dc.description.abstractA measurement is presented of differential cross sections for Higgs boson (H) production in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV. The analysis exploits the H → γ γ decay in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1 collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The cross section is measured as a function of the kinematic properties of the diphoton system and of the associated jets. Results corrected for detector effects are compared with predictions at next-to-leading order and next-to next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics, as well as with predictions beyond the standard model. For isolated photons with pseudorapidities |η| < 2.5, and with the photon of largest and next-to-largest transverse momentum (pγ T ) divided by the diphoton mass mγ γ satisfying the respective conditions of pγ T /mγ γ > 1/3 and >1/4, the total fiducial cross section is 32 ± 10 fb.en_US
