Signal and background samples for Higgs boson decays to four b-jets

<p>Data samples used in the paper <em>Illuminating all-hadronic final states with a photon: Exotic decays of the Higgs boson to four bottom quarks in vector boson fusion plus gamma at hadron colliders.</em> Included are analysis ntuples for the produced background samples and 4 signal samples: VBF with and without a photon for H--&gt;aa--&gt;4b for m_a = 50 GeV and m_a = 25 GeV.</p> <p>Analysis ntuples include only events with 6 total jets (4b final state) or 5 total jets (3b final state). Variables included are 4-vectors for the 2 jets with the highest invariant mass (VBF jets), weighting variables used in the analysis and described in the paper, leading photon 4-vector, and final state (4b/3b) invariant masses and jet separation variables used in analysis and further described in the paper.</p> <p>Samples are simulated using MadGraph5 version 2.7.3, Pythia8, and Delphes. Further details about sample simulation can be found in the paper.</p>
