Description
This talk will describe the search for the dimuon decay of the Higgs boson using the data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{−1}$ collected with the ATLAS detector in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. Events are divided into several channels to target either the gluon-gluon fusion (ggF) Higgs production or the vector-boson-fusion (VBF) Higgs production using boosted decision trees (BDT). The measurement is then performed with a simultaneous fit to the dimuon mass in those regions. A signal significance of X sigma is observed, while a signal significance of Y sigma is expected.
