How to Study the Higgs Boson in its Bosonic Decays — •Benedict Winter — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Freiburg

Measurements of the Higgs boson are means to probe electroweak symmetry breaking and the generation of the elementary particles’ masses. Studies of Higgs boson decays to pairs of W and Z bosons and photons are cornerstones of the investigations by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC. This presentation illuminates how the Higgs boson’s couplings as well as its mass and width are measured. It demonstrates how physics beyond the Standard Model is searched for in Higgs boson production and what opportunities will be provided by future LHC datasets.
