Search for Higgs boson decays into a pair of light bosons in the bbμμ final state in pp collision at √s=13TeV with the ATLAS detector
A search for decays of the Higgs boson into a pair of new spin-zero particles, H→aa, where the a-bosons decay into a b-quark pair and a muon pair, is presented. The search uses 36.1 fb −1 of proton–proton collision data at s=13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in 2015 and 2016. No sig...
