Measurement and interpretation of differential cross sections for Higgs boson production at √s = 13 TeV
Differential Higgs boson (H) production cross sections are sensitive probes for physics beyond the standard model. New physics may contribute in the gluon-gluon fusion loop, the dominant Higgs boson production mechanism at the LHC, and manifest itself through deviations from the distributions pred...

| description | Differential Higgs boson (H) production cross sections are sensitive probes for physics beyond the
standard model. New physics may contribute in the gluon-gluon fusion loop, the dominant Higgs boson
production mechanism at the LHC, and manifest itself through deviations from the distributions predicted
by the standard model. Combined spectra for the H → γγ , H → ZZ, and H → bb decay channels and
the inclusive Higgs boson production cross section are presented, based on proton-proton collision data
recorded with the CMS detector at √s = 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1.
The transverse momentum spectrum is used to place limits on the Higgs boson couplings to the top,
bottom, and charm quarks, as well as its direct coupling to the gluon field. No significant deviations
from the standard model are observed in any differential distribution. The measured total cross section is
61.1 ± 6.0 (stat) ± 3.7 (syst) pb, and the precision of the measurement of the differential cross section of
the Higgs boson transverse momentum is improved by about 15% with respect to the H → γγ channel
