For BDT input variable distributions, see Supplemental Material, supmt.pdf: https://journals.aps.org/prl/supplemental/10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.061802/supmt.pdf A test of CP invariance in Higgs boson production via vector-boson fusion has been performed in the H→γγ channel using 139  fb−1 of proton-proton collision data at √s=13  TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The optimal observable method is used to probe the CP structure of interactions between the Higgs boson and electroweak gauge bosons, as described by an effective field theory. No sign of CP violation is observed in the data. Constraints are set on the parameters describing the strength of the CP-odd component in the coupling between the Higgs boson and the electroweak gauge bosons in two effective field theory bases: ˜d in the HISZ basis and cH˜W in the Warsaw basis. The results presented are the most stringent constraints on CP violation in the coupling between Higgs and weak bosons. The 95% C.L. constraint on ˜d is derived for the first time and the 95% C.L. constraint on cH˜W has been improved by a factor of 5 compared to the previous measurement. 2023-10-09T10:13:24Z 2023-10-09T10:13:24Z 2023-08-07 journal article G.
