With the full LHC Run 2 pp collision dataset collected at 13 TeV, very detailed measurements of Higgs boson properties can be performed using its decays into bosons. This talk presents measurements of Higgs boson properties using decays into bosons and their combination with fermionic decays, including production mode cross sections and simplified template cross sections, as well as their...

Several theories beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of new particles decaying into pairs of gauge bosons. These states generally have masses larger than that of the Higgs boson, while some theories predict resonances with masses smaller than it. The latest ATLAS results on searches for such resonances in final states with leptons and photons based on pp collision data collected at...

The LHC is exploring electroweak (EW) physics at the scale EW symmetry is broken. As the LHC and new high energy colliders push our understanding of the Standard Model to ever-higher energies, it will be possible to probe not only the breaking of but also the restoration of EW symmetry. We propose to observe EW restoration in double EW boson production via the convergence of the Goldstone...

Charged Higgs from Higgs doublets generally couples to fermions thus mainly decay to sermonic modes. However, the inert doublets cannot have such two-body decays and mainly decays via three-body. Even then the coupling of charged Higgs with Z and W bosons are absent at the tree-level due to custodial symmetry. SU(2) triplet Higgs boson with Y=0 hyper charge breaks the custodial symmetry...

We will see how addition of scalar from different SU(2) representations, i.e.

We numerically investigate the B+L violation process by performing three-dimensional lattice simulations of a unified scenario of first-order phase transitions and the sphaleron generation. The simulation results indicate that the Chern-Simons number changes along with the helical magnetic field production when the sphaleron decay occurs. Based on these numerical results, we then propose a...

The LHC has not discovered any New Physics beyond the anticipated $h(125)$ boson, pushing the SUSY scale to multi-TeV, and new ideas abound for out-of-the-box searches, or Effective Field Theory with high cutoff scale. But, have we exhausted dimension-4 operators involving sub-TeV particles that are not exotic (non-XLP)? We advocate the existence of an extra Higgs doublet that possessess extra...

Testing the Yukawa couplings of the Higgs boson to quarks and leptons is important to understand the origin of fermion masses. The talk presents several new measurements in Higgs boson decays to two bottom quarks or two tau leptons, searches for Higgs boson decays to two charm quarks or two muons, as well as indirect constraints of the charm-Yukawa coupling. The production of Higgs bosons in...

Combining measurements of many production and decay channels of the observed Higgs boson allows for the highest possible measurement precision for the properties of the Higgs boson and its interactions. These combined measurements are interpreted in various ways; specific scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model are tested, as well as a generic extension in the framework of the Standard...

Since the first idea by Brout, Engler and Higgs in 1964, the Higgs boson had been searched for intensively. Finally, it was discovered at a mass of about 125 GeV in 2012 by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. While currently all measurements of e.g. cross sections and branching ratios show a good agreement with the Standard Model predictions, there are...

The discovery of the Higgs boson with the mass of about 125 GeV completed the particle content predicted by the Standard Model. Even though this model is well established and consistent with many measurements, it is not capable to solely explain some observations. Many Supersymmetric extensions addressing such shortcomings introduce additional Higgs-like bosons which can be either neutral,...

Many new physics models, including supersymmetric extensions to the Standard Model such as two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs), predict the existence of new particles decaying into two bosons (W, Z, photon, or Higgs bosons) making these important signatures in the search for new physics. Searches for such diboson resonances have been performed in final states with different numbers of leptons,...

Precision measurement of the Higgs boson properties is an important topic at the LHC and future collider experiments. We studied the potential to directly probe the maginitude and CP phase of the top quark Yukawa coupling in $t\bar th$ production with $h\to b\bar b$. The BDRS algorithm is used to tag the boosted Higgs, while the $t\bar t$ rest frame is constructed using $M_2$ assisted...

$Z$ boson being a spin-one particle provides eight polarization parameters. We show how the $Z$ boson polarization can be used to study the $ZH$ production at future $e^+e^−$ colliders and at the LHC. Using the spin density matrix of the $Z$-boson we calculate the 8 independent polarization parameters which are sensitive to anomalous gauge-Higgs couplings. We then estimate bounds on the...

Abstract: We probe anomalous HZZ coupling through single Higgs boson production at the Large Hadron-electron collider with 60 GeV (7 TeV) of electron (proton) energy. The sensitivity of CP-even and CP-odd anomalous couplings are assessed through azimuthal angle difference between scattered electron and forward jets along with cross-section as a function of luminosity. Comparative studies for...

Boosted top quark tagging is one of the challenging tasks in high energy physics experiments, in particular in exploring new physics signals at the LHC. Several techniques are already developed to tag boosted top quark in its hadronic decay channel, and recently tagging in the semi leptonic channel also has been receiving a lot of attention. In this current study we try to develop...
