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

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. 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. Samples are simulated using MadGraph5 version 2.7.3, Pythia8, and Delphes. Further details about sample simulation can be found in the paper.
