Higgs boson associated production

Higgs-Strahlung (associated production)

Ø 4% of Higgs production mechanism

Ø Full EW corrections known: they decrease the cross section by 5-10%

Experimental advantages:Ø Vector boson (V) decay leptonically: è Benefit from lepton triggers Ø V-Boost: Further reduce background requiring high vector-pT

Ø For ZH at NNLO, further diagrams from gg initial stateØ Important at the LHC (+2-6% effect up to +14% at high-pT)

20/10/2020 L. Mastrolorenzo – Higgs 2020

H®bb physics case and VH roleØ Unique final state to measure coupling with down-type quarksØ H®bb has the largest BR (58%) for mH=125 GeVØ Drives the uncertainty on the total Higgs boson width

• Constraints potential BSM contributionsØ Only recently observed by both ATLAS and CMS

3

• High BR• Low mass resolution• Low S/B

• Highly efficient b-jets idenRficaRon• Improved resoluRon on m(bb)• Full event informaRon to increase S/B

VH production plays a crucial roleØ W/Z decays leptonicallyØ W/Z produced generally back-to-back wrt HiggsØ Possible to exploit the W/Z transverse boostè Provides the highest sensitivity to Hàbb

25/10/2020 L. Mastrolorenzo – Higgs 2020

Ø 3 channels with 0, 1, and 2 leptons and 2 b-tagged jets • Target Z(νν)H(bb), W(lν)H(bb) and Z(ll)H(bb)

Ø Signal region designed to increase S/B• Large boost for vector boson• Mul=variate analysis • Exploi=ng the most discrimina=ng variables (mbb@, ΔRbb@, b-tag)

Ø Control regions to validate backgrounds and constrain normaliza=onsØ Signal extrac=on: binned maximum likelihood fit of final MVA/mass distribu=on

ATLAS - VH®bb in boosted category

25/10/2020

§ Physics case:Ø The previous ATLAS analyses were mainly sensitive to Higgs boson with a

100<pT<300geV

Ø For higher Higgs boson pT, the Higgs decay product can be so close that it results difficult to reconstruct them as two distinct jets

§ Hàbb boosted analysis strategyØ Full Run-2 dataset (∼139 fb-1) à selected by MET and single-lepton triggers

Ø Categorization based on lepton multiplicity (targeting Z(ll), Z(nn), W(ln))

Ø Higgs boson reconstructed in a single large calorimeter jet (R=1.0) with ≥2 constituents and a pT>250 GeV (same threshold also for vector pT)

Ø The b-tagging algorithm used to identify b-jet is the same as in the resolved analysis

Ø Dominant background: V+jets, tt+jets, single-top, di-bosons

ConclusionsØ The excellent LHC performance has delivered an enormous

dataset:• With full Run-2 dataset, we are measuring precise features of the Higgs boson,

with particular focus on its couplings and CP properties

Ø During Run-2, ATLAS and CMS have both achieved a >5σ observation of the H®bb decay• Combination of several channels: sensitivity dominated by VH(bb)

Ø Exploring more detailed kinematic regions sensitive to BSM effects through STXS and differential distributions• VH production mode has been investigated by ATLAS and CMS in Hà!! and

HàZZà4ℓ• ATLAS carried out the measurements of the VH(bb) process with full Run-2

data, targeting the resolved and boosted regimes of the Higgs boson• ATLAS observed ZH production mode and reached a strong evidence of WH

with the full Run-2 analysis• CMS VH(bb) full Run-2 will be out soon as well

Ø Adopted by the LHC experiments as a common framework for Higgs measurements

Ø Purpose: reduce the theoretical uncertainties that are directly folded into the measurements as much as possible

Ø Allowing for the combination of the measurements between different decay channels as well as between experiments

Ø When combining measurements in different decay channels, one can either assume the SM branching ratios or consider the ratios of the branching ratios as additionalfree parameters.

CMS-DP-2017-049NIPS 2017 paper,CMS-JME-18-002

§ Boosted jet tagger “DeepAK8” adapted on AK15 jetsØ DNN multiclassifier for top, W, Z, Higgs, and QCD jets

Ø Mass decorrelation techniques to mitigate mass sculpting

Ø Validation in data using proxy jets from gàcc

Significant gain in performance[Even larger @high pT]

Resolved-jet: Search Strategy

§ Higgs boson reconstructionØ Pair of jets with the highest CvsL-score è build Higgs candidate 4-vector

Ø Further require: CvsL(max) >0.4 & CvsB(min)>0.2 for the leading jet

§ Multivariate analysis for final signal extractionØ BDT to further discriminate signal from

backgrounds

Ø Dedicated training in each channel

Ø Input variables: H properties, V boson properties,

c-tagging discriminants, event kinematics & object

correlations

§ Final State Radiation (FSR) recoveryØ Improve dijet invariant mass resolution by a few %
