Combined Measurement of the Higgs Boson Mass in Pp Collisions at Root S=7 and 8 Tev With the Atlas and Cms Experiments
(American Physical Society, 2015) Aad, G.; Karapınar, Güler; Abbott, B.; Abdallah, J.; Abdinov, O.; Aben, R.; Abolins, M.; Sosa, D.; Karapınar, Güler; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
A measurement of the Higgs boson mass is presented based on the combined data samples of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the CERN LHC in the H --> gamma gamma and H --> ZZ --> 4l decay channels. The results are obtained from a simultaneous fit to the reconstructed invariant mass peaks in the two channels and for the two experiments. The measured masses from the individual channels and the two experiments are found to be consistent among themselves. The combined measured mass of the Higgs boson is m(H) = 125.09 +/- 0.21 (stat) +/- 0.11 (syst) GeV.

Measurements of the Higgs Boson Production and Decay Rates and Constraints on Its Couplings From a Combined ATLAS and CMS Analysis of the LHC pp Collision Data at √s=7 and 8 TeV
(Springer Verlag, 2016-08) Aad, G.; Karapınar, Güler; Abbott, B.; Abdallah, J.; Abdinov, O.; Abeloos, B.; Aben, R.; Woods, N.; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
Combined ATLAS and CMS measurements of the Higgs boson production and decay rates, as well as constraints on its couplings to vector bosons and fermions, are presented. The combination is based on the analysis of five production processes, namely gluon fusion, vector boson fusion, and associated production with a W or a Z boson or a pair of top quarks, and of the six decay modes H -> ZZ; WW, gamma gamma; tau tau; bb, and mu mu. All results are reported assuming a value of 125: 09 GeV for the Higgs boson mass, the result of the combined measurement by the ATLAS and CMS experiments. The analysis uses the CERN LHC proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS and CMS experiments in 2011 and 2012, corresponding to integrated luminosities per experiment of approximately 5 fb(-1) at root s = 7TeV and 20 fb(-1) at root s = 8TeV. The Higgs boson production and decay rates measured by the two experiments are combined within the context of three generic parameterisations: two based on cross sections and branching fractions, and one on ratios of coupling modifiers. Several interpretations of the measurements with more model-dependent parameterisations are also given. The combined signal yield relative to the Standard Model prediction is measured to be 1.09 +/- 0.11. The combined measurements lead to observed significances for the vector boson fusion production process and for the H -> tau tau decay of 5.4 and 5.5 standard deviations, respectively. The data are consistent with the Standard Model predictions for all parameterisations considered.
