Description
The Higgs boson in its vector boson fusion production mode and its decay to a pair of W bosons that in turn decay leptonically to a eνμν final state, is probed. The Large Hadron Collider delivered proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV between 2015 and 2018 which were recorded by the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. Deep Neural Network is exploited in the analysis. The total cross section for Higgs boson production by vector-boson fusion times the H→WW∗ branching ratio is measured to be 0.75+0.19−0.16 pb. The results are consistent with Standard Model expectations of 0.81±0.02 pb
