Abstract

We have examined how a Standard Model or Supersymmetric Higgs boson h might be detected at possible hadron colliders. The channels W(to ell nu)h(to b b~), Z(to ell ell~)h(to b b~) and W/Z(to jets)h(to tau+ tau-) are most useful. The results imply that h with mass M_h can be detected or excluded for M_h between about 80--130 GeV at any hadron collider with energy greater or similar to 2 TeV and an integrated luminosity greater or similar to 10 fb^-1; high luminosity is the essential requirement. We comment on measuring h couplings and branching ratios.
