The Higgs boson revealed: What current experiments teach us about this unique quantum state — •Karsten Köneke — II. Physikalisches Institut, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Göttingen, Germany

At the heart of the Standard Model of particle physics lies the Higgs boson – an exceptional elementary particle distinguished not only by its spin-0 nature. It plays a crucial role within the quantum realm of particle physics in generating the masses of gauge bosons, fermions, and even itself. The Higgs boson is deeply connected to fundamental questions in quantum physics, the early stages of the Universe, and even the underpinnings of everyday chemistry. In this talk, I will present the latest Higgs boson measurement results from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. I will also discuss ongoing efforts to observe the rare production of Higgs boson pairs – an essential step toward probing the structure of the Higgs potential.
