Description

Higgs boson production cross-sections in proton-proton collisions are measured in the H→$WW^∗$→eνμν decay channel. The results are obtained from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 /fb from √s=13 TeV pp collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The product of the $H→WW^∗$ branching fraction times the gluon-gluon fusion and vector-boson fusion cross-sections are measured to be 11.4$^{+1.2}_{-1.1}$(stat.)$^{+1.8}_{-1.7}$(syst.) pb and 0.50$^{+0.24}_{-0.22}$(stat.)±0.17(syst.) pb, respectively, in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.
