Combination and interpretation of fiducial differential Higgs boson production cross sections at $ \sqrt{s}= $ 13 TeV | ||

Abstract: The Higgs boson fiducial differential production cross sections are sensitive probes for the presence of physics beyond the standard model. New physics may contribute to the gluon-gluon fusion loop, the dominant Higgs boson production mechanism at the LHC, and manifest itself as deviations from the expected standard model distributions. In this work we measure combined spectra from measurements performed in four of the dominant Higgs decay channels ($ \gamma\gamma $, ZZ, WW, $ \tau\tau $) using proton-proton collision data recorded with the CMS detector at $ \sqrt{s}= $ 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The combined spectra provided are extrapolated to the full phase space. The fiducial measurements are then used to compute limits on Higgs couplings using the $ \kappa $-framework and the standard model effective field theory. | ||

Figure 1:
Measurement of the total differential cross section as a function of $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{H}} $, $ N_{\mathrm{jets}} $, $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{j}_1} $ and $ |y_{\mathrm{H}}| $. The combined spectrum is shown as black points with error bars indicating the 68% confidence interval. The systematic component of the uncertainty is shown in gray. The SM prediction is reported for different generators. The rightmost bins of the distributions are overflow bins, and normalized by the bin width of the last but one bin. In cases where the systematic uncertainty band covers only one side of the data point, the systematic uncertainty on the other side is negligible. |

Summary |
A combination of differential cross sections for the differential observables $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{H}} $, $ N_{\mathrm{jets}} $, $ |y_{\mathrm{H}}| $, $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{j}_1} $, $ m_{\mathrm{jj}} $, $ |\Delta\eta_{\mathrm{jj}}| $ and $ \tau^{\mathrm{j}}_{\mathrm{C}} $ is presented, using 138 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data obtained at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV. The obtained spectra are obtained on data from the $ \mathrm{H} \rightarrow \gamma \gamma $, $ \mathrm{H} \rightarrow \mathrm{Z} \mathrm{Z}^{(*)} \rightarrow 4\ell $, $ \mathrm{H} \rightarrow \mathrm{W^+} \mathrm{W^-}^{(*)} \rightarrow \mathrm{e}^{\pm} \mu^{\mp} \nu_{l} \overline{\nu}_{l} $ and $ \mathrm{H} \rightarrow \tau^{+} \tau^{-} $ (boosted and not). No significant deviations from the standard model predictions are observed in any differential distribution. The obtained $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{H}} $ spectra were interpreted using the $ \kappa $-framework and the SMEFT framework: in the former, multiple couplings were varied simultaneously following the studies reported in [10], while in the latter a principal component analysis was performed to identify non-flat directions of the likelihood. In both cases, the results are compatible with the standard model predictions. |

Additional Figure 1:
The 95% confidence level (CL) limits for each Wilson coefficient $ c_i $, obtained while setting the others to their SM value, interpreted in terms of the energy scale $ \Lambda $ for three different assumptions for the value of the coefficient as indicated in the legend. For limits that are not symmetrical around the SM value of zero, the absolute value of the looser limit is used. |

Additional Figure 2:
The 95% CL profiled limits for the ten eigenvectors (EVs) with highest eigenvalues, interpreted in terms of the energy scale $ \Lambda $ for three different assumptions for the value of the coefficient as indicated in the legend. For limits that are not symmetrical around the SM value of zero, the absolute value of the looser limit is used. |

Additional Figure 3:
Summary plot of the impacts of the different analysis $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\mathrm{H}} $ bins on the fitted eigenvectors obtained by the PCA. The choice of the different values for which the impacts are shown is chosen to be the observed 95% CL limit. The value of $ \mu(c_i) $ is computed by substituting the previously mentioned value of $ c_i $ into the linearized parametrization while leaving all the other eigenvectors fixed to their SM value. |
