Description
In 2012, the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations announced the discovery of a new state with a mass around 125 GeV, compatible with the Standard Model Higgs boson. The measurements of this new particle’s properties are important to test the predictions of the Standard Model.
A measurement of the Higgs-beauty quark coupling through the Higgs boson production associated with a Z or W boson, where H decays to b-bbar and the Z/W to leptons, is presented. The analysis is based on 36.2/fb data from p-p collisions at 13 TeV centre-of-mass energy, collected by CMS in 2016. An excess is observed in data with a corresponding significance of 3.3𝜎, making this measurement the first evidence for this process within the CMS collaboration.
