Search for Standard Model VH(→bb̅)

Matthew is part of the ATLAS analysis group performing a search for a standard model Higgs boson being radiated by an off-shell massive vector boson which decays to a pair of bottom quarks. 

Recent news from the group:

• A first LHC sighting of the Higgs boson in its favourite decay

Recent papers from the group:

• Evidence for the H→bb decay with the ATLAS detector (ATLAS-CONF-2017-041)
• Search for the Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a vector boson and decaying to a bb̅ pair in pp collisions at 13 TeV using the ATLAS detector (2016)
