Measurement of the Higgs boson mass in the H→ ZZ* → 4 and H → γγ channels with s=13 TeV pp collisions using the ATLAS detector

Abstract

The mass of the Higgs boson is measured in the H→ ZZ* → 4 and in the H→ γγ decay channels with 36.1 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector in 2015 and 2016. The measured value in the H→ ZZ* → 4 channel is mHZZ* = 124.79 0.37 GeV, while the measured value in the H→ γγ channel is mHγ γ = 124.93 0.40 GeV. Combining these results with the ATLAS measurement based on 7 TeV and 8 TeV proton-proton collision data yields a Higgs boson mass of mH=124.97 0.24 GeV.
