Description
Abstract: The investigation of the Higgs boson decays to four leptons has played a pivotal role in its discovery and the characterization of its properties. These studies encompass a range of measurements, including standard mass measurements, analysis of the CP structure of the Higgs coupling within the framework of Effective field theory (EFT), and determination of its width. Beyond characterizing the Higgs boson, deviations in these precision measurements, can provide evidence for the existence of new fields and particles. I will be discussing recent results from the CMS experiment at the LHC and shed light on the experimental tools and techniques employed in these measurements.
About the speaker: Dr Savvas Kyriacou, a University of Cyprus alumnus, obtained his PhD at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in 2019. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University, and a member of the CMS Collaboration at the CERN LHC. Dr Kyriacou's interests include beyond standard model phenomena signatures, novel experimental techniques to analyze the LHC data, effective field theory as a tool for colliders, and measurements of the Higgs boson properties.
