Abstract

Recent measurements of Higgs boson cross-section and properties are presented using up to 139~fb^-1 of proton-proton collision data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider at √(s)~=~13~TeV and recorded by the ATLAS and CMS detectors. Three measurements are discussed. The first is the measurement of Higgs boson production with sizeable transverse momentum decaying to a bb pair. The remaining two measurements exploit the H → WW^* decay channel in various production modes: gluon fusion, vector boson fusion, and production in association with a W or Z boson. The results presented are compatible with Standard Model predictions.
