Properties of the Higgs Boson Discovered at the Large Hadron Collider

Abstract

In their search for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson, the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations discovered a narrow bosonic particle with a mass of approximately 125 GeV during the first Large Hadron Collider run. In this article, we discuss the search methodologies that led to this discovery as well as the precise measurements of the mass of this boson, constraints on its intrinsic width, its production rate, its coupling to several SM particles, and tests of its spin-parity quantum numbers. All the properties of this boson, within measurement uncertainties, are remarkably consistent with those of the SM Higgs boson.
