标准模型希格斯玻色子质量为125 GeV,其预言的衰变宽度Γ_H为4.1 MeV。本文首次通过共振H→γγ过程与连续态γγ产生过程之间的干涉,获得了对Γ_H的约束,两者均由胶子-胶子融合产生。该分析使用CMS实验在2016年至2018年间收集的质心系能量√s = 13 TeV的质子-质子碰撞数据,对应积分亮度为138 fb⁻¹。在95%置信水平下,观测到的希格斯玻色子宽度上限为Γ_H < 92 MeV,预期上限为138 MeV。这是迄今为止从壳上希格斯玻色子测量得到的对Γ_H最严格的约束。
英文摘要
The standard model Higgs boson, with a mass of 125 GeV, has a predicted decay width, $Γ_\mathrm{H}$, of 4.1 MeV. This Letter presents the first constraint on $Γ_\mathrm{H}$ obtained through the interference between the resonant H $\to$ $γγ$ process and the continuum $γγ$ production, both produced via gluon-gluon fusion. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment between 2016 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The observed (expected) limit on the Higgs boson width is $Γ_\mathrm{H}$ $\lt$ 92 (138) MeV at 95% confidence level. This is the most stringent constraint on $Γ_\mathrm{H}$ from on-shell Higgs boson measurements to date.
