Wednesday 4 June 2014 Speaker: Dr Sinead Farrington (Warwick University) Title: "Higgs to tau tau at ATLAS" Abstract: ATLAS and CMS recently reported evidence for the decay to tau pairs of a particle consistent with the newly discovered "Higgs boson". I will describe the analysis of the ATLAS data and the extraction of the coupling strength for the gluon-gluon fusion production and the Vector Boson Fusion production mechanisms.
