Abstract
We study the inclusive production at future hadron supercolliders of the standard-model Higgs boson in the intermediate-mass region () and its subsequent decay into two virtual bosons that decay leptonically. Backgrounds from continuum pair production and from topquark pair production with semileptonic decays are investigated. We conclude that the Higgsboson signal may be observed via the decay at the Superconducting Super Collider for if GeV. Here denotes an on- or off-shell boson.
