Description
Combination of measurements from different Higgs boson productions and decays will maximize the statistical power, and also allow decoupling the production from decay. This talk presents the latest combined measurements of the Higgs boson production cross-sections and decay branching ratios by the ATLAS experiment based on LHC Run 2 data, including Simplified Template Cross Sections (STXS) results and coupling modifier (kappa) tests. The combined measurements are interpreted using the effective field theory framework to probe new physics. Interpretation in the context of Effective Field Theory (EFT) frameworks are also shown.
