With the discovery of the Higgs boson a new era started with direct experimental information on the physics behind the breaking of the electroweak symmetry. This breaking plays a fundamental role in our understanding of particle physics and sits at the high-energy frontier beyond which we expect new physics that supersedes the Standard Model. The Higgs boson (inclusive and differential) production and decay rates offer a new way to probe this frontier.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-08-02T15:31:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "higgs physics", "higgs boson", "direct experimental information", "decay rates offer", "weak interactions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
