A muon collider provides an interesting opportunity to test various aspects of Higgs physics and potential BSM models. For a muon collider, Vector-boson fusion provides the dominant channel for the production of Higgs bosons. We calculate the lowest and higher order Higgs jet distribution as a function of jet invariant mass for the super-renormalizable splitting $h\rightarrow hh$ and compare...
The muon collider is the ideal machine for reaching multi-TeV centre-of-mass energy and high luminosity lepton collisions, thanks to the low beamstrahlung and synchrotron radiation loss compared to $e^+$ $e^-$ colliders.
In such conditions, the number of produced Higgs bosons will allow to measure its couplings to fermions and bosons with an unprecedented precision.
However, in order to...
The determination of the Higgs self-coupling from di-Higgs events with very high precision is one of the clearest benchmarks for the FCC-hh. Its potential has been well established already in several final states. In this talk studies into final states of the di-Higgs system which involve neutrinos are presented. The benefit of studying yet another di-Higgs final state is two-fold: First, any...
The large dataset of about 3 ab-1 that will be collected at the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) will be used to measure Higgs boson processes in detail. Studies based on current analyses have been carried out to understand the expected precision and limitations of these measurements. The large dataset will also allow for better sensitivity to di-Higgs processes and the Higgs boson self coupling....
We present results for Higgs boson pair production in gluon fusion
at NLO (2-loop) QCD including operators in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) framework.
Contributions from subsets of higher order terms in $\frac{1}{\Lambda^2}$,
such as squared dimension-6 operators at cross section level and double operator insertions at amplitude level, are used as a proxy
for the...
The latest results on non-resonant Higgs boson pairs (HH) production in the bbtautau final state (where one Higgs boson decays into a pair of bottom quarks and the other decays into a pair of tau leptons) as well as in the multilepton final state will be presented. Both the gluon fusion and vector boson fusion production mechanisms are investigated. The bbtautau final state gives a good...
Several physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of new particles that can subsequently decay into a pair of Higgs bosons. This talk summarises ATLAS searches for resonant HH production with LHC Run 2 data. Several final states are considered, arising from various combinations of Higgs boson decays.
This talk will present the latest CMS results on the search of non-resonant and resonant di-Higgs production, with one of the Higgs boson decaying to a pair of photons. The search for resonant di-Higgs production covers both the final state with two 125 GeV Higgs bosons as well as the final state with a 125 GeV Higgs boson and a different new scalar. The diphoton decay channel has excellent...
At the LHC, a large range of different Higgs boson production modes and decay channels are studied. To obtain a full overview of the couplings between the Higgs boson and other particles, the data from these individual measurements of production and decay channels are combined. This is also the case for searches for HH production, where even more different final state combinations are...
In the Standard Model, the ground state of the Higgs field is not found at zero but instead corresponds to one of the degenerate solutions minimising the Higgs potential. In turn, this spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking provides a mechanism for the mass generation of nearly all fundamental particles. The Standard Model makes a definite prediction for the Higgs boson self-coupling and...
The determination of the Higgs self-couplings are of primary importance in particle physics and cosmology. They characterise the Higgs potential and thus the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism. Moreover, the structure of the potential could shed some light on the naturalness problem and the self-couplings control the properties of the electroweak phase transition, determining its possible...
