Issue Date: | 2020 | Publisher: | Elsevier | metadata.degois.publication.title: | Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics | metadata.degois.publication.volume: | 800 | Abstract: | This letter presents a combination of searches for Higgs boson pair production using up to 36.1fb−1of proton–proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy √s=13TeVrecorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The combination is performed using six analyses searching for Higgs boson pairs decaying into the b¯bb¯ b, b¯bW+W−, b¯ bτ+τ−, W+W−W+W−, b¯ bγγand W+W−γγfinal states. Results are presented for non-resonant and resonant Higgs boson pair production modes. No statistically significant excess in data above the Standard Model predictions is found. The combined observed (expected) limit at 95% confidence level on the non-resonant Higgs boson pair production cross-section is 6.9(10) times the predicted Standard Model cross-section. Limits are also set on the ratio (κλ) of the Higgs boson self-coupling to its Standard Model value. This ratio is constrained at 95% confidence level in observation (expectation) to −5.0 <κλ<12.0(−5.8 <κλ<12.0). In addition, limits are set on the production of narrow scalar resonances and spin-2 Kaluza–Klein Randall–Sundrum gravitons. Exclusion regions are also provided in the parameter space of the habemus Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and the Electroweak Singlet Model. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/106541 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.physletb.2019.135103 | Rights: | openAccess |
