The Higgs boson at the LHC: a glimpse under the peak — •Matthias Schröder — Universität Hamburg

In the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, the Higgs boson is deeply related to the mechanism that creates the masses of elementary particles and, as such, has very characteristic properties, which are different from any other known particle. The large data samples collected during the LHC Run 2 from 2015 to 2018, together with new analysis techniques, allow measurements of Higgs boson production and properties at unprecedented precision. These cover various production and decay channels and include more and more differential measurements. The results play a crucial role in probing the SM and provide a unique window to discover new physics.

In this presentation, I will review the status of Higgs boson measurements by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations and discuss their interpretation within and beyond the SM. Furthermore, I will outline prospects for future measurements at the upcoming LHC Run 3 and at the High-Luminosity LHC.
