Abstract
In the standard Higgs model of electroweak symmetry breaking, the Higg s boson is associated with both vector-boson and fermion mass generati on. In contrast, we discuss a two-Higgs-doublet model in which these m asses are associated with two different scalar bosons. We show that th e Higgs boson associated with vector-boson mass generation produces a characteristic peak-dip structure in the cross section for ttBAR-->ZZ via a final-state interaction.
