ZZ{*}$) is estimated to be 7.9% using a multivariate analysis technique, based on boosted decision trees. The relative precision of the Higgs boson width, using this $H \rightarrow ZZ{*}$ decay topology, is estimated by combining the obtained result with the precision of the inclusive \textit{ZH} cross section measurement.
