Measurement of fiducial differential cross sections of gluon-fusion production of Higgs bosons decaying to WW → eνµν with the ATLAS detector at $$ \sqrt{s}=8 $$ TeV. J. High Energ. Phys. 8. doi:10.1007/jhep08(2016)104.1029-8479http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:29362018This paper describes a measurement of fiducial and differential cross sections of gluon-fusion Higgs boson production in the H→ WW∗→ eνµν channel, using 20.3 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data. The data were produced at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 8 TeV at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and recorded by the ATLAS detector in 2012. Cross sections are measured from the observed H→ WW∗→ eνµν signal yield in categories distinguished by the number of associated jets. The total cross section is measured in a fiducial region defined by the kinematic properties of the charged leptons and neutrinos. Differential cross sections are reported as a function of the number of jets, the Higgs boson transverse momentum, the dilepton rapidity, and the transverse momentum of the leading jet. The jet-veto efficiency, or fraction of events with no jets above a given transverse momentum threshold, is also reported. All measurements are compared to QCD predictions from Monte Carlo generators and fixed-order calculations, and are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.en-USJournal Article2016-11-0710.1007/JHEP08(2016)104
