Search for Higgs boson pair production in the b(b)over-barWW* decay mode at root s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
2019
Abstract
A search for Higgs boson pair production in the bbWW decay mode is performed in the bb'qq fi nal state using 36.1 fb of proton-proton collision data at a centreof- mass energy of 13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No evidence of events beyond the background expectation is found.
Upper limits on the non-resonant pp ! HH production cross section of 10 pb and on the resonant production cross section as a function of the HH invariant mass are obtained. Resonant production limits are set for scalar and spin-2 graviton hypotheses in the mass range 500 to 3000 GeV.
