Differential cross section of the Higgs boson measured in the diphoton decay channel with the ATLAS detector

This talk presents differential cross section measurements\n of the Higgs boson, performed in the diphoton decay channel.\n The dataset used corresponds to $20.3 fb^{-1}$ of proton-proton \n collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8 TeV$, produced by the LHC and collected\n by the ATLAS detector in 2012.\n With i...

Sumario:This talk presents differential cross section measurements\n of the Higgs boson, performed in the diphoton decay channel.\n The dataset used corresponds to $20.3 fb^{-1}$ of proton-proton \n collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8 TeV$, produced by the LHC and collected\n by the ATLAS detector in 2012.\n With its high signal selection efficiency the diphoton decay\n channel is well suited to probe the underlying kinematic properties of the signal production and decay. Measurements for\n several diphoton and jet distributions are made for isolated\n photons within the geometric acceptance of the detector and they are\n corrected for experimental acceptance and resolution.\n Results are compared to theoretical predictions at the particle level.
