Description

Recently, the ATLAS and CMS experiments have reported the discovery of a Higgs like resonance at the LHC. Determining the spin and CP quantum numbers or the form of its interaction Lagrangian channel-by-channel will be the next step towards a more precise understanding of the new state. We show how weak-boson-fusion Higgs production and associated ZH production can be used to separate different spin and CP states.
