We detail a simulation of Higgs boson production via gluon fusion, accurate at next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling, including matching to a parton shower, yielding a fully exclusive, hadron-level description of the final-state. The approach relies on the POWHEG method for merging the NLO Higgs plus jet cross-section with the parton shower, and on the MINLO method to simultaneously achieve NLO accuracy for inclusive Higgs boson production. The NNLO accuracy is reached by a reweighting procedure making use of the HNNLO program.

    hep-ex 2025-07 accept novelty 4.0

    Updated ATLAS search for HH → bbγγ with 308 fb⁻¹ yields observed μ_HH = 0.9^{+1.4}_{-1.1}, 95% CL limit μ_HH < 3.7, and κ_λ in [-1.6, 6.6].

    hep-ex 2026-05 accept novelty 3.0

    ATLAS measures the fiducial cross-section for H to four leptons as 3.65 fb matching the SM prediction of 3.68 fb, with signal strength 0.99 and differential distributions all consistent with expectations.
