Název v původním jazyce

Search for the decay of the Higgs boson to a Z boson and a light pseudoscalar particle decaying to two photons

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

A search for the decay of the Higgs boson to a ZZ boson and a light, pseudoscalar particle, aa, decaying respectively to two leptons and to two photons is reported. The search uses the full LHC Run 2 proton-proton collision data at s=13s ​=13 TeV, corresponding to 139 fb−1−1 collected by the ATLAS detector. This is one of the first searches for this specific decay mode of the Higgs boson, and it probes unexplored parameter space in models with axion-like particles (ALPs) and extended scalar sectors. The mass of the aa particle is assumed to be in the range 0.1-33 GeV. The data are analysed in two categories: a merged category where the photons from the aa decay are reconstructed in the ATLAS calorimeter as a single cluster, and a resolved category in which two separate photons are detected. The main background processes are from Standard Model ZZ boson production in association with photons or jets.
