Expérimental
The Higgs boson was discovered by the CMS and ATLAS experiments at the CERN LHC in 2012, and understanding its properties remains an important part of the physics programme at the LHC. At the same time, we can use this particle, and the others in the standard model of particle physics, to learn about the possible presence of new physics. In this project, the student will develop an analysis strategy for measuring both the Higgs boson and other SM particles simultaneously, to be optimally sensitive to new physics.
