Response of the High Granularity Calorimeter HGCAL and Characterisation of the Higgs BosonWith the CMS Experiment at the LHC\nAuthor(s): Matteo Bonanomi\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer International Publishing AG\nISBN-13: 9783031268359, 978-3031268359\nSynopsis\nThis book highlights the most complete characterization of the Higgs boson properties performed to date in the \""golden channel,\"" [url] decay into a pair of Z bosons which subsequently decay into four leptons. The data collected by the CMS experiment in the so-called Run-II data-taking period of the LHC are used to produce an extensive set of results that test in detail the predictions of the Standard Model.\n\nGiven the remarkable predictive power of the SM when including the Higgs boson, possible new physics will require even more extensive studies at higher statistics. A massive upgrade of the detectors is necessary to maintain the current physics perfor.
