Search for dimuon Higgs decays in the SM — Adrian Perieanu, •Oliver Rieger, and Peter Schleper — Universität Hamburg
A search for the standard model Higgs boson decaying into two muons is described. The analysis is based on 2016 LHC data recorded by the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1. A Boosted Decision Tree (BDT) is used to distinguish the kinematics of signal and background events. All events are categorized according to their BDT response and dimuon mass resolution. Limits are set on the cross section of the Higgs boson decaying into two muons for mass hypotheses between 120 and 130 GeV. Furthermore, first studies of the 2017 dataset are presented.
