Abstract

Many new physics models predict the existence of extra neutral gauge bosons ($Z'$). Inspired by the recent development on Higgs search, we study the properties of $Z'$ via the Higgs and $Z$ boson associated production. The couplings of $Z'$ to quarks can be investigated through $pp \to Z'\to ZH\to l^+l^-b \bar b$ process, which also provides extraordinary signal for understanding the properties of $Z'ZH$ interaction. The standard model background processes can be significantly suppressed by adopting appropriate kinematic cuts. The charged lepton angular distributions are related to the ratio of chiral couplings of $Z'$ to quarks via $Z'ZH$ interaction.
