Title:     Excavating a Buried Higgs

Abstract: Many models of non-Standard Model Higgs decays have been developed, often to evade the LEP exclusion bounds or to reduce fine tuning in the Higgs potential.  Such models often result in a challenging signal for hadron colliders.  I will present discovery prospects for a light "buried Higgs", which decays through a pair of light pseudoscalars to four gluons, at the LHC.  The analysis relies on jet substructure techniques to separate signal from background. Both ttbar + H and V + H are important discovery channels.
