Combined measurements of the Higgs boson production and decay rates in HZZ4H\to ZZ^*\to 4\ell and HγγH\to\gamma\gamma final states using pppp collision data at s=\sqrt{s}= 13 TeV in the ATLAS experiment

This note presents combined measurements based on Higgs boson production cross sections and branching ratios using more than 13.3 fb1^{-1} of proton-proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC at s=\sqrt{s}= 13 TeV. The combination is based on the analyses of the HγγH\to\gamma\gamma and HZZ4H\to ZZ^*\to 4\ell decay channels. Results are derived for these two decay modes and five sets of production processes for a Higgs boson rapidity yH<2.5|y_H| < 2.5 and for a Higgs boson mass of 125.09±0.21(stat)±0.11(syst)125.09 \pm 0.21{\rm (stat)} \pm 0.11{\rm (syst)} GeV. The global signal strength, defined as the ratio in the full phase space (including yH2.5|y_H| \geq 2.5) between the observed total signal yield and the Standard Model expectation, is measured to be \mu = 1.13\,^{+0.18}_{-0.17}. The cross section of ppH+Xpp \to H + X in the full phase space is determined from fiducial cross section measurements to be 59.0^{+9.7}_{-9.2} ~(\mathrm{stat.})~ ^{+4.4}_{-3.5} (\mathrm{syst.}) pb, to be compared with the Standard Model prediction of 55.53.4+2.455.5^{+2.4}_{-3.4} pb. No significant deviation from the Standard Model expectations is observed.
