@misc{10481/96011, year = {2016}, month = {8}, url = {https://hdl.handle.net/10481/96011}, abstract = {This paper describes a measurement of fiducial and differential cross sections of gluon-fusion Higgs boson production in the H → WW∗→ eνμν channel, using 20.3 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data. The data were produced at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 8 TeV at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and recorded by the ATLAS detector in 2012. Cross sections are measured from the observed H→WW∗→ eνμν signal yield in categories distinguished by the number of associated jets. The total cross section is measured in a fiducial region defined by the kinematic properties of the charged leptons and neutrinos. Differential cross sections are reported as a function of the number of jets, the Higgs boson transverse momentum, the dilepton rapidity, and the transverse momentum of the leading jet. The jet-veto efficiency, or fraction of events with no jets above a given transverse momentum threshold, is also reported. All measurements are compared to QCD predictions from Monte Carlo generators and fixed-order calculations, and are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.}, organization = {CERN}, organization = {MINECO}, organization = {EPLANET}, organization = {ERC}, organization = {FP7}, organization = {Horizon 2020}, organization = {Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions}, organization = {Generalitat de Catalunya}, organization = {Generalitat Valenciana}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments)}, title = {Measurement of fiducial differential cross sections of gluon-fusion production of Higgs bosons decaying to WW∗→eνμν with the ATLAS detector at √s = 8 TeV}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP08(2016)104}, author = {Aad, G. and Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio and Atlas Collaboration, /}, }
