T1-3 Energy Frontier: Standard Model, Top and Higgs (PPD) | Frontière d'énergie: modèle standard, quark top et Higgs (PPD)
- Isabel Trigger (TRIUMF)
An overview of recent results in Higgs boson physics obtained with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider located at CERN, Geneva will be presented. It will consist of the description of key measurements about the properties of the recently discovered Higgs boson and of its consistency within the Standard Model of particle physics. The emphasis will be on the analyses performed with...
The hierarchy problem suggests that there must be physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) in the electroweak sector. A deviation from SM-predicted values in the Higgs coupling to vector bosons would allow these new physics in the form of an extension to the Higgs sector. The Georgi-Machacek model introduces scalars in higher isospin multiplets to the SM, including a doubly-charged Higgs, while...
Since the Higgs boson was discovered in 2012, various production and decay modes of the Higgs have been measured. One production mode that has not yet been observed is Higgs production in association with a top quark pair. Discovery of this mode would yield a direct measurement of the Higgs coupling strength to the top quark, a measurement not easily accessible. This talk presents an ongoing...
