The detailed study of the Higgs boson is one of the main tasks of contemporary particle physics. Gluon fusion, the main production channel of Higgs bosons at the LHC, has been successfully modelled in QCD up to $\text{N}^3\text{LO}$. To fully exploit this unprecedent theoretical effort, sub-leading contributions, such as electroweak corrections, must be investigated. I will present the...
The most recent results on non-resonant Higgs bosons pairs production in the final state with two bottom quarks and two tau leptons will be presented. This final state has a sizeable branching fraction (7.3%) and the analysis benefit also from precise tau identification algorithms developed within the CMS collaboration. The analysis targets the gluon-gluon fusion and vector boson fusion...
The observation of the electroweak production of a W+W− pair in association with two jets, with both W bosons decaying leptonically, is reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 138fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 TeV, collected by the CMS detector at the CERN LHC. A signal is observed (expected) with a significance of 5.6 (5.2) standard deviations with...
Jets are collimated bunches of hadrons ubiquitous in the detectors at the LHC. Studying the internal structure of these objects is essential to identify the original objects that originate the jet and to understand the underlying physical process. An important category of Jet Substructure (JSS) observables are Jet Angularities which have been recently calculated in resummed perturbation...
The fundamental SM parameter of the top quark mass can be measured with unprecedented accuracy at LHC due to the large production cross section for top quark pairs, and top quark pairs in association with at least one hard jet. The extraction of this quantity can be achieved using the $\rho_s$ distribution, an observable related to the invariant mass of the t-tbar + jet system. Thereby, the...
We present state-of-the-art SCETlib predictions for the $W$ and $Z/\gamma^*$ transverse-momentum ($q_T$) distributions at the LHC at complete three-loop order in resummed perturbation theory (N$^3$LL$'$) and matched to available fixed order. We pay particular attention to the estimation of theory uncertainties via profile scale variations in such a way that perturbative uncertainties due to...
A search for the dimuon decay of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson is performed using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139/fb collected with the ATLAS detector in Run2 pp collisions at 13 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The observed (expected) significance over the background-only hypothesis for a Higgs boson with a mass of 125.09 GeV is 2.0σ (1.7σ). The observed upper...
