The observed (expected) significance over the background-only hypothesis for a Higgs boson with a mass of 125.09 GeV is 2.0 sigma (1.7 sigma). The observed upper limit on the cross section times branching ratio for pp -> H -> $\mu$$\mu$is 2.2 times the SM prediction at 95{\%} confidence level, while the expected limit on a H -> $\mu$$\mu$signal assuming the absence (presence) of a SM signal is 1.1(2.0). The best-fit value of the signal strength parameter, defined as the ratio of the observed signal yield to the one expected in the SM, is $\mu$= 1.2 +/- 0.6.", optnote="WOS:000608167600020", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4692), last updated on Thu, 11 Feb 2021 11:53:56 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2020.135980", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.07830", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2020.135980", language="English" }
