Higgs boson self-coupling constraints from single Higgs, double Higgs and Electroweak measurements
Abstract: We set constraints on the trilinear Higgs boson self-coupling, $\lambda_3$, by combining the information coming from the $W$ mass and leptonic effective Weinberg angle, electroweak precision observables, with the single Higgs boson analyses targeting the $\gamma \gamma,\, ZZ*,\, WW*, \,\tau+ \tau-$ and $\bar{b} b$ decay channels and the double Higgs boson analyses in the $b\bar{b}b\bar{b}, \, b\bar{b}b \tau+ \tau-$ and $b\bar{b}b \gamma \gamma$ decay channels, performed by the ATLAS collaboration. With the assumption that the new physics affects only the Higgs potential, values outside the interval $ -1.8\, \lambda_3{\rm SM} < \lambda_3 < 9.2 \, \lambda_3{\rm SM}$ are excluded at $95\%$ confidence level. With respect to similar analyses that do not include the information coming from the electroweak precision observables our analysis shows a stronger constraint on both positive and negative values of $\lambda_3$.
