Moreover, it is of great interest the observation of the interaction of the Higgs boson with itself, known as the Higgs boson self-coupling. The self-coupling is very loosely constrained by EWK precision measurements therefore new physics effects could induce large deviations from its SM expectation. While double Higgs production can be used to directly constrain the Higgs boson self-coupling, the latter can be also constrained by exploiting higher-order electroweak corrections to single Higgs boson production. A combined measurement of both results yields the overall highest precision, and reduces model dependence by allowing for the simultaneous determination of the single Higgs boson couplings. Results for this combined measurement are presented based on pp collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector. https://osu.zoom.us/j/7063435171 Zoom presentation Department of Physics physics@osu.edu America/New_York public
