Abstract:
A search is presented for lepton-flavor violating decays of the Higgs boson to and . The analysis is based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of , collected at the CMS detector of the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of . No significant excess has been found, and the results are interpreted in terms of upper limits on lepton-flavor violating branching fractions of the Higgs boson. The observed and expected upper limits on the branching fractions are, respectively, and and and set at confidence level.Note:
- Preliminary results
- Monte-Carlo
- p p: colliding beams
- Higgs particle: leptonic decay
- p p: scattering
- lepton: flavor: violation
- Higgs particle: branching ratio: upper limit
- CERN LHC Coll
- numerical calculations: Monte Carlo
